Oh I am so glad to see I'm not talking to myself in here!


Terry Lynn, that chocolate passion Ella Roo is beautiful! A ring sling is the one carrier I don't own. That may change sometime soon!

Not-so-hot sling.. I would avoid anything with a lot of padding and look for something made from natural fibers. If even that's too hot.. What about a mesh sling?

Thanks terry!

I just wasn't thinking when I got this one... Boo and I drip with sweat in it, and it's winter! wait until South GA summer comes around!

=D hopefully I can talk DH into one... he thinks it's a "furniture" thing- meaning you get one of it and that's it... I'm explaining to him that it's a "shoe" thing, meaning you have different ones for different occasions/uses... Men, they just don't get it.

I totally get the "shoe thing"

I just got a silk tail sling from this lady for CHEEP... But her sale page is even cheeper But if you want something really cool, maybe email her and talk to her about making a custome mesh sling. She's soooo affordable

Default Re: Roll Call

Name: Heather
Age: 42

Number of children and ages:

Two earthside (18 and 15 years old) and one in utero (due February '08)

Favorite carrier:

I don't really know, due to the age gap between my children; I used Nojo with dd, OTSB and a homemade padded sling with ds, and also a Sara's Ride when they got to be toddlers. For littlest dc I have a Hotsling, two homemade fleece pouch slings, two homemade cotton gauze wraps, an Ergo, and a Maya Wrap.

Carrier you are currently pining away after:

I've mostly indulged my cravings, but I would like to make more fleece pouches since I intend to EC from the start and don't want the "misses" to be any big deal that will upset my infant; I also think that they will be a sensible way of keeping a newbie warm. I'm sure I will be pining again after the birth if not before. I still have the slings I used with my teens, but the ring slings got so much use that I don't think they would be safe any more, besides which it just wouldn't feel right to use them on somebody else. I may reuse the Sara's Ride, though, since it never felt as personal as the ring slings.
