I have one. I think it will be great once she's a little older - I'm not a fan of the cradle position. I have the organic honey colored one. I like the color
I have one in blue. I like it, but I don't think we use it often enough that DD is really used to it so she gets fidgety after about thirty minutes or so (if I'm in the store or something). I've only tried the cradle hold.
I like it because it's the same concept as the Moby but with much, much less fabric. The only caveat is that if your LO is small still--say, less than 3 weeks or so--it's difficult to get them to not sink in the fabric. It only started working well when she was a little heavier. However, I do have a small kid--she's almost three months and only 10 pounds. So maybe that wouldn't be an issue for other babies.
See if you can find a store near you that sells it. A local breastfeeding/maternity store had them in stock so I was able to try them on. They are sized to fit you.
Yes and I love it! I started using it when DS was probably about 2 weeks old and had no problems with it. I used the cradle hold at first and now use a hug hold (baby upright and facing you). We call it his kryptonite because he always falls asleep almost immediately when I use it. It has been especially great for when I have to tend to my toddler or make supper or something and he is a bit fussy. Hope that helps!
