Hey Gizmo, If you want something low price to use for her now try the Jazsling (http://www.bubhub.com.au/community/forums/www.jazsling.com.au) I have one and they are great it would be even better for her too being so tiny... they retail for like 39.95 in all different colors..

You can BF in it not sure if you are or not and you can have her in a range of positions even on your hip for when she can hold herself up.

I just got my Jazzsling yesterday (off ebay for $29.95) and I love it. I haven't used it yet (bubs is due in 4 weeks) so I can't give you any feedback on what it's like to use but it is exactly what I wanted and I'm really pleased with it. It's a pretty colour too :o

hmm will be watching with anticipation! I have a Hug a bub, but want a cheap easy sling, for quick trips out and about.

I have a new native and ergo.

The New Native is great in winter, but really hot now that summer is coming in. I believe it is VERY similar to the jazsling. And like Ella said, you can use it for when bubs is older too.. on your hip etc :)

Don't know a good one, but I was quite disappointed in my hug-a-bub after all the good reviews I'd seen on it. Never quite got the hang of it :rolleyes:

I have the Hug A bub too, and i love it, my only disappointment is that the material stretches after having it on for a while and is really annoying.

I have a Kari-me sling, which is a UK version of a hugabub and although I've only been using mine for 3 weeks, I have noticed this too :thumbsdown: , its the only downside though, its a fantastic sling otherwise and DD2 loves it!!

I also use a babasling :thumbsup: , when I don't have time to tie up the Hugabub style sling.

I have, and in the order of my fave to least fave are hugabub, ergo and jazsling.

Hab, is great once you get to know how to use it, tie it before you leave home, and i puti t on pretty tight to start with and havent noticed any drooping.

Ergo, my hub loves this the best, i think it will be better once dd is older and doesnt need insert. Easy to use

Jazsling, no good for me, dd loved it but i have narrow shoulders and got smallest size possible and it still just slips down off my shoulder. My mum is broader and she uses it tho.

DD loves all of them.
