Would you recommend buying the Balboa Baby Adjustable Sling by Dr. Sears – Geisha Trim?
Ok, we now have 4 ways to tote our toddler on our bodies & this is my current favorite. I had wanted a sling from the start, but couldn’t find one I liked. Other rings slings have this massive “tail” that drove me nuts. The Peanut Shell brand is beautiful, but expensive. Hotslings were too size specific (my husband I would have each needed our own).
