....all this and they look fantastic too!!
Newborn
Simply turn the sling into a pouch and pop your newborn inside. Baby is safely tucked up right next to your body hearing the familiar sound of your heartbeat and feeling the rythym of your movements.
During pregnancy many mothers find baby is asleep during the day but kicks up a storm as soon as she lays down to try and get some well deserved rest. When the baby is born, it's the same! Baby seems to be happiest on the move. Not great for a tired new mum, having to push the pram around the park for hours at a time in order to soothe baby to sleep. Instead using the sling as a pouch means baby gets carried around the house during the normal course of the day. Mum also has hands free to get on with anything else (or nothing at all!)
Very easy to breastfeed newborn in the pouch which is especially useful if feeding the new baby is taking a large part of the day, as it tends to happen at this stage. Reduces aching arms if not having to hold baby to the breast and can be useful just to give your arms a break.
Once baby falls asleep, very easy to slip the sling off by losening the rings and lay baby down without disturbing.
Toddlers
Of course you don’t carry your big grown up toddler everywhere but do you find that every now and again they just won’t go in the buggy and throw a wobbly unless you pick them up?
All children love to be involved in the conversations and action around them, which can be pretty difficult if you're standing or sitting at about knee height. Up in the sling, adults talk to your child directly and they can join in too.
Just when your toddler starts to walk they often don't want to go in the pushchair for a whole trip out or go for a long walk and half way along they want to be carried. The sling is great to pop in your change bag to be used if need be.
