I need recommendations for the best carriers or slings from newborn I like the look of the wrap slings but want to know how secure/safe they are as obviously you tie them yourself I wouldn't want baby falling out while I'm out with them
Thankyou 😊

Is there a sling library in your area? The trouble with slings is what one person thinks is great, another person doesn't get on with so the responses on here are irrelevant to a degree.
I asked the same question when pregnant with my second baby and my friend who is an experienced mum of 3 recommended a Manduca. I spent £80ish buying one only to find I just don't get on with it! I much prefer the one I found at my local sling library (an Izmi) and have booked myself in to get it back. Still not sure why I returned it in the first place!

don't get baby bjorn - the baby's legs dangle too much and it can be bad for them.
I found Close Caboo to be great for a newborn and then Ergo for a baby > 6 weeks.
