Baby Slings
Another Hands-Free Option for Carrying your Baby
In many cultures, baby slings have long been a popular choice for carrying babies. The availability of such slings on the market continues to increase and provides yet another way of lovingly carrying and cradling your baby close to you.
Why, you ask, would you choose to rely on baby carrier slings instead of the standard rear/front-facing baby carriers or baby backpacks to carry your child?
Slings offer several features and/or benefits that other baby-carrying options do not. These include:
- The general lack of buckles, straps, etc. that potentially directly press on and/or irritate/injure the baby.
- The cradling of a baby's entire body in a very natural fetal position, thereby reducing stress/injuries to certain parts of the body of a baby.
- A construction that allows for the "reversibility" of the sling to be worn in two different fashionable styles.
- An elasticized edge or drawstring on the sling that allows for a more secure fit for babies.
- Availability in various sizes usually based on the measurement from one shoulder to the opposite hip.
- Easily put on over one shoulder and adjusted, which further allows for a sleeping baby to be set down without the risk of awakening him/her.
- Easily-washable materials for most slings.
- Allows for discreetly breastfeeding a baby.
An over-the-shoulder sling or hip sling for carrying a baby provides parents with a way to bond closely with their children. Whether carrying the baby around in the sling out of necessity or for pleasure, a sling allows for a hands-free, heart-warming experience.
