My Turn... Looking at newborn baby wearing options...

[rufalina]

Help please!!!

With DS I had an ergo with the infant insert which worked perfectly for a June baby, but I didn't use it round the house and for feeding. I love the ergo for him as a toddler, but NEED a new carrier option...

With DS2 on the way and due in summer, and knowing I will have a toddler in the house, I want to get something else that I can use for large periods in the day, and for feeding, but that will breath with us in summer. I am quite a hot person, and get uncomfortable in the heat...

I do have a second hand chickadee baby solarveil ring sling but think I want something else too for longer periods of use.

I have looked at the ellaroo ring slings and the close carriers but an not sure, and am option to everything, but probably not a wrap, as I am unco. So hit me with your thoughts, the hits and misses...

TIA!!

Yep, gotta say the close carrier is the one!!!

Harmony was a summer babe, January, and not a problem. Can carry her for hours on end, and she LOVES it!

Thanks... Keep it coming girls.

I have a mei tai and a pouch sling that I made myself out of linen. I do not got anywhere without both (so I can pick at the time) and Nate has spent many hours in both at home as well as out.
Nate was born in the heat too (and it gets hot hot hot out here) and I've never had an issue with either.

I got a close carrier for #3 - its a bit too flimsy for Miss M at nearly 10kg, but will be perfect for the newborn.

I've seen Linda and some other girls use theirs and I can't wait to try it out!!

Would you be able to sell a close carrier second hand after 6 months use, as this is my last bub?
