Perfect for Summer: theBabaSling® Lite

   

    As the warmer British weather approaches, more and more of us are heading out of the front door; off on our holidays, for a family day out or even just for a bit of a scenic walk around the local park. Whatever the reason and wherever you're going, it's just lovely that {finally} it's beginning to feel warm enough to get out of the house with baby for a little while! And so in light of this let me introduce this perfect-for-summertime sling for babies!

  This here is theBabaSling® Lite - designed by BabaSlings Ltd specifically for hotter climates and summer months. It's made with airy cotton twill and is super lightweight. It's been perfect lately for keeping both Adam and I cool and comfy while out and about with Ethan. Using it keeps Ethan safe, close {and therefore happy}whilst giving us the freedom to have both of our hands free, which these days had become a bit of a rarity! 

Comfort & Ergonomics
    Now if you're a long term reader of my blog you'll probably be aware that I suffer with back pain and therefore I'm a bit of stickler when it comes to comfort and correct positioning and posture. In regards to theBabaSling® Lite we find that it's easy to adjust and re size between mine and Adams body shape and we love that the safety buckles make it easy to take off without disturbing Ethan if he's sleeping. If you're like me and suffer from back pain you may be a little hesitant to purchase a baby swing.. However I found that the thick strap on the cushion offered both comfort and extra support for my back and the fact that I could carry Ethan around in the sling meant he wasn't constantly slipping down on me like he does when I carry him in my arms and hands, so for me personally it works for me and my back and does not aggravate my pain. 
   In regards to baby, BabaSlings Ltd say: "Many healthcare practitioners, including osteopaths and chiropractors, consider the hammock style of theBabaSling® to be ideal for healthy spinal development in infancy. The ergonomic shape of the baby sling is specifically designed to support your baby's weight evenly without putting any unwanted pressure on a newborns developing hips and spine."
