Two... an Infantimo Cheapie SSC and a Boba 3G. If I have another LO I'll get a K'tan for newborn days.
@birdofafeather: Finally someone else that owns a Boba 3G/4G!

I own two a boba 4G and a linen ring sling.
I also have a boba wrap on loan until my SIL needs it.

@Ms. RV: we've used our to near death! Ha. That's the only reason I want a standard Tula! But since it does the job, I can't justify it. We used the boba 3G near daily for 2 years with DD1!

Too many

1 ergo (.which I have posted for sale)
A Sakura Bloom ring sling
An Uppywear ring sling
Sooo... 7??

This thread, tsk tsk tsk... making me want to buy another one.
I have a boba wrap - baby LOVES it, but she is now getting a bit too big at 4 months and I need to move on from it.
I have an old ergo performance carrier, which I used with DD1 and she loved it. Baby is not too fond of it though, I'm not sure if she needs more practice in it though.
I'm contemplating selling the ergo and buying either a boba 4g or a tula.... might have to trawl through the babywearing forum to make a decision....

3: 1 standard Tula, 1 solly wrap and a Tula RS.
I'm in need of a woven - then I'd be all set!!

Just an Ergo. I'm going to sell it after our next vacation. We barely baby wear.
cherry / 178 posts
we have an ergo that never gets used any more (waiting for someone to hand it down to), a boba wrap that we will use again for eventual baby 2, and two kinderpacks (an infant and a standard). at one point I had several wovens too, but I was never a quick enough wrapper for them to be a go to for me!

ktan, ergo, tula, boba air, linen ring sling, woven ring sling
6. way too many. the ktan we barely used. the boba air seemed like a good idea for travel but the straps are not that comfortable (maybe i'll try it again for summer). our toddler outgrew carrying before we got much use out of the tula. i got the ring slings for LO2 but turns out he had reflux and the positioning of the ring sling aggravated it. argh.

We've got a Lillebaby Airflow and a water ring sling that I keep in the diaper bag and use both in the water and on land.

@FannyMae: Hahaha, I started it AFTER I bought another one, lol! I love my original Ergo, but I do see what the fuss is all about with the Tula. Mainly I think Tula is so attractive b/c of ALL the pretty options!
apricot / 452 posts
@snowjewelz: I'm so jealous of your Tula WC!! I drool over them, but never score and can't afford the B/S/T prices.
I have 2 standard Tulas (1 exclusive), 1 toddler Tula, a Beco Butterfly 2 (before I knew about Tulas), a Girasol wrap, and a Moby. So... 6?
I need to sell the standard Tulas and the Beco. But it's so hard to let go of the Tulas.
DS is 4, but only 35 pounds, so I can actually still carry him in the standard. It's much more comfortable in the Toddler, but... variety?
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@ballerinabee: I got really lucky.. I had purchased a Lenny Lamb for like ~$200 for my birthday but it wasn't a good fit. Then this mom wanted mine for her Tula WC w/ accessories, even trade too! They are seriously so hard to let go of !

K 'tan for newborn phase
Beco gemini for my main carrier
Original Ergo as my "keep in the car" emergency carrier
I find the "X" back of the beco the most comfortable
pomelo / 5000 posts
@FannyMae: same. Itchy shopping fingers here.
I borrowed a Moby for newborn phase. Bought and since sold a ring sling (never got the hang of it and made DD spit up). Bought a used Baby Hawk mei tai. Still use our Boba 4G.
I want to try out the K'tan for the next baby. I love how easy it looks! I love the idea of wrapping, but think I'm a little too lazy for all the practice it requires, and we have a very furry dog, so avoiding things that hit the floor is better for us.

1 ergo with insert
2 standered Tulas (both are exclusives)
1 toddler Tula
1 Tula ring sling (for DS#3 due in July)
1 Fiddella FlyTai
1 Infantino Sync wrap
I really want the Baby FlyTai and a obnu too.

3 - an Ergo, k'tan that I either just don't like or doesn't fit, and some cheap thing that is just like a weird piece of fabric. I really only ever used the Ergo.
pomegranate / 3658 posts
Oh yeah I forgot about our water wrap. So that's 6 for us.
@snowjewelz: I've never worn a Tula but I'm still like 99% convinced this is true - people are just obsessed with them because they come in a billion prints. Which raises the question, why on earth don't the other carriers come in just as many patterns?? I loved that Lillebaby came out with a handful of new ones last summer but come on. More!
I keep hoping this thread is going to have some pictures on it guys. Please? Ok I'll start, here's our favorite SSC.

@PawPrints: Haha that's true, for me!
Ok here's a pic of my Tula WC!

@ballerinabee: the Tula BST market is soooo slow right now, lots of WCs are selling for retail!
coconut / 8854 posts
Only 2 - Moby wrap, and Ergo Performance.
I keep telling DH I want another carrier though! That's going to be my splurge for the next baby. I think I want a Tula! Although I need to go to a lending library and really try on a few.

@QBbride: Yeah, I think a lot of people (like me) thought with IRS season (and people getting refunds) that BST group's prices would be high. Maybe too many people thought that and listed their tula... so it was an influx of Tula and brought down the price to retail?
I never listed my Tula (trying to sell it locally and I have no real rush to selling it right now. Plus, I'm only trying to sell it for what I paid (a little less than retail) because it's still new.)
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@bluestriped bee: The market has just been slow for so long! I think there are just so many exclusives/releases, etc across brands now that there is just a surplus.
pomegranate / 3658 posts
@snowjewelz: @bluestriped bee: @QBbride: I wonder if it's the season, as well. Like, people do a lot less babywearing in the winter, so maybe the BST will heat up once we get a few months into spring.
pomegranate / 3192 posts
@bluestriped bee: I think @snowjewelz: is right, the market is so saturated! They're coming out with new prints basically every week plus SO many retailers have exclusives. Gone are the days where you could flip your WC for $1000+ (except for super special ones, of course!)

@PawPrints: I'll play! Here's my favorite - WCMT from Girasol Frigga Fuscia.

My baby wearing days are over, but I just had an Ergo.
pomegranate / 3706 posts
I had 4, but only still have 1, and we don't use it anymore. We had a Moby I used a little with DD1, and then opted for a woven. I've since given the Moby to a friend for her baby boy. We also tried the Bjorn with DD1, but that didn't last long and we donated it. For DD2 I got an Ergo but she hated it, so I gave it to a friend for her new baby girl.

I have a SBP ring sling, a Ergo (looking to get rid of it though), a Solly Baby wrap, and I'm about to order a Lilebaby!
grapefruit / 4291 posts
We have an Ergo, a stretchy wrap and a framed Kelty backpack, I'm hoping to add a ring sling to my small stash and I'd love a toddler SSC!
My Ergo has been the best $150 I ever spent on a piece of baby gear!
pomegranate / 3658 posts
@Kemma: Oh yeah we also have a Kelty frame backpack that we got free from a friend. Haven't used it yet but looking forward to it as the weather gets nice. Seven carriers.

@PawPrints: I actually dislike 95% of the Tula prints. The comfort is awesome though.
