Does this look a ridiculous baby sling or is MM cack handed?

This just looks really uncomfortable for MM and her son? Does she have it on right? I had one of those babybjorns and it seemed a lot of less strappy and one sided than this contraption?

Get a life.

I thought that when I saw the picture, it doesn't appear to be fitted correctly or tight enough but who knows maybe it's the design 🤷🏻‍♂️

That child will have the best of everything, including a family who adore him.

Going wonky in a sling for 5 minutes when surrounded by press will not impact him at all.

He'll be running full pelt around Canada before you know it.

I just saw the pictures and came on to see if someone had posted a thread about it! Grin

I wonder if they have sling libraries in Canada? She needs to get herself down to one pronto.

slipperywhensparticus · 21/01/2020 09:57

It really doesnt look on right does it

NegroniOnIce · 21/01/2020 09:59

This again? Already been one thread removed this morning.

Here here @Unshriven. I'm so glad my many, many lapses in parenting perfection aren't available in perpetuity for the world to judge.

IckyIsAFuckingStupidWord · 21/01/2020 09:59

It’s not on her right shoulder properly so that’s why it looks wonky.

🚨 Pointless thread alert 🚨

The sling is fine (it’s a good one) but Meghan has either intentionally or accidentally not fastened it correctly. If it was done up properly, then Archie’s head would partly obscure her face and I am assuming she doesn’t want to be photographed in an unflattering way (which admittedly none of us would like, especially if we knew it would be internationally published). As long as she holds him properly and does the carrier up correctly after the pictures are taken, I don’t see the issue. To answer your question though, it does look ridiculous but I don’t think Meghan is cack handed.

This is how everybody looks carrying a baby in a sling I know people will say rubbish but it really is how it looks if you are carrying a 6months+baby but yeah sheis doing it wrong putting her kid in danger Confused

Zeusthemoose · 21/01/2020 10:01

Yep another vote 'for get a life' here

DobbyTheHouseElk · 21/01/2020 10:04

She’ll get a bad back if she carries him like that. I’m more concerned with how she picks up her dog poop in that situation.

Suze1621 · 21/01/2020 10:04

Another 'get a life' from me. How many more MM bashings do we need!

Cohle · 21/01/2020 10:05

Not really "in the spirit" is it.

ShirleyPhallus · 21/01/2020 10:05

Wouldn’t it be great if, whenever you did something remotely incorrect, there were thousands of absolute pricks commenting with glee on newspaper articles and in forums about what an awful parent you were?

I’m sure we’d all love that Hmm

HulksPurplePanties · 21/01/2020 10:06

That's how we wear them in Canada. Makes it easier to throw them to the bears when you're trapped.

Mrsjayy · 21/01/2020 10:06

That is what the burly blokes behind are for DobbythehouseElk Grin

NegroniOnIce · 21/01/2020 10:06

Maybe she bends down, tips the baby arse end up and drops his head in the dog shit? She might as well since she'll never get it right whatever she does.

Roussette · 21/01/2020 10:07

Gosh, how refreshing! Another MM bashing thread on MN. So unusual, haven't seen one of those for all of ummmmm
5 minutes

Mrsjayy · 21/01/2020 10:08

Ha throw the baby and save yourself Meghan has canadian life sussed!

Fanniesyeraunt · 21/01/2020 10:09

Yes, yes she’s cack-handed - Burn the witch! What a terrible mum!

You know what - I look at it and think “What a nice, natural photo of a mum walking with her baby in a sling.”
Wouldn’t have even noticed the “faults” with the sling. Nice way to try and invoke a bit of MM bashing OP!

MaitlandGirl · 21/01/2020 10:10

I didn’t realise how tiny she is, or is Archie a big 8mth old?

My kids were all ridiculously small so I’ve no idea what a normal size 8mth old should look like.

DobbyTheHouseElk · 21/01/2020 10:11

Something on the tv this morning says that they will get paped more now they are in Canada than in the UK. Is this true?

GetOffTheTableMabel · 21/01/2020 10:11

How about we get some paparazzi to follow you around and take photographs of you, your parenting and anything else we fancy and then we can publish them on the internet and all speculate about whether you are doing things right?
PS - Those shoes you are wearing look really off to me. Are you sure you’re wearing them right?

Mrsjayy · 21/01/2020 10:12

She isn't very tall well she has a short body so Archie the giant baby is engulfing her !
