[quote=Anonymous]A carrier (or two!). My life got so much easier once I started putting the baby in the soft carrier and then just going about my life. You only have a few months at the beginning when they will sleep all the time if you can find a way for them to do it. Some people wind up with babies who will sleep easily in bassinets or infant chairs, but mine did best in the carrier. It also wound up being one of my fondest memories of early motherhood -- all those hours of close contact, having a sweet baby strapped to my chest as I went for walks or met up with other moms.

But rather than registering for them, I would ask friends if they'd let you borrow (or have) one of their old ones, and try out a few. We got several K'tans from our friends that we used for a while, and then I had tried a sling from a different friend and even though I was unsure about the sling at first, my baby LOVED it and that wound up being what I used for months and months. Eventually I had to switch to Boba 4G (bought on eBay) because the baby was heavy enough that I needed more support and a back option, but it took some time for me to figure out what I needed and would never have known to register for exactly what wound up working.[/quote]
