Please recommend your baby carrier... only a month old

Never found an infant carrier I liked with my DS (#1) and especially want to find one for my DD (3 weeks old) that I can use now, I am considering a sling but don't have any idea what to get, any suggestions what sling is good or other style of carrier you recommend???

TIA

We have the bjorn and sling. We have only used both a few times. I prefer the the sling for traveling by plane.

I think a Baby Bjorn is a necessity, but for later on.

I loooove this ring sling. I use it for several hours every single day, in the house & out. My baby loves to be held & sometimes will only sleep while being held and I have a 2 1/2 year old, so this is my #1 baby item for the past 3 months. I can't imagine someone NOT liking it. Although my back & shoulders get sore if I'm walking around in it for over an hour. But it's worth it!

It's on sale for $54 now at Kohl's.

ETA: The main reason I like it better than my other wrap is because there is no tying to do. It's already in one piece, I just throw it over my head & shoulder, stick the baby in & I'm set. I hate tying up my other wrap- it takes me awhile and there is so much fabric. I also like it better than my Peanut Shell because that one is too tight against my body. The Balboa Baby has a nice deep pocket. Geez, I didn't realize how many carriers I own...

I love the Baby Bjorn. My DD loves it too.

I tried several slings but none worked for her. We tried the Native Carrier, Peanut Shell and hot sling.

I love the original ring sling for newborn - had the bjorn baby carrier for my first one baby but that just got too uncomfortable when the baby got heavier and it pulled on my back. I have the ERGO now and LOVE ITso much - wish I knew about this before I had my first baby - it certainly saved me from having back pains.

I also loved the ergo, really comfy and easy to store and transport.
