ok, thanks everybody, i'm going to look into the maya wrap. sounds like a winner, definitely will investigate the mamababy one too because it does seem like the stretchiness would be good when you're having to get a baby into a good...

thanks, that's helpful. even though the crib is bigger, it's probably not worth the extra $$ of the cosleeper, esp. if you have to pull the baby in to bed to nurse anyway. i'll keep your suggestions in mind. Alisa, i love both your...
