Having seen the Snugli and it looking useful but a little tricky, the Kari Me looks like a comfortable and versatile alternative. 90% cotton, with no buckles, the Kari Me can go in five different positions (front with baby facing your tummy, front with baby facing out, baby on your back, baby on your side, nursing pose). It can also carry up to 15kg of baby (or toddler; it's rated for a child of up to four years old. Whereupon it expires.). Available in six colours, for £38. [GT]
