Uy mama, I totally get it, CS recovery is no joke, so kailangan talaga ng carrier na hindi masyadong mabigat sa tummy! Personally, I swear by soft structured carriers like the Ergobaby Omni 360 or kahit yung Lillebaby (madami sa Lazada/Shopee), around 3-4k lang, and they distribute the weight better so hindi nakakasama sa incision area compared sa slings. One of my mum friends actually started with a wrap carrier around 1.5k (Solumbra or generic brands) dahil super adjustable at lightweight, though medyo steep ang learning curve pero totally doable! Pero honest tip, ask your OB kung kailan ka na pwedeng mag-carry kasi bawat recovery ay iba, and once cleared, choose something na may good lumbar support para hindi ka mabigat sa back. Sending you all the comfort, mama!
