I know a lot of you use slings &c to carry babies.

Last time, I bought the cheapest one and it didn't work very well; he swiftly became too heavy for me to carry him in it without my shoulders/back hurting.

What's a good sling/carrier for use for newborns? I think we're too nervous to use a plain wrap. I'm not entirely sure of my knots.

We used both a moby wrap and a hug-a-bub but I definitely preferred the hug-a-bub. It is really stretchy and not asheavy as the moby.

As jane_somebody says, a double knot is fine, and with all the fabric you'll soon notice if it's coming loose long before a baby is gong to fall out!
