    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?

    hmmm excuse my ignorance but is this a tie up wrap style??

    I have a baba sling and ergo.

    once DS was about 4 months old baba sling hurt my neck and couldnt use for long periods. Ergo i love but didnt like with a newborn as never looked comfy with insert, so will be looking for another carrier for same reason baby and 18 month old to run after.

    I loved my Peanut Shell!!!! I had 2! A microfleece one and a cotton one for the warmer months. They come in really funky designs too!

    had pouch and ergo with insert and found we needed to get a meitai wrap too, it was such a great purchase as the other ones just didnt work right for us till bub got bigger. I found it easier to put on the meitai than the pouch!
    there are mei tais made from lightweight material and have clips (like the ergo) rather than tieing.
