Baby carriers and monitors

[Jay185]

Hi ladies, I'm 37 weeks and have bought everything I need now apart from a carrier and monitor. I've read through many threads on recommendations but still non the wiser on what choice to make 🙈

What have you used and would recommend? Thank you

Try and find a sling library or sling consultant near you. They can help you try on different types of carriers and work out what you want, what suits your body and needs and what works.

I love stretchy wraps for the first 6 months, they're so comfy and you can leave it tied and just take baby in an out when needed. DS lived in the sling for 4 months and wouldn't nap anywhere else so we got a lot of use out of it.

Also had a close caboo which I wasn't such a fun of, and then when DS got too big for the stretchy we had the ergobaby omni 360. Still using that at 18 months.

This time around I'm going to a sling library to get some help with what'll work to carry both at once, and for help with hip and back carrying as I find my body shape hard to get the fit right. DS was born during lockdown so wasn't able to go last time.

Good luck and congratulations!
