Recommendations for lightweight sling/carrier you can BF in?

[Jooni]

Expecting DC2 in a few months. DC1 will be a rambunctious 20-month-old when baby arrives and I doubt she'll let me sit still for long to feed.

I'd really appreciate recommendations for a light, easy-to-use baby sling/carrier which I would be able to BF in hands-free(r). Apparently it is possible to do this though I never managed it with our bulky Ergo 360, which is great for long walks but not something I want to be wearing around the house.

Any suggestions please?

Kari-me are the absolute winner for me x congrats re your new bundle!

Thank you What do you like especially about the Kari-me?

I have a stretchy (JPMBB) and a connecta, and have found the connecta easier for feeding baby (2 weeks old), plus much quicker to put on/take off than stretchy sling

Most structured buckled carriers like connecta etc are only ok from 4 months. Stretchy is best for those early days, I would recommend a caboo for easy ups. Why not visit your local sling library, they will advise and can also show how best to feed whilst carrying.

Thank you both. One that is a good suggestion, how possible is it to try out various carriers while heavily pregnant? I'm huge this time round! Or do they just talk you through it?

I like using a ring sling for those early days, and have even managed to get baby latched on and feeding during the walk to school.

Brilliant this is exactly what I was after. Thanks Serial, is it quite easy to feed in one then?

You kind of loosen it up, position baby, and then tighten the sling around you again. I like to keep one arm around baby to keep everything as stable as possible, but with practice it is totally doable.

Following as have large 4wk old and almost 20 month ds.

I have the Karl me, it's just a stretchy wrap, I can't get on with it.
