Elly/Nita,
My guess is both your hubby are bony... I still have not found an SSC that is suited to my bony structure... one way or another, the buckles etc. gets to my bones :(
Great that you are spreading the BW joy ;)
Email me with details of where to send them to if you are looking at loaning pouches,wraps or whatever else is lacking ;)
It is something like the 'newborn high carry' shown in the Kozy's instructions:
Hello Sumayya and welcome to the forum. Look around and ask away ;)
Hi Jialing20,
No worries. Glad you've got them and are using them :D
Welcome, Nadia. Hope you have fun browsing and checking us out ;)
Hi Rozy and Rizua,
welcome to MBW forum.
Rozy, we have a library in the MBW (Penang). Do come and join us at our monthly gatherings and check things out ;) In the SSC range, we have the Littlepods, a Scootababy (though better known as a hip carrier) and my Beco (upon request). email us at malaysianbabywearers-at-gmail-dot-com to find out more on the library/gatherings.
Hi Inde,
welcome to the forum :) Do browse through and ask questions ;)
While I'd usually recommend pouch/ring slings for newbies, some prefer others. So, it's really a personal preference. Try out what grabs you the most as you look through them, is what I'd say. That usually works ;)
Hi ninarif,
Glad you are into wrapping 
Flannel is indeed a very comfy kind of fabric for its soft and cushiony feel. However, please be wary that you will need to keep checking on any wear and tear on flannel fabric on a frequent basis as the weave for flannel is usually not very strong... which is the reason why it is so soft, I guess. Generally, the more you wash/wear it, the sooner it will break down.
If you are really keen on wrapping now that you have tried it, I do encourage you to get a proper one... you will feel the difference immediately ;)
Thanks happi :)
Hope more of you will be able to take the survey
Today, We... need your help to fill in this survey:
http://malaysianbabywearers.lefora.com/2009/11/19/need-help-from-you-guys/page1/
FYI, it is to help a postgraduate doing her PhD in UNSW gather some information on her research topic. Please help her out.
I shall be there this time ;)
Sat or Sun is fine by me... let me know what I can do :D We can do something on babywearing safety if that's fine ;)
It does feel like baby's not snugg... is that the smallest setting?
We were actually in a few other Chinese papers... even got a reported attended our gathering for a more proper interview... will try to take that and post up for everyone ;)
Could probably be a bug or something... FYI, Lefora is in the midst of testing a new forum. So, with that, hopefully, all the better ;)
Hi all,
Hope you will help Hazliza in her research. I'm glad MBW forum is chosen so let's do our bit.
Just click and fill in the survey.
Thanks :)
Thanks for putting this up, Aishah :) We have been pretty slack this year :(
Hi All,
Sorry I've been MIA from the forum but wanted to come in to say Congratulations to all winners.
Thank you so much for your participation and support. We hope you have enjoyed celebrating International Babywearing Week 2009 with us.
Hanim and Darfia, don't worry... join the writing contests next time to win carriers for someone you know ;)
Yes, Joanne.... 'something will be better than nothing' and the little one that went into that Beco is more or less the same build as you elder son. Let me know if you want to borrow ;)
Hi LiXa,
Not sure if you have gotten your SSC by now but after seeing countless SSCs and trying them on... my general respond will be "Buy the same brand you've tried on and like so much!".
SSCs come in so many different builts.. some with taller body.. others wider. Some with longer straps... padding etc. etc... while it makes sense to buy a cheaper one 'that'd work anyway'... it does not work out that way. You may end up paying so much after as you keep trying out the cheaper ones and just can't find the feeling that you love.
Don't get me wrong, cheaper ones are not necessarily worse... what I am really trying to say hear is buy the one you've tried and fell in love with!
Hi Tokmik,
welcome. Introduce yourself so we know more about you ;)
Forgot to add... 6 months is definitely not too late. You will soon find that some people even wear their 4-year olds!
