    Do you mean any sort of carrier or a sling style specifically?? My Moby (like a HAB) came with instructions on how to BF while wearing it, but I can't quite co-ordinate it yet! I also have a sling, like a Bubba Moe Sling, but I'm not sure if you'd be able to in that.

    I think my sling is just too deep to BF in, if that makes sense?

    Yeah i had a sling like that too. So was hoping there was one out there that was not so deep or at least easier to BF in. I don't really like the up right ones.

    Hi Antheia,

    I have BF in both my HAB and ergo! The ergo was the easiest! I couldnt BF with Myles in the bubbasling, as he wasnt up near there iykwim?

    Tegan, I just purchased a "slingalong" sling from the Byron Bay Markets. They have a website (just google it) and the lady has been making them for 12yrs and designed them herself. They are great for breastfeeding bubs too. I'm so happy with mine.

    Only $50 too so very reasonable price..... and postage is only $6! But i didn't have to pay postage as I purchased it while there. It was great getting the demo so I could try it on....
    they are nice and padded so comfy for bubs aswell as for our shoulders etc
