I have decided unless they can give me some Octopus DNA injected into me soon to grow a couple of arms as the Two I have been given are not going to stretch to the six I need LOL..this might need to be an option for a bit! Just bit concerned Brennan too little. -------------

I used a Comfy Cruiser front pack which was fabulous. It cost $40 from Baby Factory. A friend of mine had a flasher more expensive front pack which worked well for her #1 who was a very easy baby IMO (compared to Michaela) but her #2 has colic and won't settle and hated their front pack so I've lent her ours and it's worked a treat - she loves it and her mummy loves it to because it means she can use her hands for other things like cooking her toddlers dinner etc. -------------

Issy HATED the front pack with a passion till she got a bit bigger ... she loved a sling though! ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone! From flab to fab in under a year  http://www.femininefitness.co.nz/category/blog - LFs weight blog

I too used the comfy cruiser ($39.99 from The Baby Factory) and it was excellent when Keziah had wind etc!! She wont go in it now mind you, but that's because she thinks she's a big girl LOL -------------

I had a comfy cruiser and I only used it about 4 times with Jake, but Charlotte lived in it, she loved it, and it gave me an extra pair of hands which you need with more than one baby. Go for it! ------------- The Honest Un PC Parent of 2, usually stuck in the naughty corner! :P |

I think the comfy cruiser is good because the baby is right next to your body - rather than other front packs where they're strapped into the pack first with padded fabric between you and bubs, it's means you can kangaroo cuddle skin on skin. I never used a wrap but I've heard lots of people talking about the moby wrap. -------------

I have used a Moby wrap and found it great to carry Maddi in and still have my hands free!
I find it sooo comfortable and she like it too. A wee bit fiddly to get on at first but once its on i can pop her in and out when ever I like. I have used a sling but feel so much safer with the wrap and not like shes about to fall out. Its also really handy because it can be used to carry them in different positions. (I even managed to walk around the zoo bf'ing Maddi , without anyone noticing, while I pushed Keira in her push chair  ) And DH can wear it too!
I do have an ordinairy front pack (baby first comfy cruiser, i think?) but have never ended up using it. -------------
