I was trying to talk DH into letting me get a babyhawk mei tai or something for the newborn stage but he thinks I have enough between my Ergo, a ring sling, and my moby wrap (it's pink so this better be a girl!).
I've read mixed reviews on the heart to heart insert. I know it would be way too hot to wear outdoors in the summer here but I will mostly be using it when shopping, so temperature wise it should be fine with air conditioning.
Has anyone used this insert? Did you like it or was it a waste?
Re: Ergo newborn insert - yay or nay?
I didn't have the infant insert; I was just planning on using my moby -- but you're right -- I couldn't use it in the summer b/c it was too hot.
So instead I bought a RS from sleepingbaby.
But honestly, I wish I just had bought the infant insert b/c the ergo is my hands down favorite.
Well, if I had to be super picky, I would get the beco gemini, but I can't justify it at this stage of the game!
I have one and used it both with and without. I liked it.. it has a cushion in it that baby can rest their bottom on when their super tiny, and then you can remove it and use just the shell to keep them in position when they get a bit bigger, until they outgrow it completely.
Some people use use a blanket, and I did that too. If you can find it for a good deal or used, I'd get it if it were me. You can always sell it when you're done to get back some $.

Hmm, I've heard the blanket thing before. If I don't come across any used ones for sale I might just give that a try at first and order the insert if I think I need it after baby comes. Thanks for the advice ladies!
