I had a brain fart cause I was looking at a sling with a 30 lb weight limit, LO is actually only 24 lbs right now at 9.5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-for-the-water#post-2465969 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:26:04 +0000 winniebee 2465969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bjorn used to make one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-for-the-water#post-2465965 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:25:02 +0000 HabesBabe 2465965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you're in the water, LO will be buoyant, so the 30 lbs won't be as heavy? I've only seen waterproof slings made of gym shorts material. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-for-the-water#post-2465960 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:23:39 +0000 snowjewelz 2465960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Connecta! They make this solar weave Connecta that's basically swim trunk material and can go in the water, super light weight, blocks UV, and come in toddler size. Tons of people have it in my local babywearing group, I'm really tempted to get one for ourselves this summer too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-carrier-for-the-water#post-2465935 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:15:33 +0000 macintosh 2465935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm looking at signing up for our community pool. They have parent/tot classes as well as a really good season pass rate. I'd love to be able to take DH and get him in the water, but he needs someone by his side for safety.</p> <p>I was thinking maybe I could get a SSC for the water, but I can't seem to find one that looks appropriate. LO is already 30 lbs and wearing him in a sling does not feel comfortable. Any suggestions? </p>
