    It sounds to me like you're talking about a pouch. If you google pouch and maybe some other helpful terms like baby or carrier, hopefully that should give you some good results!

    I googled all sorts of things and I was going around in circles and getting frustrated, so thought I'd ask in here.

    A pouch is exactly what I'm after, but which one, how much do I have to spend?

    I am not going to carry DD, she's a bit too heavy now! I mean, for the moment, some hip carry here and there, but I bought a new pram with my bonus money esp for DD until new bub arrives.

    I have a bubba moe sling and it sounds like what you described. Maybe google that. I also think that peanut shell sounds like what you described.

    I've looked at Nurtureslings, Peanut Shell and so many I can't remember. I'm just trying to find something that's really good value, not wanting to spend much. DF doesn't want me to get one at all!

    check out ebay, thats where i got my 2 slings from and they were only $40. They are usually around $100 in shops, i got one adjustable one and one pouch like what you are describing.

    hope that helps

    i forgot to mention that they were both brand new, one was a Jazsling and the other was a padded one (can't remember the name and I have leant it to a friend)

    hope that helps

    Thanks. I've watched a few, got an idea of selling prices. Might wait until right near the end, or even after the birth, I might not need one.

    I've just bought three slings off ebay and the most I spent was $40. I just searched under slings and used and there are heaps there. I got two adjustable ones and one that is for my size only. The adjustable ones are padded as well. Good luck shopping!
