Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

Because it is convenient, first of all, for me. I can easily move around without thinking about how to drag the stroller onto the bus or subway. With a sling, I am mobile, my hands are free, and besides, it is much easier than carrying it in my arms, the load is evenly distributed and the weight of the child is not so noticeable. My child is there and I respond quickly to his needs. And it is also great to travel with a sling, it almost does not take up space and you can put it on at any time. In general, there are some pluses.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

My daughter likes the sling, she looked at everything around with pleasure, and it was convenient for me to comment on what was happening. Therefore, in our family, the sling was loved by everyone, even dad.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

These situations cannot be called unforeseen, on the contrary, the most common ones – when it is -35 on the street, and you have an appointment with a doctor, then this is the way out: sling + baby sling jacket. Even in such frost, the inside of the sling is warm and cozy.

Advice for baby sling beginners

Listen to yourself and listen to your baby. This is probably the most important thing.

Mom’s profession

Child’s name and age

I am the mother of a wonderful 9 month old baby Yaroslav.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

Because it’s calmer for my baby and more comfortable for me. After giving birth, I did not want to let go of the baby, and even after the operation it was difficult to carry the baby in my arms. The sling helped me in the first months to feed and put the baby, it was a sling with rings! Wonderful, beautiful, easy to use – just what a beginner in babywearing needs! When my son was 3 months old, a sling scarf came to me. I didn’t expect to master it in 3 times! And the baby slept quietly in it, snuggling against my chest.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

The kid is not worried and is not capricious, in contrast to the stroller (the sad experience of six walks-attempts). Thanks to the sling, I was able to get my housework up and running! At first, the child watches with pleasure and curiosity what is happening and, quickly tired, falls asleep in a sling even to the sound of a vacuum cleaner. Now we have already moved to a sling backpack, and our walks have become even more interesting, more comfortable and further from home, and our favorite sling scarf has also become a home hammock. As soon as I began to carry the baby on myself more often, I noticed a leap in development! Many books say that a child’s brain develops faster in motion, and a hanging cradle, carrying babies on itself in various devices, is common in almost all peoples of the world. And emotionally, the baby develops correctly, gradually weaning from the mother.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

Sling helps me out everywhere. It is easier to calm down the baby in it, to give him the opportunity to hide from the world, to sleep under his mother’s wing. Sometimes even our dad takes the baby in a sling to give mom an extra hour of sleep in the morning.

Advice for baby sling beginners

My advice to novice slingomas is not to be afraid, not to give up trying to learn how to use sling. This will protect mom and baby from many mental and physical problems! A sling is an ideal solution for babies’ colic, because the baby is constantly in motion sickness, and the mother does not get tired so much.

Aha na afọ ụmụaka

Arina, 8 years old; Yesenia, 3 years old; Kostya, 4 months old.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

My children all grew up in sling, because it is comfort, mobility and movement for the mother and warmth, communication, breast on demand – for the baby. With the eldest daughter in a sling, we traveled all over the city to museums and exhibitions. From the middle one – they gathered the first-grader sister to school and “took part” in all the circles. The small one simply had no choice :))

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Children take the baby sling for granted, a must-have addition to our walks. The little one is happy to see me put it on.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

Once my eldest daughter and I, when she was about six months old, walked off the train and turned in the forest in the wrong direction. It was then that I quickly felt all the benefits of wearing and feeding in a sling. The baby was sleeping peacefully, and we, having strayed and breathed in fresh air, finally got home, And also a sling is a universal bedding on benches or on the grass during walks)

Mom’s profession

I am a biologist, and even received a PhD, but with the birth of children I immersed myself in the world of motherhood, and for some time a sling consultant and breastfeeding consultant.

Aha na afọ ụmụaka

I have two children. Alisa, 5 years old, and Yaroslav 1,5 years old.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

I wore both children in a sling. The choice in favor of this device was made with my daughter due to the fact that we, like most, lived in a typical high-rise building, from where it was very difficult to get the stroller out for walks.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

It turned out to be easy and convenient to walk with the sling. I have become very mobile. Plus the daughter was a very tame girl and we enjoyed carrying it in our arms without harming me. Alice agreed to ride in a sling for a very long time, up to 2,5 years. She fell asleep for a long time, and the sling really helped out in the nightly motion sickness. She wore her son out of necessity, he turned out to be an extremely independent man, and carrying him came down to a simple “carry to the place.”

