I got my Balboa Baby sling when Mila was 4 weeks old. Mine is in the pattern shown in the image on the left. It looks great and is very comfortable on (with no baby in it) They give you a small booklet with pictures of ways to position your baby in the sling. Mila does not like the position they suggest for newborns, she prefers to be in a laying position with her head close to my chest. When she's in the sling I feel like she is safe & I can be hands free which is nice. The major down side to me is that I feel like you are carrying your baby on your shoulder. After 1/2 an hour of baby wearing my shoulder is very sore. I have also been unable to nurse in the sling which is disappointing. Both a hit & a miss for me.
Since Eva just learned to use a straw properly a few months ago and we are starting to get her away from using a bottle I decided to pick up a double pack of Playtex insulator straw cups. They claim to keep cold drinks cold which I have found they do. They also claim to be spill proof which they are! They aren't too heavy & come in cute patterns. Best part of all is that Eva seems to enjoy using them! A hit for us for sure!
Nuk pacifiers were Eva's favourite and they are now Mila's favourite too. She especially loves the ones with the handles which are great for when I choose to use a pacifier clip!
