Customer Review: Saved my arms (and my sanity)!
Summary: 5 Stars
Like many babies, my newborn hates to be put down. This, of course, creates problems when his mother (that would be me) wants to do things like eat... We have an Ergo carrier for out-of-house trips, but it's too bulky to use around the house. I tried the Moby wrap, but found it too difficult to tie and didn't feel confident about putting a baby in it as I didn't really feel like I had it on securely. I very much wanted to get a sling, and a friend recommended this one.
Within ten minutes of getting it, my life had improved. My baby LOVES this sling. He instantly calms down when placed in it, and is right this very moment snoozing in it while I get things done like checking my email and writing this review. The sling has been quite comfortable for me as well - the padded shoulder distributes his weight nicely and I can wear it for extended periods of time just fine. I've found that the outside pockets are just perfect for a pacifier, making it easier to keep track of them when he inevitably spits one out after having fallen asleep.
One thing to be aware of with this sling: it's very, very warm. I live in New England and it's been a very chilly spring, but placing the baby in the sling in anything more than a short sleeved onesie has caused him to get very, very hot to the point where he becomes fairly cranky. This is tricky when using the sling at night as to sleep in his bed, he needs to be wearing something a bit warmer and of course - transferring him from sling to bed is tricky enough without also having to change him. However, during the day it's nice for him to snuggle without a lot of extra bulky layers.
