Hi Ladies,
I'm looking into getting a sling or wrap to use w/DS especially for when we fly to CA in dec. I've looked into a bunch, but am wondering if any of you know of somewhere I can try on a few to help me make up my mind? Any suggestions would be great! TIA
Re: slings/wraps
I love my Baby K'tan. It's similar to the Moby but easier to put on. Peapods doesn't carry them but Baby on Grand does. Here's a video comparing the two. I loved the cradle position when Greta was little. It was the only way I could get her to nap around 3- 4 months when we were out. Once she was in the wrap she would just pass out.

I just bought the Ergo but haven't used it yet. Greta's 15 lbs and still fits fine in the Baby K'tan but thought the Ergo would be a good carrier for when she gets older.

I would 2nd the Baby K'tan. We use ours about weekly now in the hip position. Like PP said we want to baby on Grand to get it, I would say going into the store to get sized is a must as I would have bought the wrong size had I got them online.
We have one of these:

I used it when DS1 was a baby and I use it now for DS2 because he loves to be carried and he's heavy!
