I am trying to get an easy-on carrier (rather than a wrap as I can't be bothered with the 'faff' of learning it all...) for both DH & I to use for DS primarily (he's 24wo & around 16lb) particularly when we go away in 2mths. The problem is I'm 5'3" on a good day, slim, whilst DH is 6' & has brick outhouse tendencies :)
I have been recommended Ergo, Connecta, Manduca & Boba 3G as the type of carrier we're after (alternatives to Babybjorn type things) but am unsure which would work best. And short of ordering one of each in every style/model, I can't find a stockist for every one nearby, so can't try them all 'in the flesh'.
I am aware of a local sling library so will ask if they have any/all of the above, but wondered if anyone had any recommendations for the best one to try?
p.s. we're unlikely to use it every day, all day, more as a second option to a strolled, as we also have a just 3yo DD (who weighs about 14kg).
TIA
