Sling

I've never used one before, but DC2 will is only just two and will still need a pushchair when DC3 comes along... whole new world for me, there's so many out there!

I've not tried a babasling but I had a Sleepy Wrap for DS which I loved. There was a 22 month gap between my 2 and the sling was a godsend for him, especially since he was quite a clingy baby. I loved the sling as well.

I think you'll need a sling but everyone I know who has had a Babasling hated it. If you are convinced it is for you though, they are often in TKMaxx for about a tenner.

The downside with something like a babasling is that all the weight is on one shoulder and can make you get sore quickly from carrying the baby.

I've just bought a moby on ebay that is similar the the one alma linked to. I always thought they looked too complicated for me, but it is not as hard as it looks to tie.

I'd go for a stretchy wrap, sleepy, moby or Kari Me. I love my Kari me. I go to a sling meet and the stretchy wraps are always the most popular.
