Question Ladies.... Ais is about 32lbs, so it's gonna only be 3lbs, and she'll be too heavy for her pouch sling.... actually, I think the wrap sling has the same restrictions....... what's a good toddler sling, or carrier for 35lbs up? Or does such sling exist? Everything I'm finding goes up to 35lbs....... I'm most interested on wearing her on my back.... and I'm wishing there was a 35lbs+ mei tei option!!!!!!!!!!

Any carrier you can use to wear your kid until YOU are comfortable. They just use a standard as a guide line. I have put reese on my back in a wrap and she is 5. I worn her for quit a while w/o any problems at all. I don't think that you need "proof" but i posted pictures of her in both a MT and wrap in the babywearing picture thread. Laughing out loud
