Ok... I have a sling (and I'll use it at the beginning, but I have a bad neck/shoulders from whiplash from a motor vehicle accident in my teens - I can't even wear a loose halterneck anything!) but I think I want a carrier too. Problem is, I just don't know which one and I know nothing about any of the brands out there.

When I was at mothers group when DS was a newborn, one lady had a hug a bub. It looked pretty good.

Today at the markets, I saw a lady with a similar thing, but she was wearing her kid on her back.

I've heard that the ones that let baby curl up into you are better than the ones that let baby's feet dangle.

What are good brands, what do YOU have and how much should I expect to buy one from (and where) and what's a good price for a 2nd hand one?

Thank in advance
