I use a huggababy ring sling. It is so convenient and easy to get baby in and out. I really can't be doing with clipping or wrapping baby every time I want to get her out. The only thing I haven't figured out is how to get baby breastfeeding in there. I did it once in the pub with her bottom half sticking out, lol. If anyone knows how, please let me know.

I don't have any experience of feeding baby in a sling. I have always imagined that the baby would have to be laying across you in a papoose sort of sling??
I have a Kipling baby carrier but Lucinda doesn't like it. I think she might feel a bit claustrophobic in it as it is quite cumbersome. It might be better when she's bigger. I have heard about a shop where you can pay the purchase price as a deposit and take a sling away for a week to test drive it. Then if you're satisfied you keep it and if not you just try another one until you find one you like. So I think I'll have to do that. I really could do with one as she likes to be carried around.

There is a fornightly sling meeting in our area where you can borrow slings. I've never been there myself but a lady from my baby group told me about it. It sounds like a great idea.

Ring Sling Empty slings and breastfeeding.

Post  queen caggy Mon Apr 13, 2009 10:56 am

i have a babasling and i dont unclip it each time i just pop it on over my shoulder then slide baby in.
When he was smaller i did pop him inside then slide myself into it and he would be nice and comfy. I have also fed him in the sling and while walking too. Basically his legs poke out the end but he is laying flat tummy to mummy.
hope this helps a little.

also search (google) sling meets and find your local one.

I'll have to have a good practice when she's in a good mood. That's the problem poor things don't want to be shoved about in a sling so you can't really practice easily.

This is the sling I have incase anyone is interested. http://www.huggababy.co.uk/Default.aspx?tabid=127&language=en-GB I would definately recommend it. It takes a bit of practice, (or maybe that's just me, lol) but once mastered it's great.

I have a Prémaxx ‘Sling’ Baby-Bag ( http://www.johnlewis.com/230306243/Product.aspx ) it's easy to use and I like the fact that there are pockets however it's quite padded and I wonder if it is not going to be too hot for summer time although there is no real summer here in Glasgow. I hardly ever carry my baby though as I was not allowed to carry anything in the first 6 weeks after my section and I also told my fiance that I carried the baby for 9 months and now it was his turn. He loves it at it is in deed a bit masculin. Reuben loves it too even though at times he looks a bit twisted he doesn't seem to be uncomfortable.
