    Baby carrier/sling

    Can anyone recommend a baby carrier or sling that you've had a really good experience with? Would like one that is suitable for newborns (and older), easy to get on and off, and that DF will feel comfortable wearing too (i.e. something not too 'girly' lol)

    Not too concerned about price, just want something good! Any suggestions much appreciated!

    A mei tei would be good for you both to use and can be used right through to toddlerhood - I still use mine regularly. An ergo would be good too. I know Suse is a wealth of information about slings and I will try to find one of her posts she's done with heaps of info in it for you.

    eta - here is one of her detailed posts https://www.bellybelly.com.au/forums...35-post13.html

    Thanks so much Trillian! And Suse too. Perhaps I should have searched the topic first, before posting a new thread.

    Thanks again! Think that will be very helpful.

    Suse is definitley the master.
    I made the meitei she talked about in one of her posts and it's fantastic! I have made the same one for my sister.
    My DH is happy to wear it too and it still carries my nearly 4yo.

    I hear the close carrier is excellent too. Wish I'd seen one in real life when I had a little bub.
