I know there are a lot of babywearers out there so I'm hoping for some good advice on which baby sling would suit me best - there is far too much choice and with funds being very limited I really don't want to buy one and find it doesn't suit
I'm 5'2 and pretty small built but I have fairly large boobs to take into account .
I'm looking for something that won't put much strain on my back. I'm going to need it most for the first 18 months and ideally want one I can breastfeed in. I'm going to need it to be very supporting as I'm going to be carrying the new baby in it while 'dealing with' an unruly 2 year old and her 4 year old sister (who is thankfully slightly better behaved). I'm likely to be using it around town and on the beach while pushing the unruly one in the pushchair . I'm probably going to need to use it when doing the housework too.
I know there are several compnies who hire out slings. Can anyone recommend one? Not sure how useful that would be to me right now as I am 18 weeks pregnant and my only 'tester' would be DD2 - not sure if it would be a good idea to start using one now?
Has anyone successfully made their own and can advise me on a good pattern?
Help!!
