Ring Sling
Posted on Monday, February 23rd, 2009 at 3:27 am
I am looking for a comfortable sling?
I need to find a comfortable sling for my six week old son. I have a ring sling, but it hurts my back and my son seems uncomfortable in there (Maybe I am not using it right). I also have a baby bjorn sling, but I hear it is not good for your baby. What else is our there that is kind on your back?
It is padded
Mei tais are probably easiest on the back, I think. Some soft structured carriers like the Ergo are good, too.
I have a six-month-old and prefer one of those two for long carries, but I also have a padded ring sling, an unpadded ring sling, AND a pouch sling, and I still haul her in slings all the time. My advice would be to persist in trying to get the sling adjusted just so…
…with the caveat that for the first three months we had NO use for slings; my baby just never enjoyed being curled up in one as a newborn. When she was really supporting her head well she started liking just having herself balled up, facing me, just her head out, in any and every sling, though, so don’t give up on it yet.
We have a Bjorn as well, which was a lifesaving cry-stopper at six weeks. It isn’t of any use now, but. I wouldn’t worry about it not being good for baby (I have heard the concerns, but I’m not sure how reliable the sources are) unless I was using it all the time over a prolonged period.
