Loading... Please wait...Babywearing? What's that?
If you're interested in finding out more about the benefits of carrying your baby in a sling or carrier (aka wearing your baby), we have resources for you.
First, what's the difference between a sling, a frontpack, a wrap...you get the idea. There are several kinds of carriers, and, though trying a couple of different kinds is really the best way to decide, we think you'll find links to informational videos helpful and interesting. For instance, if you've looked at the Moby Wrap, Sleepy Wrap, or Boba 2G, products, look again. But this time scroll down to the bottom of the product page.
All of these products have videos linked to them. For most of these products, the videos deal specifically with the product/manufacturer whose product you're checking out. But there are several "regular people" who have taken the time to make some comparisons.
If you've checked out the videos but still want more information, or you want more information about babywearing in general, check out the links below. These are links that compare slings vs. carriers and compare different brands of slings and carriers. A note--if you click on the link, it will navigate you away from this page. So we suggest you either right-click and "open this link in a new window" or copy and paste the link into a new window on your own.
