Hi Gracie!

Just thought I'd throw in my two cent's worth, as I've recently aquired what for us is the perfect sling! I've tried lots of options, and the HaB didn't work for us as my daughter hates facing in and not being able to see .. the out facing position didn't feel right. A 'tube' sling was great for sitting in while shopping but my baby found it too restrictive on her head to nurse in, and it slipped off my shoulder when she slept.

We got a Baba sling a few weeks ago and I LOVE it - for the first time we are comfy feeding in it, sleeping (she feeds to sleep in there without feeling squished), and she can change positions, which she needs as she's an active little person and really easily bored. Suits me too, as different activities seem to suit different possies better. My daughter is now 5 months old, and if I'd tried this first I would have bought it from the word go ... I actually liked HaB, but bub didn't - most bubs do, though. It's pretty easy to get bub in and out after you tie it, but I also liked just a non stretchy long (5-6m) bit of cotton cloth tied in the same way as the HaB. I plan on getting an Ergo when she's bigger, as I find it wonderfully comfortable but it's not as versatile as the Baba at the moment. Hope that helps! :-)

Best wishes with your birth and babywearing!
