Anyone else carry their baby in the long peices of fabric slings??

[blossom2]

I've just started carrying DD2 in one of those slings made up of a long piece of fabric and you tie it in all different positions.

so far its been really comfortable for me but wonder how comfortable DD2 is as she is very close to me. today i think it was too tight...

any tips/suggestions?? i've got loads of infor about positions ect but looking for some 'real' advice...

which one are you using?

its a german one i think, called the Girasol-tragetuch, but have got instructions for kari me, ellaroo, and strochenwiege

do you mean crossover type slings?
I have one, cant remember the name but the babies loved it. they never seemed to mind being scrunched up a bit.

best tip is you can lay a sleeping baby down and slide out of the sling so easily. Ive even slid back into the sling and picked same sleeping baby up later.

I think dd1 would still like to be carried in it occasionally - shes nearly 9!

try papillon, she uses one (or did until she got all pregnant)
