help - slings -opinions please

[QueenFee]

I want to get a sling for DD no 3 I had a carrier type before which was heavy and gave me back / neck ache.

I want either a ring sling or one of the wrap sort (Not sure of proper name ) as I also want to use it for breastfeeding.

Which sling did you find best for weight distribution and comfort.

I need it to be comfortable to wear long enough to do the school run.

Also, my DD2 lived in her slings way way more than DD1 for the first 5-6 months. So much easier to get about.

Yeah I'm thinking I have less hands free this time round

Queenfee - would def recommend starting with a stretchy (moby, hugabub etc)and progressing to a woven. They are so much more user friendly.

So glad the code worked sasamax.

Another vote for the Moby here - after a shaky start (didn't tie it tight enough and put my back out) I've fallen in love with it. DS (9 weeks and very heavy) is snuggled up asleep in it right now.

A lady on my postnatal thread uses her Moby all day every day for carrying her DD2 while dealing with what sounds like a very energetic DD1. She loves it too.
