Hi everyone! I am Nicole and I'm 24. My husband & I welcomed our first child, a boy, Rylan, on May 2nd, 2006.

I am looking forward to learning more about babywearing, and getting some tips from you wonderful ladies. I currently have a HotSlings pouch; however, Rylan & I are having some issues with it. It seems that, while it's the correct size & everything, I just can't open it wide enough to get him in there, or he wiggles too much. Also, I am just afraid of dropping him while trying to put him in there (as the instructions show a woman doing it one-handed). Any tips?

I'm also looking for a new sling... My baby is 2 months old, what would be my best option?

Thanks!

Welcome, I'm also new to this forum!! I liked my hotsling when my son was smaller he is now 14 months and heavy, but am looking into wraps now.. way more versitile!! I'm sure the other moms will also help you out as to what sling/wrap may be better for you, try looking at Moby Wraps they are soft strechy and great for smaller babies!! Have  a Fabulous day!!
