Thanks for all your feedback girls. Ideally I want to avoid having to buy 2 separate ones.
I do like the mai tei's but I'm just not a fan of having to tie myself, I don't know why, I know it's easily learned, but I just really prefer something that buckles or clips.
This isn't easy :(
I can see me spending ages agonising over this decision!
Can I nurse my child in the ERGObaby carrier? : Ergobaby Support
Can breastfeed in the ergo or so its says !! I prefer these types of carriers to the slings
I've just read a bunch of reviews on the babbasling, the reviews are very mixed, lots of bad ones about comfort and adjustability.
Now leaning more to ergo.....
I tried an ergo with DS1 but it didn't fit me, none of the buckle carriers I tried would fit me, I'm too small. So I used mei tai's and wraps. I found wraps the best. Some people are put off them because they look complicated to tie, but I didn't find them difficult. I used stretchy wraps when they were tiny, and then woven wraps when they were bigger. I found the woven wraps so supportive.
I got the Balboa Baby, recommended by Dr. Sears...and I loved it. I could never figure out those wraps, and you don't have to fashion this into a sling yourself. Just throw it around your neck. DS just loved it. I do NOT recommend those Baby Bjorns...every time I see I bub sleeping in one of those with their little heads flopped over to one side...
Then i think a Hoppediz Bondolino is somewhere in the middle between a real mei tai and a soft structured carrier with clips. I only know positive reviews of it!
If you really want clips you should look at a Manduca, Ergo Carrier, Patatum or Beco or some other soft structured carrier.Quote:

I really love my Manduca and it is easy to use!
Good luck!
I know all the SSCs are suitable for BFg, but i never found it attractive to try. It was more easy without (have been feeding my kids for 16 and 25 months), but that's my opinion and preference
Lol I always nursed in my carriers , very convenient and easy, part of it has to do with body type and boob size etc and baby. I have friends it wasn't as easy for
