Thank you for making this video, I found it very useful as I just started to wear a ring sling and it doesn't feel good and my baby girl is not happy. I knew I must've made some mistake an that was the reason my baby wasn't happy but I couldn't figure it out. I must say that I appreciate the way you speak in the video, you are very natural and you seems to speak from the heart with a real desire to help. Thank you!

Thank you. Your video was more than just good advice for problem solving sling wearing, you also include a bit of baby-mamma psychology. I've done a good bit of research in preparation for being a parent, went to A LOT of classes, but have yet to make it to a baby wearing class. Thank you for helping me to return to using my sling.. I had put it down some 8 weeks ago, and now my 2 month old is fast asleep supported on my hip :)

Thanks so much ! Very usefull ! For the fifth point, the two first times I tried my first sling with my 2 years old boy, I was afraid he doesn't like it and I feel so disapointed because he tried to get down and repeat non stop : "Erwin is stuck, Erwin is stuck !!" Then, I take time to explain him I'm needed it for my back, and everything is okay, it's cool, but it doesn't work. But I didn't want to give up, and I found a way to relax him : I've shown him videos and pictures of other moms and babies wich are happy with the sling, then, when I put him in the sling again, I've shown him that we are like them in the mirror, and then, he finally accept it...😅 What a pleasure for us now, cooking, cleaning, doing odd job, walking, singing, and making big hug at the same time ! So, don't give up to quickly ! Ps : I've made all the mistakes you talk about too !

Your video was extremely useful. My problem is definitely trying to create a seat. I was the mom who said “this is god enough”. Figured my small preemie baby was ok and he’s so light it was no biggie. Thanks again I’m going to keep trying to work at it. I had heard about the top down method pulling from the top but because I had already made the seat tight or the sling tight I didn’t think that was the best method of going about trying to dig your hand down now in front of you and your baby. Can you share where you purchased the sling you’re wearing in this video?

At the moment, I hate it. The video is helpful, but it is still difficult to get it right. The ring gets low, the fabric gets bunched up in the neck as you asjust stuff.. Also! The rings are still locked after I lift the baby. I cannot even get the baby out properly.

What type of ring sling do you recommend? I use a boba wrap and a baby bjorn carrier one, depending on what I’m doing, but I would like something to toss in my diaper bag that won’t take up a lot of space. I was looking at the Sakura bloom silk ring slings but they seem a bit pricey... my daughter is almost two and we are expecting our son any day now so I’m looking for something convenient for carrying him around. Thank you so much, I love your channel and all your videos!!!
@Amberwardell6 жыл бұрын
If you're looking for a good bargain on an excellent ring sling, I recommend the Soul Slings ring sling. I carry them at The Sensible Mama, and they range from $28 to around $50, depending on the fabric and weave. They are fantastic slings; in fact, the one I have on in this video is a Soul Sling! I highly recommend.
