Slings

[Chevy_Gurl]

Has anyone used them? I never did with the kids, always used those uncomfortable 'backpack' types. I hated them with a passion so I just asked my mom to get me this http://www.rockinbabysling.com/pages/slings_2.html

#030 (at the bottom middle pic on the page). Im soo excited I used to practice AP when it came to the kids sleeping at night when they were babies but I never tried baby wearing. I can't wait.

I want a sling myself.

I had a cheap snuggly carrier for Alex and hated it but for Cameron my mom bought me a baby Bjorn carrier and that one is so much better and more comfortable. I need to talk Tony into buying me a sling though hehe

I'm planning on getting a sling.

I figured when she wants to be held, it'd be easier to do things around the place or go places than holding her. Plus, I'd rather her close to me like that than in a car seat or whatever.

THis is a site I found, but their kind of expensive so I've been looking still:http://hotslings.com/

We're getting a carrier too....More for Phil to wear () but I might use it once in awhiel too when she gets older.

I have one, I used it all of the time when Lance was first born. I don't use it as often, cause he wiggles too much!! But well worth the $!!!

OOH rach, those are cheaper than others I have seen! There are some nice looking ones too

They are? nice! I have no idea what slings cost, but that just seemed expensive.

yeah, they do look really nice (and stylish)! Look real comfy.

Those slings are cheaper then the one I want. The one I want is 87 bucks. although I am very tempted to break out the sewing machine and make one of my own. that way the only cost Ill have is the fabric and the ring.

The baby carrier I have my mom paid $90 for lol $40 or so for the slings isn't bad.

I love my sling!!!!!!!!!!! I make my own so it only cost me $$ for fabric. I don't understand why they charge so much for them, they take all of 10 mintues to make, well the maya wrap style.

They are super easy to make and the rings are cheap too. I get mine from www.slingrings.com. She ships fast too. I have instructions on how to make them, I can post it if you like.
