    I have used an Ergo with 2 of my bubs. I love it! It is easy to use and easy on the back and shoulders. I also have a Hug a Bub but I find it too hot for summer use in my part of the world. I have found the Ergo good for newborns - as long as you have the newborn insert (cost us about $35). Have you looked at the Manduca? Apparently they are very similar to the Ergo.
    Good luck!

    I thought I had replied to this - sorry!

    I have a Kari-Me (sling type carrier) and it was comfortable for hours and hours at a time, even with whiplash and a bad back. I still use it now and DS is three and a half!
