Recommend your sling, please!

I have an ergo, but it is so big and bulky that it is not practical for wearing around the house. Not to mention DDs head flops around if i am not careful. Plus after reading your responses about wearing LO in public to prevent strangers from touching I think a sling would be more comfy at church and my shower. So first, do you think a sling is worth it in addition to the ergo and secondly which one do you recommend? I know the Moby seems to be the most popular but what about the K'tan?

  • I don't know much about the K'tan, but I love my Moby. It takes a tiny bit of practice, but once you get it, it's great. It is easier to deal with DD if I am hands free. You can wrap the Moby around yourself at home, drive to wherever you are going and th

  • I don't have an answer, but I'm curious what others say! I have an Ergo and Moby and the Moby is ok at home but I would love something better for hot weather that I could fit in my diaper bag. I wore DD in the ergo while we were out the other day and w

  • I looove my Moby (well, it's a DIY "Moby"), but I just made a ring sling for this summer because it's cooler and I like it too.  The Moby is a little more comfortable though because it distributes weight so well.

  • I have a carrier, moby and a sling...yea for hand me downs.

    Carrier is good for around the house and while we are out. But naps are short.

    I find with the sling she gets hot and nap time is short. And getting her in the right p

  • I really like my K'tan! There's no wrapping and way less fabric than a Moby. DD likes being in it too. The only thing I don't like is that it's sized, so DH can't use it because he needs a bigger size than me. But he probably wouldn't wear her that much a
