Mako, I bought a baba sling first cause I couldnt be bothered with all the wrapping etc with a hug a bub! But Myles hated the sling, so we bought a hug a bub and he loves it! So do i actually, it does take a little time to put it on but its so very supportive across your back! Its quite cool too considering you have so much fabric! So I am now a hug a bub convert! But it all depends on your baby and how much you want to spend! good luck!x
