Everyday Hotslings - ON SALE!

Read reviews (8)
Made in USA



Hotslings pouches are an innovative design that combines 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.

Pouches are the easiest carrier to use and fold up to fit into your diaper bag, purse, or backpack.  They are great for newborns up to about 18 months, although some parents use Hotslings to their limit of 30 lbs.

FAQ

How stretchy are your stretch pouches?
Hotslings stretch pouches have just a bit of 'give'. They are like stretch jeans or stretch khakis.  They are made of woven material with a touch of spandex (Lycra is the brand name of spandex) to help the sling conform a bit to the baby and your shoulder.  We use stretch wovens because they are structured, safe and supportive (and you can get lots of cool prints!). Generally, with cotton, the more stretch, the more the fabric tends to stretch out over time.  So if you were to put a heavy baby in something unsupportive and too stretchy, the baby would hang down too low and it would be uncomfortable and not secure.

What's the weight/age limit?
Most babies/toddlers will outgrow the desire to be slung before they outgrow the ability for the sling to handle their weight. Also, once a baby hits 30 lbs, it gets difficult for mamas to handle all the extra weight. Currently (even at 5 months preggo) I can carry my 32 lb 2 year old in a thin, lightweight sling with no problem, but she usually wants out before I get tired of holding her. I think it's much more difficult to keep them hoisted up on your hip without any sort of sling/carrier.

Can my baby fall out?
If your baby is properly positioned, your sling will keep her secure. Make sure she is deep in the pouch. Also, some people feel more comfortable when learning to sling keeping one hand on the baby. Again, common sense is important! Put a hand on your baby when you bend down to pick up a toy your 3 year old left out for you to trip over. Hotslings is not responsible for accidents due to improper use.

What does 'padded' mean?
I don't want a bulky carrier.
Leg padding is minimal and discreet and just makes a
basic pouch style sling slightly bulkier than a non-padded pouch, but still nothing like a heavily padded ring sling. Leg padding was designed for babies in the hip carry - toddlers and little babies alike.  I also use it flipped on the outside with my little baby as a handle to help bounce him into the pouch as well as a soft place for him to flop into and chew on when in the front carry.
