Hi,
Our LO very much loves very close contact with us. He pretty much falls asleep every time when he is put on one of our chests and at the same time is not too impressed when he is not held. So I really like the idea of carrying him around with me while getting on with some daily tasks, which currently are a little neglected.
I have seen the thread about the carrier reviews, which I will have a proper read later, but I was wondering if someone could give me a bit more advice please. Once I have a bit better idea of what carrier I am looking at, I will hopefully be attending a local sling meet.
I heard that there are some carriers, in which you can breastfeed the LO. Really? Is this possible? So you just latch them on and they drink?
Also, I read that some carriers can cause back and posture problems for the LO in later life. Is that correct? Which ones do I need to steer clear from?
Any help would be much appreciated.
