Hi guys
I really want to get back into my babywearing. Unfortunately the Bjorn is just not substansial enough for my my big DD - she is 9months but tall. I have heard Ergo is fab. I like the look of woven wraps too though. As i am planning on another baby, I am trying to think which would be best to use for dd now and then again when i have a newborn? Is rhe Ergo suitable for newborn? Can you breastfeed easily whilst baby in Ergo? Or is it better to bf in a woven wrap? All answers greatly appreciated thanks! Ps i am going to a sling library in coupla weeks, but want a rough idea before i go!

I would not get a Moby for a 9 month old... she's pushing the boundaries of it really and will outgrow it very soon. Get a woven wrap if you want a wrap or a structured carrier if you want the ease of use.

Go to the sling library :) Try out all of them and see what you get on with.

Mei tai's or half buckle carriers are comfy too imo

I agree you'd be wasting your money on a Moby for a 9mo.
