I have a Hug-a-bub and I love it!! It's great for around the house and DD has her day sleeps mostly in the HAB when I'm home by myself bc it's the easiest way for me to settle her without my arms getting sore! lol.
I also like using it when we go out because it's so comfy and I can walk around with her in it for ages and not get sore. But, it does take time to tie and so I was thinking of getting some type of sling that is really quick and easy to put on for times when I just need to quickly run into the shops, etc. I don't really know what types there are so would love your suggestions! Something that's easy to breastfeed in would be good too? I can't do it in the HAB.
I second Mel on the Ergo - I have one of them, its great, DD loves it!
Haven't learned how to BF in it yet but my cousin (who has just had her 4th bub) wears baby in it all day running around after the other 3 kids and can BF in it like a champ...
I have a Baba Sling, and I love it. I have tried the HAB and find it too fiddley (my wife loves it, though) and I could never get the Ergo right. The Baba Sling is nice and simple, and quite comfortable.
I had the Peanut Shell and loved it - used it from birth til DS was about 4 months. You can use it longer if you wear it differently but I just found DS was getting too heavy for me.
There are no buckles or fasteners - just throw it over your head. You can BF using this sling. I loved it for those quick trips to the shop or just for around the house.
Love my baba sling!
takes seconds to put on and put bubba in and he falls asleep in seconds when he is in it!
He loves it
it also is great when he is awake and he can sit up and see and i still have hands free!
mwah
Lurv my Ellaroo...functional, quick and easy (can be shoved in nappy bags and handbags) and comes in all kinds of pretty colours and patterns. we have used it from the time DD was a newborn and are still using it! it hasn't faded, or been damaged, was a little exxy but i would buy all over again if i could.
she has a website but not sure of it exactly, just type it into a search and it should come up.
