Yummy Mummies Monica & Denise have been fans of the baby sling since Santi & Benny were newborn babies! See photos below for some early memories with their all-time favorite baby carrier - the ring sling!
"Ring slings have a longer learning curve than pouches. However, their adjustability means a perfect fit with every wearing.
Some young babies prefer the upright, or tummy-to-tummy hold, which can be difficult to achieve in a pouch. Young babies who cannot hold themselves upright tend to squish down into the pocket of the pouch. With a ring sling, the top rail can be tightened to support a young baby in a vertical position.
Some people feel that ring slings are easier for breastfeeding, because the whole sling can be loosened to lower the baby to the breast. Open-tailed slings also have a built-in breastfeeding cover. Breastfeeding in the sling is "advanced babywearing", and takes patience and practice to learn in any type of sling."
