Hug a bub or ergo??? HELP

Hi girls

Please help me make a decision between the hug a bub and the ergo. I have been tossing up between the two for ages and now that I have finally had the baby I really need to commit to one or the other. I dont want to get both even though this is probably the best way to do it as this is my last baby - if it wasnt I would would get both. So to all those out there who have an opinion please help me - I dont think my post pregnancy brain is working all that well hence my inability to make a decision LOL!! .

TIA

I bought my HAB while I was pregnant and then couldnt be botheredd learning how to use it until Mason was about 8 weeks old.

Well now i LOVE It. I finally know how to use it properly and it is a god send. He falls asleep in it EVERY time, will go shopping for hours and hours, and its so comfortable :)

jemima- i bought a HAB when my little girl was 8 weeks old, my only regret is not buying it earlier... i cant wait to use it on my new borns in the future.. but in saying that- Eden is now nearly 7 months old and with this years tax return we are buying an ergo... not because the HAB is outgrown but i think it may be a little better to have her on my back sometimes and may be a tad more comfy for longer trips... Eden is a pure carrier babe(been in her pram about 5 times) so is all about grabbing for stuff and being involved... so the HAB isnt working so much for us now for awake shopping trips etc.. but for putting her to sleep in public, i cannot fault it...
So.... my advice is.. get the HAB... then if ur babe is still a carrier lover get the ERGO down the track. U say you dont wanna get both as this is ur last babe... I've heard they bith have great resale value. So id say they are both worth it.