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

Once on a trip with her daughter, three and a half years old, I took a shorty scarf (as they call a short sling scarf). I took it out of my own tender love for scarves. To be honest, I didn’t plan to wear it, I thought it would come in handy as a bedspread or a curtain in the car. But the scarf at least twice in the first three days came in handy for its first purpose! After a long transfer at the Tashkent airport, the daughter asked to be picked up, dad was carrying hand luggage. Sling saved. Chinese youth took pictures of us on the sly, so they had to pose. And for the second time, the scarf came in handy in Bangkok: a tired daughter who was in the zoo asked for her back. And I quite successfully carried two children on myself, one is hidden in the stomach (in the photo about 5 months of pregnancy). It is much easier than lifting 13 kg off the floor and carrying it on the handles.

Favorite way to tie / wear

I like to wear it behind my back, in a winding “backpack”, and like everything, perhaps, in the most ordinary cross over a pocket, this is a very universal winding.

Advice for baby sling beginners

And the advice would be this: do not be afraid, if you decide what you need to wear and you want to use a sling for this – everything will work out! Only in appearance they are so complex, but the advantages of using them will override all your fears and worries.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Very good, we have worn it horizontally since 3 months.

Child’s name and age

Zhanna, 1 year 9 months.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

Even when I was not even planning children, my very close friend began to wear her baby in a sling. I was immediately impressed by how great it is, what freedom of movement – especially compared to the poor fellows who are trying to drag a stroller up the stairs without an elevator or pushing it along our, frankly, not the best sidewalks! Therefore, when I was waiting for my girl, I already knew that I would wear her in a sling. This does not mean that we did not use the stroller at all – for the first few months I put the baby in it for a nap outside. We live in a private house, such a “walk” in the yard saved my time a lot. But all trips outside the gate – only in a sling. In addition, with a sling, I have unlimited opportunities to walk with my dogs: even in the field, even in the forest, where not a single stroller would have passed, and even my hands are free!

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Zhanna loves to ride in a sling – she is generally a very “tame” baby. For a long time, I immediately fell asleep, it was worth strapping her. And now, quite charmingly, sometimes it brings a sling with a hint of “well, let’s go.” Can choose from two more, in which we will go.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

The most extreme thing I have had to do with a baby in a sling is probably to remove the battery from the car. It was winter, frost, I was at home with Zhanna, but I had to go urgently, and the car froze. Nothing, I tied the child under the jacket, took the key, removed the battery, charged at home – started up and drove off!

Favorite way to tie / wear

I am a big fan of wearing it behind my back. I believe that it is the back windings that fully reveal the freedom of action that the sling gives.

Advice for baby sling beginners

Advice for beginners: try and not be afraid. Some of my friends, having become mothers, once tried to wind a sling, it didn’t work out very well, the child burst into tears – and everyone decided that they didn’t need it, it was too difficult. But any business has to learn, changing diapers or bathing a baby is also not perfect for everyone at once, but I have not met mothers who would say: no, this is too difficult, we do not bathe the baby. And the comfort and pleasure of carrying your baby in a sling is definitely worth learning!

Child’s name and age

Son – Bogdan Antonov, age in the photo 1 year and 2 months.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

Bogdan did not accept wheelchairs and refused to ride them in 90% of cases. I walked well and walked a lot, but on walks, especially long ones and on trips, I still had to take something, and then an ergonomic backpack came to our aid – our salvation! 2 minus – it’s hot when it’s hot outside, because you touch the baby with your bellies. And the second – plus to your weight you carry the weight of a child, and our hero was heavy from birth. And the rest are solid pluses – the child can see everything, he sits high enough and can look at the world around him from all sides. Moving in the rhythm of your mother is also a plus, you can move quickly and calmly cross roads. It is great for the baby to sleep next to mommy, almost like in the stomach, even the rhythm of steps and rolling – everything is like those 9 months inside mom.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Our baby was always happy when he climbed into the backpack. Of course, until he gets tired, because he wants to run.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

The backpack helped out on trips and travels in the mountainous Altai, Crimea, to Lake Kolyvan. And he saved me on trips to the clinic and on trips in the winter in transport. The slingokurtka can be unbuttoned, and the baby is not hot in transport, you can quickly get dressed and undressed, and in the cold you can wrap your head up.

Favorite way to tie / wear

We have an ergonomic backpack, it is easy and convenient with it!

Advice for baby sling beginners

Advice for moms: if you are active and want to continue your activity or communication with society, a sling or an ergonomic backpack is a salvation and a real opportunity not to be imprisoned in your home, limited by your district, quarter and even city! Our children grow up as active as we are. Health to you and your kids!

With Leva, we mainly dance in a sling, and train slingotants at the Clockwork Kenguryat studio. Now, by the way, we are preparing for the reporting concert, on June 4, the studio is 3 years old.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Levushka likes the baby sling – he is next to her mother, she can smell her mother’s scent and heartbeat, so it’s much calmer and safer.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

Sling was very helpful when my husband went on business trips, and I had to take my eldest son to karate, English, to a kindergarten and a swimming pool, with a stroller it would be unrealistic. And so we are very mobile, when Lyova is in a sling, we go by taxi, in the metro and by buses, wherever we want, we go to visit and to events. A child is not a hindrance to our movements.

