What is the best type of baby sling carrier? I want a baby carrier door, but I'm overwhelmed with choices! I am a flexible ring sling "under $ 100. My goals are to be able to carry my baby 5 weeks old in a variety of positions, as it grows, his nurse while she is in the scarf, take her to the park with my dog, and look hip while doing it:)
My body is pretty rare, I'm 5'5, 130 lbs (before pregnancy) but now wear a bra G-cup! Therefore I need something not break my breasts and relieve pain, back pain, I had to wear my baby in my arms all day (she likes to keep)!
I removed the pocket styles and brands Peanut Shell, New Native, Baby Bjorn, Snugli and. I plan Thing-a-ma-canvas, Maya Wrap, on the shoulder sling, or Dr. Sears. Has anyone here used a sling Solarveil? Please let me know your opinion.
If you can recommend a store in Columbus, OH where I can try some physically, I will thank you. Thank you!
Too bad you're not interested in Baby Bjorn. I struggle with the old numbers too and it gives the best support! I also Wendy Bellissimo style sling and I think this type of sling seems to aggravate my back pain. I do use it sparingly.
Maybe do a test-Baby Bjorn at the session?
Good luck!
Ring slings have never worked for me. I too have really bad backache. Have you tried an Ergo? These are the big carriers.
