what sling do you like for your 6+monther?

Now that it's finally nice enough to actually go anywhere, I'd like a sling to carry DD around when we go out. I *hate* carrying her around in the carseat because it is so heavy and my hands aren't free and I like being close to DD. We probably won't get around to buying one until April, so DD will be almost 6 months old.

any recs?? If it helps I'd prefer a front or side carrier and one that is gender neutral. Thanks!

  • I like our Maya wrap and we use the hip carry. I also like the Moby, but the hip carry doesn't feel as secure as the Maya wrap to me.?
  • I have been using my Ergo since he was about 6 months (Hot Sling before that) and love it. ?Its perfect.

    Do you want a sling or a buckle carrier?  There's a chart of things in my babywearing bio.

    I love you! your bio is just what I was looking for because there seems like so many choices. I really like the look of a sling..maybe like the hotsling or peanut shell, but the buckle carriers seem like they offer more back/shoulder support so I'm still unsure. Thank you =)

  • EBM, if you wanna, I wouldn't mind getting out of the house with another mom of a 6monther.

    I know you are still on the Grbaby, but if you wanna email me, you can at nestem AT comcast.net

    And I agree with the Ergo. You can get it locally at Hopscotch :o)

  • That'd be fun! I have NO mom friends..considering all of my friends are still really young. I have to put Josie to bed [finally..it's "only" 11:15pm] so I'll shoot you an e-mail tomorrow when I get a chance!

  • My Moby still works great for me.  I use the hip carry a lot.  If I could buy another one though, I would get an Ergo.  I want one soooooo badly.
