I've been lurking/perving over this thread since it started, being slightly jealous of all the beautiful wearing-kit you guys have been getting. Up until yesterday, I'd only used my moby wrap once or twice, because twins, but I finally felt confident enough to try and get both the bubs in it.
I'm slightly annoyed that this won't work in another week or two because they're getting too big really, but I'm uber proud that I managed to get out with them on my own and go shopping in town. I did get a lot of weird looks though whenever someone clocked not two but four feet dangling from me.

You could always check out twingaroo carriers. Or if you have Facebook, there are a few baby wearing sites dedicated to multiples!

Every time I wear him he poops... And I have to choose between waking/upsetting him to change his diaper or walking around with a stink bomb attached to me.

I signed up for my local baby wearing group to try out a ring sling. I hope I like it because I'm really wanting to order a custom dyed linen RS. The ones you ladies have are so beautiful.

So my K'tan doesn't fit. I got a small but should have gotten an XS because I'm short. Can't return or exchange because N decided to have a massive blowout in it. I've washed and dried it to try to shrink it but nope. My friend who just had the baby at 35 weeks shall be getting my ktan.
So. Cannot decide between a rs or a woven. I thought about doing the happy wrap kaeguri mentioned so H could wear it too.

Thoughts?
H wears my ring sling and loves it. He says the stretchy wrap and woven are too complicated lol.
My Boba scares the crap out of me. I don't feel like I can get it tight enough. I love my Ergo 360. Jake feel great in that but it feels s but bulky for getting stuff done around the house. I'm wishing I got a ring sling.

I wore b in my baby hawk oh snap for a hike today. Much cooler than the Moby and more comfy for me though we both still got really sweaty. My ring sling should be here any day and I am excited!
I am unsure why but I never feel like Rose is secure in the ring sling. She always seems to be crooked and I am constantly putting my hand on her back/butt to provide extra support. I wore her in the ktan today and it was much better except that by the time we were done with the walk, she had slipped down 2-3 inches due to the stretchy material. I am now going to be dyeing and making my own wrap so I can wear her and feel like she is more secure.
yogisews I had problems with her slipping in the ktan too. I'm just now getting the hang of it, but one trick I found to keep the fabric more tight is to fold the fabric more than once across your shoulder. Think of those shirts that cut across your collarbone and show off your shoulders. I think I did a terrible job of explaining that...but this video helped me youtu.be/13g-KtS5VVA

I actually used that video to help me get her positioned correctly. I think I might have the wrong size. It will work great for around the house because she was out within a couple minutes of putting her in.
Mentioned this is the MOTN thread, but it goes here too:
Totally bought another Tula last night, ordered custom fabric (chemicals for me and binary code for DH) and contacted a lady to make me a slipcover and suck pads for each set of fabric. So basically, last night I went from one Tula to four. Shhhhhhh, don't tell DH.
Folding laundry would have been more productive but I'm so excited. Also, night before I ordered a K'tan. So much baby wearing mail coming ::squee::
I think I need to buy a k'tan right now. Little boo has decided his sweet butt must never touch a bassinet under any circumstances. Love our Ergo, but it's way too damn hot for around the house. If I want to do anything other than watch all of Netflix for the next two months, I need something else.
