snlt4hm`s poll Show results | Hide results


Baby-poll poll My husband and i are trying to pick a baby carrier that is suitable for infants up to one year. We have looked at so many designs and ultimately want one that is comfortable for both he and i to wear as well as baby, and one that accomodates front facing and tummy facing. I like the maclaren but it is expensive! Any suggestions for best value?

LOVE my sleepy wrap, my daughter is 20 lbs and I can`t even feel her on me, plus she goes right to sleep in it and I can wear it a million different ways!

Bjorn was aweful. My friend has the ergo baby that i borrow and it is Amazing. I can`t even feel my 1 year when I am wearing her

I have the baby bjorn with back support. It is the best thing ever!!! I used it all the time with both my boys. I stopped using it with my first when he was just under a year ( and nearly 30lbs) and i still sometimes use it with my younger son (currently 20 mo) b/c he is still small enough to carry that way. I LOVED that carrier. it was the best baby purchase i made outside of the tub seat i got!! :-)

Gee, I gotta look and see what I have. I liked it alot but my baby wanted to face out and see the world. She is nosey even 2 years later.

Ive heard the Ergo is good but I love my sleepy wrap! It does the same job as what your looking for, its inexpensive and doesn`t hurt my back or shoulders with my 10 month old or 2 year old in it.

i had the snugli and hated it! I`ve heard good things with the ergo.

I have the Snugli. I haven`t had a problem with it but I don`t use it too often so my opinion may not be the best. xD

Be sure to get the Baby Bjorn that has the back support...it makes SUCH a difference.

I haven`t tried the Maclaren or the Snugli but I have the Bjorn. It`s okay but I think my torso may be too short for it. I`m only 5`2` and my daughter wound up kicking me in the thighs a lot. It`s also a lot of extra weight on the front and ends up bothering my back after a while. My husband loves it and wore it all of the time but after a while it would bother his back too. He`s a tall guy (6`5`) too. I`m trying the Moby Wrap this time around.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
