After my second c-section my back is not what it used to be. My new baby (well, not so new, he is 5 months now!), is a needy chap and will scream the house down unless he is on my arms. I've been trying to get things done around the house with a mix of letting him cry a bit and using Baby Bjorn, which is killing my back, so I can't cope for more than 10/15min until I need to get him off. I've heard Ergo and Manduca are much easier on the back, so I was wondering if anyone (with bad back) would confirm that as I can't invest nearly ?100 on something that will end up hurting me again!!!
We have an ergo for my hubby and he loves it. Would definitely buy another if we lost this one. However I recommend going to a local sling library as you can try them on and hire them to see what is best for you. I personally thing a wrap is the best way to carry baby and its really not as complicated as it looks. The wrap spreads the weight evenly no pressure anywhere if worn correctly. I love my wrap. But like I said pop to your local sling library and see what works for you x

    • @first mate not aware of any either. Found this relating to 23-24..  https://services.southwark.gov.uk/southwark-creates/funding/cultural-celebrations-fund?chapter=4 
    • Do we still get 50+ outdoor community events per year? All the ones round here seem to have been cancelled, like the Christmas Cracker and the summer equivalent and the Small Business Saturday event etc.  Even on the Southwark Presents page the only events in East Dulwich in the foreseeable future are non-council events organised by other people. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/southwark-presents?event_price=All&localgov_event_locality[0]=239&date_min=&date_max=&search=&page=2
    • @CPR DaveWe are talking about Lambeth Council, not Southwark, but I agree. It will be interesting to see if Lambeth fill part of that space with another hire out to a private events company.  As to the idea that what is gained financially from hiring out Peckham Rye Park is a good trade off, does not account for long-term damage to the park and the loss of access to the community for a month at least, in the best summer months where trees and shrubs are in full bloom and animals are birthing or rearing youngsters. For the Council to claim they are 'green' when they allow this is hypocrisy at its finest. @Northern Star Thanks, so they say. I'd love to see a list of these high quality free events and what they entail. I am not aware of any high quality free events in and around ED. Stand to be corrected though. Crikey, seems like they cannot even let Lordship Lane have Christmas lights this year.   
    • Regarding Gala fees: https://services.southwark.gov.uk/assets/attach/280615/GALA-2024-and-one-stage-shows-stakeholder-consultation-findings-report.pdf‘ ‘’The decision to host large/major-scale commercial (ticketed) events in Southwark was taken in 2017, deemed necessary in order to raise enough revenue to offset the running costs of the Events service, which supports the delivery of 50+ outdoor community events per year, and in order to continue to fund a range of high quality, free events across Southwark through the Cultural Celebrations Fund grants programme.’’
