    Thanks Cricket, that site is awesome!!!

    I now love the Bubazilla and the Slingling.

    THEN i found Cuddle Pods slings.... a traditional sling but with adjustable strap, and a drop down strap for breastfeeding!!!

    Its SOOOOO hard!!!!

    Do you know if we have any stockists over here for Slinglings??? I couldn't get an international price, but thet have a buy 2, get a third FREE!!!

    I have no idea about whether they are available in Australia. I went for the buy two get one free thing with my sister. Maybe you could find a couple of other people who are interested in getting one, and then share the costs? You can mix and match sizes and styles. My sister and I got one each, and intend to give one as a baby gift, or something, some time. It ended up costing me about $100 Canadian for all three, by the time they got to my door.
    I was also getting overwhelmed by sling choices - there's a whole forum for it, which a dear lady here on BB directed me to (I'll pm you if you're interested) and I posted a thread asking for info on pouch slings, and the more I heard, the more I couldn't decide! My conclusion was, they all have good points and bad points, and you'll probably be fine either way!
    All the best!

    I have no idea either, I keep changing my mind.
    I need one that will stay cool too and is idiot proof, I have enough trouble tying shoe laces.

    I have pretty much decided on getting the 3 for the price of 2 Slinglings!!!!

    They really look great, choice is HUGE, and the reviews are fantastic.... So I think thats what we'll get.

    They also refund in 30 days, or if pregnent and cant return till bubs is here, you can exchange for a better size after bub is here!!!

    I'm getting 3 different colours in 3 different fabrics.... the range is massive!!!

    yeah, after looking I think you may be right.
    I also like that you can order a custom one and they don't charge extra. My DH is a big guy and I don't think most of the other ones would fit him, so be nice for him to be able to carry bubs too.
    I've emailed them and asked how much they will charge for postage to Aus, hopefully it is reasonable.

    Oohh, can you let me know postage too please??

    They do look good dont they??!! And the reviews just rave about them.... 3 for around $80 is just awesome too!!
    Its a deep " pouch" as well which I like. Some slings seem too shallow...

    Nice quick reply from them.

    Shipping for one sling to Australia is $15, and shipping for 2 or 3 slings to Australia is $28. You may check out through our website and the correct shipping cost will be added to your order.
    SO around a hundred bucks for three slings, pretty damn good!
