Check out your local sling library. You can try before you buy and free advice
Hope and Plum Lark or ring sling. Ergobaby Omni dream or breeze. I have a long and chunky baby and she loves all of these carriers. They're easy to use as well
"Baby wearing 101" group on Facebook is pretty active! I see a lot of people recommending the tula free to grow. I don't personally have one because I use a woven wrap but I know it's a good one if you're looking for a soft structured carrier (ssc)
