Recommend your sling, please!
i didn't use a sling with DS... i had one sling-like thing that i bought at BRU and disliked. after that, i used the baby bjorn on occasion and that's about it.
but with a toddler AND a newborn, i'm thinking that i'll be wearing DD much more.
there are SO many slings out there, i don't know where to start.
i guess i'm looking for something that i can use to wear her and also sometimes for BFing on the go.
suggestions/recommendations??
THANKS!!!!!

Re: Recommend your sling, please!
I have never used one, but I am in between peanut shell or hotsling, from what I have seen other moms using.

Re: Recommend your sling, please!
My sister has and love sthe MOBY wrap andI saw a mom with one today and she said she loves it too. I was going to get a BabyHAwK as I knew a mom who had one and really loved it but now I think I might get the Moby wrap...check them both out.

I have the Moby wrap and once you get the hang of how to wrap, especially with a newborn, it's great. But it does take some practice.
I'm looking into a hotsling this time around...just seems much easier.

I have a Moby Wrap. It does take a little getting used to, but It fits so snug and there are a lot of different ways that you could wear the baby. Chloe's 5 months old and she likes facing out now...

I LOVE my Kangaroo Korner sling.
I haven't tried to BF in it though-- but I love that it's adjustable and it's SO comfortable. And you can wear the baby a lot of different ways.

Re: Recommend your sling, please!
i have the moby wrap and absolutely love it - it's been a lifesaver (and you get so many compliments while wearing it too!  )! dd's actually in it right now as i'm typing. you can so so many things with it too (i can't wait until she's older and can face out/go on my back) - i was nursing her in the supermarket the other day while paying for groceries - completely hands free and no one knew! it really is great - they get to be nice and tightly next to you and you can customize it to how you need to use it. it takes about one time to learn how to put it on and then you're good to go. i say give it a try!

Re: Recommend your sling, please!
I wanted so bad to use a sling with DS.
I had 2 and wasn't thrilled with either. The Hotsling and The Ultimate Baby Sling.
Although, with the next DC (whenever that might be) I am definitely going to try the Hotsling again. I think I started too late with it and therefore DS never felt "comfy" in it.
