sling help please!

toby2 · Jan 16th, 2010, 03:46 AM

I got a cloth sling- cant remember the type when my son was about 4months old and he loved it, and so did i!The only thing is i cant find it anywhere now and i am not sure it was suitable from birth anyhow so i wondered if you could help me with some recomendations for my newbie due any day soon- my son was 9lb4 and this one is likely to be similar in size and i am 6ft tall and a size 18-20 pre pregancy which makes me nervous about buying 'one fits all' slings unless i have a recommendation!
thank you

I can give recommendation for Moby and Atifa. After trying lot`s of diffrent carriers I`m with Atifa most. I use Moby when Atifa is dirty. Both very good. Material slighty diffrent. For my wiggly LO Atifa is best, better support, I feel more secure. He can move a little bit and make himself comfortable (nearly not possible for my LO when using Moby)

Hi hun i am the same size as you and worried just like you but there are loads out there, if you want something quick and uncomplicated then a close baby carrier ( i have one and i'm still using it and love it) here is the link how to put them on

my dh loves it as well.
Also i have a moby and can do a front carry but have to either tie at the back or tie on ends on the front. This is the same as a moby http://www.naturalconnection.co.uk/c...tti-p-191.html

The other option is something like this in a size 7 which is a woven wrap http://www.didymos.de/english/index....etailseite.php
Feel free to pm me if you have any other questions xx
