I am having a hell of a time! I need one that is easy to put on by myself and will be easy for breastfeeding!!! Can't find anything in the boards to answer this

    The k'tan is super easy to put on and comes with instructions for how to wear while nursing. Everyone on here was raving about it so I had to get one and it's now my favorite!

    You guys are geniuses. I had the k'tan and moby and had to return them because I can't put them on.... let alone breastfeed wow!

    Someone on here posted a way easier video for me than any other video on youtube I found and thats when I finally got the hang of it. I think it might have been on the thread I made about breastfeeding encouragement. I was so happy I figured it out so I didnt have to return!

    I love the idea of the ktan but I hate that it's not as adjustable as other carriers.. Plus I've already lost 30lbs 4 weeks PP and between EBF, working out, and eating healthier, it just seems like a waste to get a ktan that I'll more than likely only fit into for a couple months before I need a smaller size (this has already happened and I have to return my Large Ktan). Also, I'm on Florida so I have to have a light, breathable carrier and most of the carriers I've came across are SUPER thick and hot.

    So, I've gotten myself a tula ring sling and I love it. Also, I've ordered a couple wraps (like the Moby) only a cotton gauze material ones that are light and breathable from etsy. I have high hopes for those as well. Both of these wraps are adjustable, and breathable, but they have a learning curve in order to use them correctly. Both can easily be used for nursing too. I've found YouTube is my best friend when it comes to baby wearing lol.

    I live in FL and I am an avid Ergo wearer, but I know better than even attempting to try to wear that thing with that huge bulky insert outside from anytime from April-November! I looked into wraps to try and found a company called Happy Baby Wrap, it's 100% bamboo and super soft and breathable. Easy to get on ( and so is the ergo!) and one size so adjustable I guess.


    For a SSC, I'd recommend Ergo or Lillebaby. I am an avid ergo wearer (my DD1 has been worn and will be turning 3 next month :) and its held up great!!) but am considering getting a Lillebaby to try as well.

    Baba sling! It's wonderful for breastfeeding and has two different positions for it. It's also a lot more discrete than other carriers. It's easy to use as well. Hope you find something that works for you!

    I just successfully nursed DS in his Balboa carrier while at my grandmothers. I walked around outside with him in it and we did great!

    Love my happy baby wrap! I live in Canada so no worries about it getting too hot but it's so nice and breathable and thin to wear even under a sweater :)
