Haven't used it since just because it's easier to keep him in the car seat and pop him in the stroller adapter.</p> <p>Moby Wrap: dislike, too difficult and I never felt secure with how LO was sitting in there.</p> <p>Baby Hawk Mei Tai: I love it but DS hates it. </p> <p>He's not really a "carrying" baby. He wants to see what's going on and doesn't like facing in, but I don't like facing him out in front-carry because I don't think it's good for their posture or my back. I will probably revisit the Mei Tai/Boba once he's big enough to wear on the back. Boba might even be fine for him now in front carry, there's just something about the Mei Tai he doesn't like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766871 Wed, 08 May 2013 01:57:57 +0000 sylvie_b 766871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: oooh, the colorful one is sooo pretty. a new mom friend of mine has one and it looks fabulous on.

Bjorn, k'tan &amp; maya. DH uses the ergo &amp; I looove my maya sling. The k'tan is good but I think the little guy is still too small so it doesn't fit as snug as the maya. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766564 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:30:43 +0000 yerpie110 766564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the Boba and Ergo.

Super easy to get on and off and to put the little one in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766515 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:04:29 +0000 yourekindapretty 766515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>though we havent been able to try it yet, we bought the pognae. my friend used three other carriers before getting the pognae and highly recommended it, so we opted to just start with that one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766514 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:04:23 +0000 shopaholic 766514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>K'tan and Ergo.

In my defence I am trying to start a local "lending library" and so wanted to be familiarized with what is out there. I also have a Comfy Joey Ellevill conversion ring sling that I really like for quick up/down. And a mei tei (I prefer wraps, honestly, but it is also very nice). And a ring sling made by a friend (slingsandmore.com), which I like but is a heavier fabric. Oh, and a water wrap that we used to use for showering and now use sometimes at the pool/lake. Phew! Feel free to grill me if you want to know any specifics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766484 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:37:56 +0000 lavender 766484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just an ergo </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766481 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:35:00 +0000 aprk 766481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Boba wrap is awesome.<br /> We have a Comfy Joey sling but I haven't quite gotten the hang of it - I think I've threaded it wrong </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766475 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:31:53 +0000 keiki_mama 766475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Moby--good for newborn stage, awful in warm weather<br /> Ergo--awesome possum! Wearing the infant insert sucks in warmer weather for baby and mama/dad<br /> Mei Tai (Babyhawk)--Most compact and light weight of all three. I like it but it's cumersome to put on outside because I don't like the straps touching the ground<br /> Baba sling--we just plain did not like it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766468 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:27:27 +0000 Mrs. Pen 766468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Moby - yay!<br /> Bjorn - nay :(<br /> Beco - yay!<br /> Infantino - nay :(<br /> Maya - yay!<br /> Seven sling - nay :(<br /> Baby hawk - yay! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766464 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:23:46 +0000 Mrs. Grizzly Bear 766464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I'm sure with time it would be easy and it seems like it would be comfortable but learning how to do it properly took too much time for me and I never felt like either kid was safe. It was never tight enough in the right places and always shifted besides all the extra fabric. Too much trouble for the price tag in my opinion. But maybe it was just my body type since both MIL and SIL wear it with ease. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766461 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:22:04 +0000 Weagle 766461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Of those three, I definitely prefer the Beco. I like that it has the interior panel, which makes back carries a breeze. It also fit LO and me better when she was small. If I were going to be babywearing all day, I would take my Beco. The Ergo is usually my car carrier. I leave it in there for quick trips inside stores, and in case I've forgotten other carriers. I'm not a huge fan of the Babyhawk, honestly. But, I haven't used it as much as the others. Maybe I would love it if I practiced more. @Anagram: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766457 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:16:02 +0000 Anagram 766457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: ooh.....what's your favorite?

I tried a Beco and ring sling at a friends house.</p> <p>I think the Ktan was great when she was teeny tiny and the Ergo is great now that she is a little bigger. Not a huge fan of the Bjorn but I haven't used it a whole lot because of the fear of hip problems. My husband has used it a few times with her and he thinks its great for the front facing aspect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-baby-carriersslingswraps-have-you-tried#post-766449 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:07:53 +0000 sslm 766449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a moby and an ergo, neither of which I've gotten the hang of yet! </p>
