I too had a carrier for my daughter. I had three of them. All gifts. The one I used the most was a wonderful construction with a zipper on the inside to you could breast feed without needing to remove them from the carrier. The most treasured one was a beautiful handmade fabric square by a Hmong friend. It was the scariest because I had to get the long wrappings wrapped just right, but it was beautiful. But I never had a snugli. I heard they were wonderful though.
