I love the baby bjorn. When Lyra was smaller she could face me and fall asleep in an instant, but now she likes to be facing out to see all the action! It's nice because she is able to see things better than she would in a stroller, too, when we go places like the zoo and botanic gardens. I had a basic sling that I used a few times when she was very small, but it hurt my back and I didn't like how it made her neck all scrunched up (though she didn't seem to care). I find the baby bjorn much easier on my back than a sling personally, and it's easy to adjust so Eric and I can both use it (but he could never figure out how to put Lyra in it on his own...). It was hard to put her in by myself at first, but it's easy now, as long as she's not too squirmy.

Thanks for that information! We will try it out and see how it fits and feels! I know I don't like the way most slings fit, even without baby, but I have found one that I want to try out. The girl I was talking to still uses it for her one year old. I like that it's hands free and it was easy to put on and distributed the weight really well (at least with a six pound doll!). We'll see how it goes when I don't have a 41 inch waist!
