    XL babycarriers??

    DH and i are on the larger side so we(mainly me) were wondering if slings/carriers come in different sizes and would they even be comfortable for us to wear??
    id rather ask on here first rather than try a baby shop so any advice/ideas would be great thanks

    I know you can get MeiTai's with extra long straps that larger folk can use, but I'm not exactly small myself and the regular straps (180cms long) suit me just fine with heaps left over. I don't know how adjustable/long the straps are on other carriers though sorry.

    Do you sew? You can make them to your own measurements.
    PM me if you want to know the patterns.
