Calling all serial baby carrier owners.

[beckoes]

I have been looking at so many different types of carriers and now im SO confused! so i thought id ask here...

Im looking for a carrier that wont be too hot in QLD in feb, i had a baby bjorn with DD and it was too hot for her and me.

Something that gives good head support so i can carry baby while still doing stuff with DD without baby getting jolted about too much.

Something that i can breastfeed easily in, again, with DD i was able to sit around a let her sleep in the boob all day, but with a 2 1/2 year old i dont think that will be an option this time so want to be able to do that while still doing stuff with DD.

And not give me a bad back!

Easier said than done??? hope someone who has tried every baby carrier under the sun.....Arimeh ....might be able to point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance.

I have used a few (hug a bub, mei tai and ergo) and I loved my Mai tai one, called a kozy carrier. It is cotton and easy to use. It us newborn to toddler and I breastfed dd in it from around 5 months (when she was self attaching and had head support etc). I used it all summer, which was a shocker in Melbourne that year (think black Saturday bushfires with days of 43 degrees).

I am getting a new ergo for this bub (I borrowed the other one) because it is more comfy for back carry.

I like my close carrier because its good for feeding in & carrying but I dont know what it would be like in summer

I'd say the close carrier - even though I'm not an expert
