hi there! i can highly recommend the the Ellaroo slings. they are a ring style sling with soft padding around the edge so that bubba is more comfy and so are you. because it is a ring style it can fit both you and your partner. DH and I have been using ever since DD was born and she is now 10 months old and still using it. it can be used on the front, hip and back depending on bubs age etc. when they are little they can be lying down (although DD didnt like that too much) or can be curled up facing you against your chest (she loved that way!).

HTH!
