So my little (or not so little lol) 18mo old is 35pounds and currently use the mei tai but i feel like it doesn't give enough support - anything out there you  recommend? by the way - i am expecting and am about 20wks preg. so anything i can wear while and post pregnancy would be GREAT

TIA!

    I've heard that woven wraps are great from NB to toddler.  Don't know if there's an actual weight cut off though.  Maybe someone else can give you specifics.  I don't actually own a woven wrap yet but plan to buy one shortly before our new LO arrives.

    I'm pregnant & wearing my 30 lb toddler in a Kinderpack. Love it. 

    My favorite wrap for the 25+ lbs stage is Geckos Antigua. It's HTF now though, but they pop up on TBW FSOT sometimes. I think some of the other Geckos are very supportive too. Thick Green Wool Fish is really awesome too, but a little much for summer. Natty hemp is nice (I have it in a shorty), and Anthracite Hemp Indio is thin but very supportive. I have AHI in a size 6, I'm not sure I'd like it in single layer carries but it's awesome for double layer.

    I got a storch - though still using the BabyHawk most of the time. The German wovens can hold up to a 1,000+ lbs I'm told (one guy retired his and used it to pull things on his tractor?!). Anyway, I chose the storch because of the tapered ends and because it can go in the washer/dryer. I wish I'd gotten it from the beginning in addition to the BH.

    Heavy toddler worthy wraps to name a few - any of the: Lana, Storch (any of the Leos or any of the Stripes),  Didymos 50/50 Linens (Robert, Rosalinda, Marigold), Didymos Geckos Mauvin, Elleville Jade or a  Elleville Zara (this one probably only for multilayer wraps), Petrol Hemp Indio.

     Currently I am primarily just doing a Ruck tied under the bum with DD who is 33 lbs in our Didymos Robert and it's pretty comfy for quite a way, however all of these are wraps that have been recommended to me by experienced wrappers when I have asked this exact same question on thebabywearer.
