I have a 5wk old DD and considering a Sling.. I need one so I can breastfeed her with my hands free, and also just to carry her around when going shopping.
I am quite petite, and get tired easily, and she likes to be held upright (though I use cradle hold during BF). Does anyone have any suggestions as to which sling would be the best for me?
Hiya. There are people who know loads more than me on here, but I'd think you'd do well with a Close carrier or a wrap-style carrier like a Hug-a-Bub. To be able to breastfeed hands-free you need one that's adjustable so you can put it in exactly the right place. The HAB and the close will also allow you to hold bubs upright very comfortably (I have borrowed a HAB from a lovely BB lady and I LOVE it. Haven't tried the Close, but it is highly recommended by folk on here. Looks a bit simpler to put on and take off than the HAB).
GL with your decision.
