I'm looking for one that is suitable from birth, will be comfortable on as I'm only short, and I'm not expecting to have much in the way of stomach muscles for a good few months!! I plan to use it pretty much constantly around the house as ds2 will be only 1 yr old when dd1 arrives.
I've had a look at a couple of websites but I don't know where to start!!
TIA!

I bought a feedom sling (through ebay) which I find great. It doesn;t matter what size you are as you adjust as necessary. If the tail is too long. you can just tuck it into the bottom of the sling. I've used it for dd since see was tiny and it should be good until she is a toddler.

Thanks Melissa - What's it like on your back? My stomach muscles are shot to put it mildly and my back's not far behind! Is it quite easy to use? I have a celeb sling but I never got the hang of it!

A MNer put me on to this site. I ordered the Kozy carrier last night for carrying my 15 mo on my back.

Hi there i've used a moby wrap since my ds5 was abit 3 days old, its really supportive for your back and you can carry in loads of different ways, I can comfortably carry him all day, and just pop him in and out once its tied, I thought it looked really diffecult when I first got it but now it takes 2mins to put on and off and he's so happy when hes in it, I had v.bad spd which affected my pelvis hips and back, and I was still able to carry him! hth
