Firstly I am going to ask how old and big is your bub?

I found for us, it KILLED my back once Ash was older, once he was about 8 or 9kg I could NOT wear him in it. The fabric is stretchy, and stretchy fabric isn't the best for older/heavier bubs.

I would go a mei tai. They are great from birth to toddlers. We loved all the MT's we had, favourite was the babyhawk.

I have a close carrier again for bubs, going to be great for this one cos it's from birth and it will be Winter... but once he is older I will sell to get another mei tai
