RE: Sling Recommendations
I would recommend making a pouch sling before investing. I am no sewing expert, but I made mine feeling that I wanted to make sure I'd like it before buying one. I tested it on my cats first but have been using it daily with ds. I also think pouches are easier to learn than ring slings though I have yet to try any ring slings. Right now I have a Mom and Me Creations Hemp Pouch coming and purchased two ring slings from Rev. Jan. Rev. Jan was a good choice for me because her slings at the cheapest are $20--a good deal!
