Hayley, I know you have a sling for Chloe, just wondering what you thought of them and Kel do you have one?
 
Are they good?
 
What brand is best?
 
Did you use it much?
 
Are they hard to use?
 
We have a Baby Bjorn for Ella - the one where they clip onto your front.
But I found it so hard to use - especially by myself and wasn't very good for when she was a newborn.

I had the front pack one similare to the baby bjorn one when I had Sophie and found it hard to use and pretty much only used it a couple of times.
I got the bubba moa sling when preg with Gracie and LOVE it. I used it almost at every outing till she was about 9 months. I had to stop using it cause I was preg but I could have used it for alot longer as a side support when carrying her etc.
Both Gracie and Chloe loved being all snuggled up in them. If at home on a really unsettled day I would use it also.
I sometimes worried with gracie it would make her to attatched to me but it didnt and she still self settled at home and would settle in the pram sometimes but I loved having her on me so to speak.
I am guessing I will use the sliong for alot longer this time as I wont have belly in the way.
Oh and mine is soooo easy. Can put her in almost one handed.
And use it alllll the time. Love love love it. Only wish I had it for Soph - oh well.
Oh and didnt cost much - like $50 something.

I noticed your one seems easy to use.
The front one's are so hard. Basically to use it I almost always needed Andrew to help me. Such a waste of money. Grrrr.
 
Where did you get your Bubba Moe?
$50 sounds pretty good!!!

This is the one we got.
 
So expensive and considering we didn't use it much.
Was good for long walks tho.

You can always test mine out when you have a newby to see if you like it!

Is this what yours is?

I dont have one and to be honest I am not the hugest fan of them.
But in saying that, anyone I know who does/did have one say they're great.
But I probly wont invest in one for me personally.

Yes that is it.
I am sure I didnt pay that much I thought $59.95. But I do know two babies galore in Sydney have different prices on most of there things. Hmmmm

One of the girls in my Mothers Group is due in 4 weeks and she is looking at the Peanut Shell Sling.
 
She said she prefers it over others as it has so straps or buckles that might come undone or break.
