We received the sling and it looked absolutely lovely, we chose orange blossom from a fantastic range of colours, I really loved the fact that they were reversible so that both me and my partner could wear it but also because I don’t know the sex of my next child so it will suit whatever we have. It is really well packaged and sends a really clear message about what the brand is trying to support. So for every sling sold a donation of a sling and education around sling wearing is made to a mother in Haiti or Kenya to help reduce infant mortality.
I have previously tried a baby carrier that my daughter didn’t get on with but have never tried using a sling before so it took me a little while to work it all out but once I had done it a couple of times it was really easy to get my little girl in and out of.
The fabric was really strong and sturdy but didn’t feel harsh and wasn’t uncomfortable for my daughter at all. I was also really surprised about how much fabric there was that meant it wasn’t too tight and uncomfortable even though my daughter is two and is quite tall she was still able to feel secure and comfortable.
The sling also had a fantastic pocket which is so handy although my daughter does think it is for her to put things in and get access to!
Overall this sling has been a great success with my daughter and I. I look forward to being able to use it again with my next baby in a few months time!
