What bothers you most about the XD-9 you've been carrying: the length, width, or weight?
How do you plan to carry: pocket, belt, shoulder, or a combination of those?
How much firepower do you need?
I don't think you can go wrong with any of the choices on your list. I purchased an XDs-9 3.3 last year with the intent of getting the stainless 4.0 in .45acp at another date (to match my full size guns). However, I'm actually tempted to get an LCPs PRO as a dedicated pocket gun. The XDs fits in my pocket, but something a little smaller wouldn't hurt. Honestly my old P-64 still rides in my pocket most of the time.
Also, my dad has the shield while I have the XDs. If you like the Shield, then get that and save some money. I paid extra for the XDs because I like the triggers and the grip better, but I would have no objections to defending my life with the Shield.
Also, if you like revolvers, check out the Ruger LCR series. I wouldn't mind having one of those myself.
