[Arimeh]

Totally depends what you are after, like, do you want a ring sling? A mei tai? A soft structured carrier? A wrap? Heaps of options out there

I bought a baby bjorn and my baby HATED it so we returned it to the shop.

I'd like to join this thread and see what others there are!

We have an Ellaroo ring sling, I love it and we still use it now. But as Arimeh's Eden said, there's heaps of different options.

I wasn't sure how much I would use a sling so I didn't want to spend heaps, so I made myself a mei tai style one. It was simple to make, it cost me $17 and I use it all the time!

It is comfortable and adjustable and I can carry my 10kg bub around for hours with no problems.

hi hun

are you looking for something for your baby born in 2008? If so I would recommend either a mei tai, a soft structured carrier or a woven wrap.

Some brands for you to google - didymos, ergo, dream carriers, kleinsmekker, beetlebums, ellaroo........

thanks guys, I didn't realise how many different types there were out there lol.

Kitt3n - I'm hoping to start ttc #6 very soon so would like one for when this next one comes along. I plan to push DD3 in the pram, have DD2 holding the pram and carrying the baby in the sling. If we manage this right I will end up having 3 kids 4 years and under. The older 3 I don't have to worry about lol. I do have a twin pram but it takes up so much room in the van that I would prefer to use the single. The only way this will bugger up is if I have twins pmsl.

Just remembered I found a site that compared a heap of different types of carriers a little while ago... I'll see if I can find it and pm it to you if I do.
