hey all

slings - cap, i had a look at the sleepy wrap on the net and it looks pretty similar to the hugabub. Once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy to put on. The biggest pain I find is if it's raining. Because it's just one long sheet of material, when you first start tying it, inevitably some of it drapes on the floor, so if the floor is wet it could get wet. I tend to put it on before I leave the house then stick bub in it when we get to the shops if that's the case. If you tie it tight enough they don't hang down. It's really comfy as it distributes the weight across your shoulders, back and hips unlike some others where your shoulders take all the load.
If you went for the ergo I think you would need the infant insert. I haven't used the ergo with E, and didn't buy it until A was nearly 1 so can't comment too much on using it with littlies.

Breastfeeding - those of you bfing, do you find your bubs are able to go 3.5-4hrs between feeds? E seems to want to feed about every 3.5hrs but sometimes I find myself giving her a topup before her lunch time sleep. I'm kind of experimenting with it to see if it will help help her sleep longer (mixed results) but wondered if anyone else was doing any sneaky top ups in beween main feeds. If you don't count that, she's having 5 feeds a day with the last 2 pretty close together. I don't think I dropped A to 4 feeds until she was on solids.
