Hello Ladies! So I'm looking to get a new baby carrier. I have a Moby wrap which I struggled with when I had my older son. I also bought a cheap baby carrier which was really hard to get baby in and out of. What carriers do you like, preferably one that won't break the bank?
@MelanieCSU I think this is super individual, and also depends on when you plan to wear baby the most. Can you borrow or try some on? I prefer a stretchy wrap or a ring sling for a little baby (but there is a bit of a learning curve for both). For a bigger baby, I LOVE my Tula. We used it soooo much from about 8 months on and still use it occasionally now at 3.
I have a Lillebaby all seasons which I really like. I too had a moby wrap that I hated. I felt like I could never get it tight enough. This time I plan on buying a ring sling, so if anyone has any good suggestions on those I’m all ears!
I don’t know if any of you like sewing but it might be a fun/easy sewing project to make the ring sling. I’ve been having fun dying fabrics so I might get some linen cut it in half and indigo dye one and Maybe ice dye the other.
(I also have 10000 other ideas so we’ll see this actually happens )
I have a couple mei tai carriers and a couple ergonomic Infantino brand ones I got at Target. I love them all and each was between $35 and $50. They aren't ideal until 3-6 months depending on baby but they are comfy, easy to adjust and front carrying is super easy to do alone.
