Should I buy a baby sling or carrier?

[Beach Mama]

I had a cheaper BB style carrier by Ryco - DON'T go near that either! It is ok for DH on the odd occasion and in fact he used it on the weekend but it kills my shoulders.
If you know somebody who can do some simple sewing, you could make a HAB or even a Mei Tei type carrier fairly easily. I bought material for mum to sew both for me, and they will be made in the next week or so. Cost me about $35 for the material for both, as opposed to triple that for both. There are patterns online that you can use to sew them. Good luck!
