Sling carrier

What kind of sling carrier would you recommend for a 3 weeks old up to 3 months before I can use my Manduca?

Manduca can be used already for a 3 week old, unless your baby is premature. You would need to use the infant insert, that triangular flap of fabric inside. You can refer to the user manual. If you find it warm or too troublesome, can consider getting a ring sling to complement it. Ring slings might be a bit tricky to learn initially but once u get the hang of it, it's quick to put baby in and take baby out. Easy to machine wash and dry vs buckle carriers. Folds up small to fit in the diaper bag when not in use. I still use it a lot with my 2 year old toddler.
