Slings Info

 Here a bit info about my slings...

The sling can be used from birth up to 35lbs

 

My Slings are made from single layer fabric (unless stated otherwise)

 

Most of the fabrics that I use are made from 100% cotton.

You will find more information about the content in each listing.


The edges and the shoulder pad/pillow have soft Polyester filling .

It is  stitched in so that it doesn't bunch up or move around .


 A shoulder pad has many functions:

  • It gives you extra comfort on the shoulder .
  • With an infant you can wear the sling upside-down and the shoulder pad acts as a pillow for the infants head.
  • If you carry your infant in the snuggly position ( in front of your chest) the pillow provides extra support to the tiny body , neck and head.


The padded edges  (1,5 inches )prevent the fabric from cutting into Baby skin. (legs , neck , arms) when the fabric is pulled tight  against the baby. Having the fabric pulled tight is necessary for a secure fit when the baby is carried in an upright position or sitting


There is enough fabric to cover up when breastfeeding in privacy.

The sling has a wide middle section .

 

I use quality Nylon rings that went through a whole lot of tests by the Manufacturer(SlingRings)

For example:

 

  • Impact Testing ,
  •  Pull Testing (3000 lbs lifting , 250 lbs pulling )
  •  Bleach,
  • Heat  and Freeze tests


You might think that the sling may looks bulky ,but it is not!

It fits into a freezer bag 10 x 11 inches !!( 26 x27.8cm)


 The sling can be machine washed and dried in the Dryer

 (both NOT on hot please!)

Please e-mail me if you have any questions!

Thank You!
