Sling recommendation for a plus size mama?

I'm worried if I get one of the one size fits all ones that it will end up being too short with my bigger chest and belly. I don't really want to spend more than $50 and I'm just looking for something for the first few months to keep her close to me. TIA!

  • The Moby wrap is awesome for a plus size with a big chest.  I speak from experience.

  • a ring sling would be good b/c they are adjustable w/ lots of fabric to work with.

  • i agree with the moby... also I purchased a sling from kangarookorner.com.  I remember they had all sorts of sizing options for ordering and I was able to order one I knew would not be a problem with my chest :)

  • I have a Hot Sling and have no issues getting it around my 44F bfing bewbies.
  • Do you want a sling or wrap?  If you want a sling then a ring sling would be more adjustable to your post-partum shape than a pocket sling.  I'd recommend a Maya Ring Sling.  If you are looking for a wrap then the Moby is very popular, however, I was not a fan.  I found that being larger I am hotter in general and the fabric of the Moby did not breathe.  It also just wrapped up my fat which I found unattractive - the ring sling did better to hold DD and also provide a little coverage/distraction from my muffin top.
