I bought a chickadee sling when I was pregnant (the non ring type) and I used it in the first few weeks for DS. Then I moved to the baby bjorn type of carrier. This is now killing my back as he is about 8 kilos. I want to use the chickadee sling for the hip position. I have followed the instructions but he seems uncomfortable and fidgety. I know he likes to be carried rather than the pram or stroller but my back can't take it!
Does anyone have a chickadee baby sling that they use? Any tips?
Cheers
