I have a sling from babyinafishbowl who is a seller on etsy. VERY reasonably priced and she has tons of cute fabrics, and I love mine. She makes them custom for your body so your baby fits perfect in them. I use mine grocery shopping.

I think I'm going to have to go buy a Moby wrap…I have another sling, but he is already outgrowing it, and we need something bigger! I guess that's what you get when you have a seven week old who is almost 12 lbs.

Your little Knox is *adorable*! For your Moby, have you tried to support his head by pulling one side's cloth around a bit? I have a Baby K'tan, which is basically a preformed Moby, and that is what I did. Have you looked at any soft structured carriers that have newborn inserts – Beco, Ergo, Olives and Applesauce?

I actually hated my moby in the beginning too, so I went on YouTube to watch some of the ladies on how to tie it better. For us, it works better if you do not fold the fabric in 1/2 (but wear a tank or something underneath, not a shirt because you will sweat your face off if you layer up). I get mine as tight as I can and re-adjust the piece over my arms to get that snug before I even put him in it, and even though the fabric stretches to let him in, it keeps him very snug against my body. This way he falls asleep in it almost instantly.
