I have to admit, I didn’t really like this sling when I first got it. My son was so tiny that I felt he was getting squished. I used it maybe once or twice and then put it away. When my daughter was born, she was a bit bigger and we used it for about a week or two…but again, felt like she was getting squished. As I started to blog about baby infant carriers, I dug out my “retired” slings and gave them a shot again. After writing about the benefits of the pouch slings, I think I “re-learned” how to properly use one.
Now, this sling is probably one of my favorite to carry in my diaper bag. It folds up neatly and is compact. It is super easy to use now that my daughter is 23lbs and can straddle my hip while I put her in. I even tried it on my son who is 26lbs and much taller, it is was great. For this price, it is well worth it… as well, the designed patterns make you the new funky mom on the block

Hotslings pouches are an innovative design that combine fashion with function. Just because you are a mom (or dad) now doesn’t mean you will be stuck with bears, bunnies, blue plaid and pink gingham. Nor will you be stuck with a front pack that only is good for your baby’s first few months while it pulls mercilessly on your upper back. 0-37 lbs.
