Ring Sling

Ring Sling

This is a ring sling style baby carrier. It's cotton and supportive and not rough, but I recommend breaking it in and washing it before first use to make it even more comfortable and soft. One end has two thick nylon rings. The other is a long "tail" of fabric. You wrap the fabric around your self with the rings at your shoulder and the tail going around your ribs (under other arm) and back up and over the shoulder to meet with the rings. You thread the tail through the rings, put baby in, and tighten the tail. Then you tuck or braid or knot the tail however you want to get it out of your way.

The rings can hold up to 50 kg, which is like 110 lbs, so your back will give out before the sling does and you will be able to carry your baby for a long time! You can use the sling to have baby lying down, sitting up, or even on your back. The weight is distributed ergonomically, so both you and baby will be comfortable and can use the sling for long periods of time.

You can nurse in the sling and use the tail as a nursing cover if you like. The color selections are very nice. I really like the blue stripes one I ordered. The whole thing is easy to wash and stores small (it folds up into a pocket sewn on). There weren't instructions included with the box, but it was very easy to figure out. I received this item for free in exchange for my honest review. #Mamaway
