Please rec a good plus sized sling for ffing

NerdBride_D&D

I will be watching my niece in February (she's still cooking in her mommy right now), and I need a good sling that I can bottle feed her in. I have a Moby, but I was never able to bottle feed my son when he was in it, so I am thinking about getting a sling. I am also plus sized, so I need a sling that will fit me as well.

And if anyone here has any tips on how to hold a squirmy 16 month old in your arms while carrying a newborn in a sling, I would love to hear them. I keep imagining carrying him while I have her in the sling and him swatting at the sling or something.  

TIA

I am also plus sized....

I have found the Beco the best for a plus sizer as it stands. It has a very long waist belt, very adjustable, etc. 

You can buy an extender for an Ergo, and that is what we prefer. The Beco also comes with the infant insert, and you have to buy the Ergo one. 

 

Good luck!

A ring sling should be great for plus size mommas because they are adjustable.

I think a lot of slings will be awkward to bottle feed in... maybe a custom made pouch could work? It won't be hands-free like breastfeeding in a sling  though, I don't think.

I have a Maya Wrap and we love it. I BF so I can't help with the bottles but size wise its great. I wear about an 18 or 20 and have a large Maya and it fits perfect. GL
