Re: wrap sling??
The cheapest you could go for is a moby wrap?

Re: wrap sling??
Hi, (dont mean to be rude, but) if money is a bit tight I wouldn't recomend a moby. I had one when Scarlett was tiny and although it was fantasticly snuggly, i stopped using it at about 4 months I think, I know they say its suitable for toddlers, but as its stretchy, I'm not sure how long it would last, I know some mums love them, but I've heard it mentioned that they can loose their stretch and go a big saggy. Woven wraps do cost quite a lot, but they do last for much much longer and you can sell them on afterwards for almost as much.
Did you especially want a wrap, I love my ring slings, they're so easy to use and are much cheaper, although I know a few mums who dont like them. Have you got a sling meet group anywhere, or a la leche or do you know anyone who might let you try one for a few days, then you can decide which is best for you and might save you money in the long run?

Re: wrap sling??
Yeah I have a stretchy wrap which I love but now little man is bigger it just stretches too much and he sags whilst i'm wearing him which gives me really bad back ache. Would love a woven wrap but can't really afford one at the mo. I also have a mei tai which I made myself, love that too but again get a bad back with a front carry and haven't quite worked out how to get him on my back yet! Have tried a couple of times but he ends up lower than i'd like, will have to keep practising!

Re: wrap sling??
A ring sling is kind of like a baba sling, but it can be adjusted so you can carry a baby in different positions. Scarlett like being upright so I carried her tummy to tummy. Have alook on youtube for some ideas of what each type of sling is like. This is a bit of a long winded one, but this is how I carry Scarlett in a ring sling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOOp09IdlE8
If you're handy with a sewing machine, you could always have a go at making a ring sling for the price of 3 meters of fabric and a few £s for a COUPLE OF PROPER RINGS. http://www.sleepingbaby.net/jan/Baby/
Or I Know someone who's selling a cream wrap, I think its astretchy one for £25 plus P&P.

Re: wrap sling??
okey dokey
Yes absolutly!
I will point you in the right direction for vids etc, im in a rush atm but also if you decided to sell it in the future you will probably get what you paid for it.
Resale of these types of slings are good, this is how I have been able to try different ones
