SLINGS, BABY CARRIERS & CLOTH DIAPERS

There are hundreds of different kinds of carriers out there. It’s a good idea to talk to friends and get an idea of what they liked and disliked about their own carriers. Try several ones and if possible, have more than one. Better yet, bring dad with you when you shop to make sure the sling will fit him too!
