Hi everyone,

ok so this is our first bub and I really like the idea of baby wearing. I've done a bit of research and would love an ergo, will probably end up getting one later (will try it with bub since can't really use it when newborn unless I get the insert but seems a bit flimsy). My only problem is deciding what to do for when they are little. I’m due in the hottest time of the year here in Perth so I'm also trying to work out what’s best for that. I have been given as hand-me-downs a baby bjorn and a "snug as bug" adjustable ring sling.

I really like the idea of the sling specially for breast feeding but it seems massive (I am 1.64m or 5'4' and dh is 6'5' or 1.98m ), the person who gave it to me never used it cause her baby got lost in it. It seems that the bub would sit way to low and put pressure on my back.

What do you guys think, do I just stick with the sling and baby bjorn until I can put bub in the ergo? Also I guess wait until bub is born and try them out?? Or should I get another carrier now so I am ready. I was thinking of getting a fitted sling probably a nurture sling or hotsling? I like the HAB but it seems really hard to put on and probably to hot for summer.

Thanks guys sorry for the long post Mel
