Plus Size Mom Needs Baby Bjorn type carrier

Just wondering if anyone knows of a baby carrier that is appropriate for plus size moms. We are in need of one of these but not for a few months. Figured I would ask the question here and commence researching.

Thanks much!

got a perfect one!

wrap'n wear does custom sizes. All you need to do is contact then with your size if you need larger then what they have on the website. It works sooo great for me. I really do love it. They also include a DVD with it that is so well done. Anyway check them out. I think that they have their own website and they are sold on several other websites. but i would contact them directly. I think the site is Custom baby carriers, baby wraps, baby sling, baby carriers, babybackpack carriers, baby products. I hope this helps!

Try a regular Bjorn

Hi !

I am a big girl myself, about to adopt a newborn. I tried on my friend's Bjorn (she is a size six or less) and when I loosened the straps all the way, it fit just fine. I am a size 24 - not sure how plus you are but if you're a 24 or less, I would give a regular one a try. You'll probably be pleasantly surprised like I was.

I tried several and hated all of them. They were hot, constricting, and overall miserable to wear, IMO. DD hated them as well.

(I was a size 24 then, if it matters.)
