Sling

I bought a Hotsling but I was never really comfortable with it and ended up giving it away. It turns out slings can be dangerous. Positional asphyxia used to worry me a lot because Max did not have a neck for a long time, and I was always afraid his head was too close to his body when slumped in a seat.

Baby carrier

We picked the ERGO baby carriers, which absolutely rocks.

Bjorn type carriers are hard on the back (the Ergo is borne on the hips, so there is no shoulder strain). Some also believe that a baby should not be suspended by the groin -- it could be bad for her hips.
