Happy Tuesday everyone!! To celebrate International Babywearing Week, today I'm featuring a pouch sling. These are so nice and easy! We used one especially between the time that Turtle decided she no longer wanted to be snuggled in the stretchy wrap (such a big girl even at 3 months old) and the time she was sitting up enough to do a back carry in a soft structured carrier. I put her in a hip carry even before she was fully sitting up. I would put my arm around her and support her. Although not completely hands free, it helped us during a strange few months. Of course the big limitation of this type of carrier is that it distributes the weight across one shoulder so it's not something we use often now that she's 19 months and 20-something lbs. But it's a great carrier to keep in your diaper bag or the trunk for an emergency since it's is so compact.
Have you ever used a pouch or sized sling? What were your thoughts?
