i'm working on putting together the carriers i woudl like to try....i'm a babywearing virgin so i could use some help...here's what i've gathered from my research so far and here are my needs:

i have a bad lower back so i want to distribute the weight as evenly as possible.

i will have a newborn and an ALMOST two year old

i will not be nursing (the baby has cleft palate) but will be pumping so the babywearing is also part of boosting milk supply for me...

we pretty much go to the grocery store, target, and the mall...and that's about it.

here's what i am thinking as far as what to try/get:
a KKAFP
some kind of Mei Tei (though i dont' know which one)
a maya wrap

is there something i'm missing? shouldnt' have included? i think the KKAFP looks really simple for newborn use, but the mei tei will be good when baby gets bigger. do i need more than that or am i good there? what kind of mei tei to get and where? is there something better for a newborn that i'm not considering?

i wish i could try these out in person!
TIA!!!!
