ok, The sling cupboard April part 1

[misdee]

no idea if anyone wants to join me

am just getting into sling with dd4.

have a napsackbaby mei tai, which i use for dd3 as well.

ring sling

and peanut shell.

all have different uses, and work well for us.

marypoppins - at 16mo I would say you're down to a mei-tai (possibly a toddler sized one) or a woven wrap - they'd be the only really comfy ones for a bigger baby or toddler

I use SSCs and MTs with an 18-month-old. I really don't get on with wraps!

These are the slings I have decided to sell. sob sob sob

prices include postage
smoke free pet free home.
all well looked after and loved

slings for sale

sorry wrong link, i meant here

Lovely photos foxy but only one sling! Is it a woven one? I am currently using a moby and a hotsling but when DD gets bigger I have heard the stretchy wraps can not be as useful so I would be very interested in a woven wrap.

try again mcdreamy, the second link has 5.

they are all woven wraps. the Millefiore is a Didymos the brands of the others are mentioned.

yes a woven lasts longer for babies and are more supportive for bigger babies and toddlers. they will happily and comfortably hold a 35lb child.

Thanks got the second link now! I have never used a woven wrap before - silly question are they one size fits all? Only I've noticed you've included measurements with them.

if you are a size 12 - 20/22 a 4.6m wrap is the one you need for all carries.

I am a size 8 and a 4.0m wrap is long enough for me to do all wraps.

the shorter one I am selling, 3.2m is good for most people to do a rucksack carry, hip carry and kangaroo carry but these work better when a baby is already sitting up.

ChairmanMiaow - thanks for the recommendation.

Moomin - I think I'm going to go with the consensus, because otherwise I will have to make a decision, which would be bad

Thanks for that - I am a 14 at the moment (post baby) but usually a 12. I really wanted your Storchenwiege Inka but maybe I would be better of with your Ulli?

Changed my mind, can I have you Ulli?

yes you can have Ulli. She is lovely and will fit you fine. If you decide to resell her, let me know. will CAT you my details.

oops, you don't accept CAT. can you give me your email addy?

grimmer dot kim at mac dot com thanks

Ooh, I fancy your Storch Inka... but must be strong as am saving up for a s/h Patapum.
Resist.

puddock - are you looking for baby or toddler? I have a baby one for sale. Hardly used - I hated it! (I think I'm too fat for it!)

Umm, not quite sure, toddler I think. I tried a toddler one at a slingmeet that seemed fine for DS, though he's only 10 months - and that slingmeet friend is thinking of selling hers on, so I may well go for that. I want it to be usable for as long as possible - but I want it to fit now too... and work arms-out, as he generally prefers that. But if I settle on a baby one I will come to you! I saw one for sale on naturalmamas, is that yours?

is anyone selling a size 4 wrap? need one ASAP for a holiday/car. i have too much fabric left on my 6 when doing a kangeroo carry.

the Inka I ahve for sale was bought as a size 4. they usually measure 3.7m but this one measures 4m. (Size 5 is normally 4.2m)

I have a blue Didymos nino that is a size 3 but that may be too short.

(gutted I haven't checked thread in a few days and missed out on Ulli!)

ulli is v. pretty. I have a Didy Elise size 6 for sale tho. will take and put up a photo later today.

i just checked pp and bank and cant buy a bean. well maybe a tin of baked beans lol.l

Ooooo hello!! Just found this thread by accident!!

I have:

Storch Ulli 5.2m
Sybela 4.6m
Bamberoo Deluxe in "Timeless" pattern
Bamberoo ordinary in "Purple Forest) pattern(currently on holiday)

I just sold a Didy to Misdee, and have also had a green/yellow Millie too which i sold a while ago.

Am looking for a shortie or even a RS as i'm wondering if i should never have sold my Freedom RS (although i dont know if they are suitable for toddlers).

I have a blue mille for sale RGPargy. Size 3.
