any moms own a Mama Kangaroo wrap?
I'm looking at them online and they seem interesting. I just wanted to get an opinion on them. They seem easy to use compared to the hot slings I received from my cousin. P looks really uncomfortable right now in the hot slings. I don't think I will use it until P is older so i'm looking for something I can use right now when I go for walks instead of using the stroller.
TIA
Re: any moms own a Mama Kangaroo wrap?
I don't have one - but I know there are a few ladies on this board who have made their own - Rachel for one. All you need is 5 yards of a stretchy jersery knit or waffle knit fabric. The Kangarou website has an instruction booklet to show you the various ways of wearing it.

That's what we plan to do.
Ditto for Evan. He'll fall asleep within 5 min of being put in it. Even on cranky days. I got ours from Etsy.

I got ours from our local Women's Wellness Centre
I have 2 Moby's (one from Sarah, Rach and Nat) and one from my friend Jill. Joe has a Baby Bjorn and I am about to order a Baby Hawk.
I love the Moby and B is slowly getting used to it (he moves to the side and sticks his head out by my armpit). Right now I use them for when at home or out with Joe. If I am out alone and need something quick I borrow Joe's carrier. When my Baby Hawk arrives I will use it.
I found this about making one:
