Hi Everyone,
I am new to this forum and I am hoping that someone can help me
I have a 7 1/2 month old baby. I currently own 3 different baby carriers. 1) Baby Bjorn (which I bought for my daughter and I'm not overly keen on for my son for a variety of reasons, I do feel like he is secure when he is in it though so that is a def. plus) 2) a padded Jolly Jumper sling (bought this for my daughter before she was born and I didn't know that there were other slings available
I don't feel like I can get it tight enough though - I don't feel like I can wear it with my son because I'm afraid he is going to fall out. Basically it is reserved for outings where I will hip carry him - and I always feel like I have to hold on with one hand) and 3) a homemade unpadded sling - I made this one thinking that it would solve the tightening problems I was having with the JJ - I can't get this one tight enough either! I'm assuming either the material I used was too thick or (a more likely explanation) I am "sling challenged"
I am now in the market for a 4th carrier
I'd like something where I can be "hands free", The ability to back carry would be neat so I might be able to actually get some housework done. The ability to nurse would be nice as well. Comfort for the babe is paramount though (although I'd like to be comfortable too if thats possible
)
Any ideas?
TIA
