Which sling?

[Isa11]

I used a baby bjorn with dd1, but it killed my shoulders. I would like to get one of those slings that you can spread across your shoulders, and use in all kinds of positions for dd2. Not sure though which one to get. Any suggestions? Has any one tried the following: Cuddly wrap, Moby wrap, EllaRoo Wrap, Kari-me, or any others. Which is the most comfortable?

I had the Moby wrap with ys, and got on well with it, even though I never got the hang properly of the woven wraps, but stretchy ones are easier in that respect.
However, I found that as soon as my ds was a bit heavier (o.k. he was born a porker and still is one now, lol) it sort of overstretched to easily, was hard to keep him in the comfortable position, etc...!
My most favourite sling is my Huggababy, which is a padded ringsling, but the Maya wrap, the unpadded kind of ringsling, does also look fabulous, and is a bit more practical as it folds smaller.
great website where you can compare different slings and find all sorts of info:)

I have this one and it's great.
I've always loved the idea of a sling but couldn't find one the girls liked or were comfy in (i've tried a few).
Ds loves this and practically purrs when he's in it. It's gorgously soft denim and leather.
He's a chunky baby too.

There are a few 'sling' thread at the moment:

Have a look at this

My personal favourite is the Ergo carrier and my Kangaroo Korner adjustable fleece pouch both of which you can use in various positons with an older baby/ toddler. I use both these with my 16 month old.

HTH

we have an ergo and we LOVE it, hugely recommended! All the weight is on your hips so your babe feels much lighter. I carry ds in it regularly and he is 26 months and a real chunker...and I have a bad back and a bit of a hangover of spd.