Favorite way to tie / wear

I have been carrying my baby in an ergosling since 4 months, the sling is very comfortable, easy to fasten, made of natural fabric.

Advice for baby sling beginners

There is no need to be afraid of a sling, it is worth trying – and your hands will become much freer.

It is also an indispensable thing for traveling, and dad can also feel the whole burden of responsibility if he carries his baby in a sling.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

In a sling since two months. For us, this is just salvation. I can be mobile and communicate with two children at once, it is especially convenient on the playground when you need to pay attention to the eldest son. You don’t have to run around the playground with a stroller to play with your son. The son also grew up in a sling, they could easily move around the city with him, go out into nature.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Anyutka with us is more capricious, and she constantly needs attention, and so she always sniffs side by side. When it becomes uninteresting, we can stay upright to look at the world around us.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

The son spent almost his entire first summer in a sling. They also used it in the second year of life, when I was already pregnant with my daughter, and Sanya refused to go somewhere on his own. Of course, I wore it only in the first months of pregnancy, but this significantly reduced the load – it would be more difficult if I just carried it in my arms.

Advice for baby sling beginners

A very big plus of the sling is that you do not need to pull out a heavy stroller just to go for a walk or go to the store. In addition, constant contact with the child.

Veronica was very fond of the knitted sling, as it was tightly wrapped, and at the same time very soft and comfortable, both for the child and for the mother’s back. A child is like a kangaroo. My daughter learned the basics of Slingotants with me.

Once the baby cried and did not calm down in any proven ways. Then I turned on the music and began to rehearse our dance. And lo and behold! After the second run of the dance, the child was already asleep.

My child is in a sling, in a stroller, on a balance bike, and on foot. Everything from place and event. But more situations where a sling is required. We can say the only possible option in my case. My studio is in the city, and I live 35 km away from him, although it is by the sea, but it is 30 minutes walk to the bus stop. A stroller is not an option in mikrik.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

Amazing! Always quite willingly wrapped in a sling.

The most unforeseen situations in which the sling helped out

Strongly unforeseen situations do not happen, there is always some shorty in the bag. Tired, suddenly fell asleep – tied it up and went. The sling always helped out – to rock into a daytime sleep, to survive diseases / teeth, when he simply does not get off his hands.

Favorite way to tie / wear

I can’t say for sure which I loved more, again, everything depends on the situation, age … Motala quite different windings, loved to study new ones, something was more suitable, something less. And under the very “slingopenia” she generally wore it behind her back in a manduke (ergonomic backpack).

Advice for baby sling beginners

Carry the baby in your arms, in a sling and give your baby your warmth and love, because they grow so quickly. Do not forget about the correct posture – this is important !!! Do not listen to any “well-wishers”, this is your child and you know everything better. And all the doubts that have arisen can be dispelled in a conversation with a slingo consultant, since there are now many of them, and most of them will answer any question that may arise free of charge.

Kedu ihe kpatara nwa m ji nọrọ na èbè, ọ bụghịkwa na stroller?

She wore both children in a sling since infancy. Why? It is more convenient for me to calm down the baby, imperceptibly put it on the breast, put it to bed, move along the street, in the subway, in the store. Both hands are free, you can hold the hand of an older child, hold an umbrella.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

My kids loved being in a sling. I felt that in the sling the child feels protection and calmness.

The sling was a good travel aid. When Miroslav was 6 months old, I went up the mountain with him to admire the waterfall and a bird’s eye view of the Katun.

Favorite way to tie / wear

I have used different types of slings. I will not even say which is my favorite. Everything depended on the age of the child, the weather, the duration of the walks.

Advice for baby sling beginners

Let yourself experiment! You can start with the simplest ring sling. And after realizing how comfortable it is, explore others, such as a sling scarf! On the Internet, there are videos and pictures with many ways to tie it. And go!

I can feel the kid, and he is me. I smell the top of his head, I can’t convey the pleasure! And how easy it is to travel: both in public transport and by plane – both hands are always free. With the sling, stairs and other descents and ascents go unnoticed, and the weight of your favorite kilograms is noticeable much less, thanks to the correct distribution of the baby’s weight and its position in the sling.

Olee otú ọ na-adị nwa ọhụrụ ahụ otú ọ na-adị?

My children started traveling in a sling from birth. They lived in them: they slept, were awake – they felt calm and confident.

Long walks in Altai. Endless descents and ascents.
