I have a list of things I want a sling to be, can anyone suggest anything?

DS2 is 3, weighs about 32lb.

I love my MT but he is up and down like a flipping yoyo, so am thinking of a change.

I'd like:

Buckles

Small fold/ none bulky materials

Storage pocket or similar

Comfort and lots of it, the Mei Tai is very comfy.

Any ideas? I'm thinking maybe Connecta, but they are tricky to get 2nd hand. Or else maybe a Patapum or similar. Grin

Rose and rebellion do a sling designed for toddlers, if you google them. I have the baby one and it's fantastic!

They are gorgeous! Way out of the price range, but going to look for preloved ones now, thanks x

For Rose and Rebellion you need the preschooler version, not the baby/toddler size, which is too small for a 3 year old.

If budget won't stretch, I'd look on Natural Mamas for sale boards for a toddler/preschooler sized mei tai or full buckle. It will make a huge amount of difference comfort-wise to have something designed for a 3 year old rather than something primarily designed for a much younger child.

Sorry, that was what I meant, rather than the baby 1 (DS is 10 months so to me I just mean the older 1 not baby sized!).
