Hands free, and Jazz was a in-arms newborn and would barely settle anywhere else so the sling was like my lifesaver, I remember the first day i got it and OMG I couldn't believe I had gone a few weeks without it!!! Plus I could bfing walking around the shops, which was an added bonus. It is FANTASTIC now she can sit in the hip carry if we need to pop into bunnings or the supermarket - saves carrying her (11kg gets heavy! lol) or putting her into the trolley (eeeeeeeeeeewwwwww). She can still sleep in it, as long as i am walking around, and she sleeps against my chest which is nice (especially since she isn't s cuddley bub so sometimes this is the closest i get to s cuddle from her!).
The handsfee side of things, bub being alot more settled. My dd loves to be on my back when out and about and if she having an unsettled afternoon and I need to get dinner for the older kids I can put her on my back and she settels down. I wished I had found the carrier love with my other two. I now use mai tai and a scc alot.
Blue was also an in arms newborn and would cry blue murder if he got put down.
I love love love my HAB because I have my hands free, he's settled and a hell of a lot more content and it makes walking around the shops a breeze ... no bulky pram or gross supermarket trolleys!!
I agree with everyone else so far - Hands free!! I use pouches so I can easily feed in them, and when DD3 arrives she will spend a lot of time either in the sling or in the capsule, because of the kindy run and other things that come from having 2 toddlers in house.
