Baby Slings for Comfort and Calm
Baby carriers and slings offer an array of benefits to mums and babies alike. Studies show that babies who are carried a minimum of two hours per day cry 43% less throughout the day. When used properly, a sling holds the baby’s body in a comfortable upright position that promotes digestion and gives them warmth and comfort. Using a baby sling allows parents to keep their hands free, and provides easy access for those who are breastfeeding.
Are baby slings safe?
One question that many parents have is whether or not a baby sling is safe to use. It can be extremely safe, provided that you use it correctly. Babies have weak neck muscles and can’t support their heads for the first few months, so it’s vital to keep them supported. At the same time, you should ensure that the baby’s nose and mouth are free to allow them to freely breathe. Always check instructions before using a baby carrier or sling.
How to choose baby slings
• There’s a wide selection of carriers and slings on the market. To find the right fit, consider whether or not you’ll be breastfeeding. A hands-free wrap or ring sling is a good option for this situation, and fabric slings can be adjusted as the baby grows while providing plenty of coverage in public. • Protect your back by choosing a baby carrier that distributes weight evenly, with plenty of support. This type of option is ideal for heavier babies. • If you plan to carry your baby this way beyond the newly born phase, you should look for a baby sling or carrier that can grow and adapt along with your little one. Many models are adjustable, distributing weight across the waist and shoulders for long-term use.
