I think moby's are one of the best options out there for bad backs. Since it's stretchy, it doesn't dig into you at all. The weight is also very well distributed. I have a ring sling as well, and I like the moby so much better!

If you know someone who can sew, it's super easy to make one and it will cost about $15 in fabric instead of $100+

you can make your own moby for cheaper!  
I borrowed a moby from a friend and liked it better than my ergo, it hurt my back less.

wow, that's way better
! I was at Babies'R'Us the other day and was going to buy one for my SIL. Maybe it was a special line/model or something, but had an unbelievably huge price tag!

I have scoliosis and the Moby worked better then any others I tried, but after a while it would still hurt.

you don't even have to sew! you buy like 5 yards of a knit (stretchy kind) and cut it in half lengthwise, it makes 2 wraps. I will find the video.....

yea i dont have to carry anything, if i walk or stand for a longer time or just push the stroller my back will hurt anyways...

everything at BRU is RIDICULOUS.

Quoting Lil' Nugget.:" everything at BRU is RIDICULOUS."

i agree, the only thing i ever bought there was the tub with the shower head thing for DD when she was an infant...biggest waste ever...
but we didnt have much of an option to shop around because we lived in MO in the middle of nowhere. everything we own was bought online or at walmart

Stretchy wraps suck when they get heavy. My 14month old is 20 pounds and I HATE having her in my stretchy. Sags and gets loose way to quickly (was great when she was little though).

Woven wraps are amazing for when they're a little bigger. I really like Girasol and I just got my first Didymos Indio today.   Only had LO in it for like 15 minutes but I'm love. So floppy and wonderful.
