Pouch for Newborn and Plus-Sized Mama

[kep]

I am trying to find out what brands might work best, and what the sizing might be for those. I normally wear a 18-20 on the top, and am fairly busty. I have been looking at Hotslings and Mom N Me pouches. Our baby is going to be due in December, so things around here will probably be cold and snowy. I was thinking maybe a fleece pouch, but I was concerned about that being too warm inside. Maybe I'll just have to get two... ;) Any suggestions?

I've never heard of anyone regretting a KKAFP--Kangaroo Korner Adjustable Fleece Pouch (unless it was summer time!). www.kangarookorner.com

The adjustability will help it fit right as your body changes in the first few weeks and the pouch is supposed to be very snuggly. As with any season, you may need to dress your baby accordingly--maybe in layers you can take off while using the pouch.

Otherwise, lots of people like the Mom N Me pouches as well.

Hotslings aren't adjustable, so you lose that flexability. If you don't want fleece, they're a good one to try.

If you have any questions about sizing, the best person to ask is the pouch maker--just send em an email, they're all very helpful.
