Sling/carrier for long baby

[longlucie]

Hi,
Does anyone know of any carriers that are good for tall babies? My lad is 5 months, 20lbs and well above the 99.6th centile for length(i.e. he's a monster)-we had a tomy carrier but as well as being too big for it his legs kick right against my hips when he's in it-ouch. All the other carriers seem to be the same-anyone else had this problem/found a solution???
Thanks

I would go for something that holds him in a proper 'seated' position - his legs won't dangle down as far as with the Tomy and should go around your sides better.

Something like the Boba www.naturalconnection.co.uk/boba-2g-organic-p-256.html It'll last much longer, and you can use for back carries too (useful as he gets heavier).

Other possibilities are the Ergo (buy from a reputable retailer as there are fake Ergos about on ebay etc), Manduca etc.
