SlingsUsing a sling is an idea borrowed from other cultures where mothers carry their babies
for much of the day. Several UK companies now manufacture slings adapted for a western
lifestyle. They are usually made from a large swathe of thick fabric with some sort of
fastening device - cloth straps and/or buckles. They are designed to carry the baby in the
position you find most comfortable - front, back or hip. Certain positions are explained
in their instructions, but the idea is to develop your own way of carrying, particularly
once your baby is self-supporting. Read babyworld's product test: front carriers on test Buy slings at the babyworld shop
