Nojo Original Baby Sling Baby Sling/Wrap

Pros: cheap very useful
Cons: don't know of any

I have not personally bought this item yet because I did not know about it with my first child. Since we are going to have another baby I will defenately purchase this product, simply because it will make things alot easier with having a happy 2 year...

Pros: Security, protection of Baby
Cons: Take care that baby doesn't overheat in hotter weather

With my first child, I knew I'd choose the attachment-style of parenting. Because of cost factors, I purchased a lower-cost Snugli carrier. (What a nightmare, pain to use that was!) I ended up never using it and selling it at a garage sale.

...

Pros: Can have my baby close to my body and still have both hands free.
Cons: I wouldn't use in hot weather. The baby (and I) may overheat.

My son was premature and is still small. I bought a Baby Bjorn and he does not meet the length and weight requirements yet. I bought this sling just to get me by until he fit the Baby Bjorn, but after using the sling, I don't know if I'll even use the...

Pros: Versatile carrier takes you from infancy through toddler years
Cons: You must practice!

I cannot say enough good things about my baby sling! I have used it with both of my daughters with great success. I actually have two of them - one for the house, and one in the car.

IT'S VERSATILE!
When my girls they were...

Pros: Very portable, easy to put on, babies LOVE these!
Cons: Can take getting used to

My daughter is a snuggler -- she wants to be held all the time. When she was born, she was only 5lbs 7oz -- way too small for any of the front carriers. She disappeared into the Baby Bjorn and hated it anyway. After three weeks of not being able to...

Pros: Hand free baby care!
Cons: Takes sometime to get used to using the sling.

I do not like to carry even a purse and then I found out I was pregnant and was going to have to carry around a baby and a diaper bag, NO WAY! I began to look at other mother's and asked a lot of opinions about front carriers vs. slings. For me a sling ...

Pros: I like having my baby with me. It allows me to have both hands free.
Cons: If wearing for an extended period of time, shoulder can get tired.

This is my third "NoJo" baby. She went in the sling in the second week of life and goes everywhere with me. My first daughter was a stroller baby. With my second daughter, I couldn't figure out the sling and my husband became the "chief" carrier....

Pros: Easy, baby love closeness, hands free use.
Cons: My back hurt when he hit about 20 lbs.

I had a very popular and pricey front carrier and it was not very comfortable for me and my son didn't seem to like it - it constrained him too much, even early in his life he wanted to be able to move around. Well, I went to a store and tried this ...

Pros: Comfortable for baby, easy to clean, multi-purpose
Cons: Wearing it takes some getting used to, strangers ask lots of questions

My daughter was born expecting to be held every second of the day. She was a tiny little thing (under 6 pounds at birth) and wouldn't tolerate any of the soft carriers...she would disappear into them, except for her skinny little legs, which would...

Pros: Easy to get on and off, can nurse with it on, washable
Cons: Can be hard to initially learn how to "wear" it

I was given one after my second son was born because I already had a 17 month old at home and needed my hands free. I read Dr. Sear's books and was so interested on how closely bonded wearing your baby could make you to your newborn. So I wanted to try...

Pros: Excellent for nursing mothers!
Cons: A little hard to use once baby gets a little bigger (about 7 months).

I have two children. The very first thing I bought when I found out I was pregnant each time was a sling carrier. I found out quickly with my firstborn that this is an absolutely fantastic way to nurse. I could put the baby in the carrier and walk...

Pros: comfortable, durable, easy to use, baby feels so secure
Cons: none!

I put my daughter in this the day she was born and we both fell in love! It's great for carrying, nursing, and sleeping - sometimes all at once! My daughter was one of those "cling-on" babies who needed constant contact, and this sling saved my sanity! I...

Pros: easy to use, most versatile
Cons: none

When my daughter was born someone bought me one of those "other" baby carriers. It was nothing but a hassle. It had too many buttons, buckles, and zippers, and it was very uncomfortable and hard on the back. Not to mention you cant use it for a...

Pros: Lightweight and comfortable
Cons: You'll get hook on it!

This sling is not only something new mothers should place on their registers, it's a necessity for all mothers. If you are a nursing mother, this sling is perfect for nursing in public. It's large enough to cover everything and best of all, you never...

Pros: A great way to hold the baby and keep it close to Mommy
Cons: It takes some practice getting used to it.

I first purchased this sling when my almost-4 year old was a newborn. It was actually recommended by her pediatrician because she was a high-need, clingy baby. When I first put her in it at age 6 weeks, I wondered how I ever lived without this sling!...
