My pocket sling (otherwise known as ring sling) was one the best things I ever bought. Renee, have a look in the Babywearing forum, there are some great threads there discussing different types. Also, if you are going to be in Brissy at any point, there is a fabulous lady who sells hundreds of different types and you can try them all as well to see what is comfortable for you and easy to use. If you look up carryingaway in google, it should come up. This woman is amazing and she runs workshops too. Well worth a visit. A good babysling is going to make your life SO much easier.
And if you have a second, a sling is even MORE important.....
