The "you are all so bad!" thread got me thinking about this poll! How many slings/carriers do you all have, and how much do you use each of them? I have:

Baby Bjorn (out of use)
Maya Wrap (use very little)
A evenflow backpack (my DH uses)
KKAFP
KKACP; and
a kozy carrier

I'm coveting a fussybutt solarveil pouch, an ergo, and any type of beautiful silk sling. If we ever have another baby, that's my registry


:LOL

I voted two. I just bought a Maya Wrap from a friend and it should be here next week ( ). I also own a trekker. I think this might be it, but we are talking about ttc next year so who knows what I will want with the new one :LOL

I really haven't kept count. There are two in my car... One in each of four? diaper bags... One or two hanging from the coat rack... :

I voted for 1 because the title of the thread was "How many sling..." but I have a Baby Bjorn and a Zolo - so 2 carriers!

DH mainly used the Bjorn, and I do occasionally.
The Zolo is our carrier of choice though!

I voted one bc of the thread title, too. I have one sling, which I use several times a week.

I also have a retired Baby Bjorn, and a barely used Baby Trekker.

I have:

Ellaroo
Didymos
Pack-a-Baby
2 KKAFP

On my merry way to order a Hotsling.....

I have an OTSBH - don't use it much anymore; NoJo - used it during winter since it fit over my coat; a KK solarveil - use that the most now. Also had 2 snugglis when she was 0-4/5 months.

We are actually moving tomorrow so I had to collect all my slings together. Lets just say I have more than 10. All around sling addict here and I cant help but keep looking for and buying more.

My sling collection
post #13 of 36
hmm, I have been giving away all the ones I didn't like (sling-eeze, OTSBH type, snuggli carriers...) and many of mine are lent out right now (DS at 19 mos wants to be held in my *arms* only!!). So all that I have in the house are my Walking Rock Farm sling-baby, which I LOVE LOVE LOVE, and a pouch I made which I LOVE even more than the WRF one, but it is ripping so I need to get on the ball and make a new one before this baby arrives...

Others that are lent out right now are:

Hip hammock
baby bjorn
home-made sling, maya type but w/ padded rails

Oh, we have an *old* kelty back pack and a worthless Gerry back pack too.

I think the rest are gone...

I really want:

a Kozy
a KKFP
a WRF summer slingbaby
a wrap sling maybe a moby? or an ellaroo
a hug-a-bub

hum dee dum, yes I'm an addict

I have these:

Baby Bjorn
Nojo (yuck)
Maya Wrap
Maya Pouch

I like the pouch best, but dd doesn't care to be worn. She either prefers the stroller or to be carried, both of which I indulge.

I have 6 or 7 slings, and 2 pouches. I made them myself because I did not like the way the "regular" slings fitted, lol. Junkie here, and lovin' it!

:bf

I have 4 right now:

Maya Wrap
Heart 2 Heart
Mesh water sling
Mei Tai (my most recent acquisition and I love it! )
