battle of the baby carriers
Thursday, May 25, 2006Aisyah hates the taylormade watermesh sling I bought for her(4months ago) and we never used it ever since. She prefers to be carried rather than be in the stroller everytime we go out too. And carrying her do strain my arms sometimes *especially after walking for a few hours* so I thought that I should get a baby carrier. My concern was about suspending Aisyah from her crotch because I had read that it could cause spinal stress.
The hug-a-bub carrier looks good. It's cotton *good for Aisyah since she got eczema* and looks comfortable to wear *aniq sure looks comfy in that!*. The baby bjorn is nice too but after reading what m4m ladies are reviewing about it, I'll give it a miss. The Ergo carrier received favourable reviews from mummies but with all those buckling, I would look like carrying a hiker's haversack! haha.
And while googling for alternative slings, I found Hotslings. Their choice of fabric designs is wow! Hotslings look a lot like the Maya Wrap Pouch. An improved version would be the Premaxx Euro Style Baby Carrier. It comes with handy pockets...good for putting in my handphone and wallet for easier access.
But maybe I should try putting her in the taylormade sling this weekend and see her reactions.
