Which baby sling: Hotsling vs. Mama’s Milk vs. Peanut Shell?
DD is 6 wks. old. We have a Moby Wrap, which we love for walking and housework, but we are looking for something that we can put on/take off quickly w/o disturbing her when we “wear” her down at night. A sling really seems like the way to go. But there are so many options! I’m medium build (6′7″ currently weigh 155 lb. 6 wks. postpartum). FYI: We are also going to buy an Ergo carrier for longer outings.
I’m jealous because I want an Ergo!
I prefer the slings that are adjustable. I have an Ella Roo and I think it is easy to slip on and off. My son loves it.
I don’t have experience with the other three brands but I had to put in my 2 cents.
