Snuggy Baby Sling review and {Giveaway!}

When Abby was a newborn, I thought a lot about getting a sling to carry her in while doing dishes, laundry, etc. I used to say to my husband, "Wouldn't a sling be great?" Why did I never get one until now?! Now that Abby is 9 months, it's still a great thing to carry her in.

My Snuggy Baby ring sling is cute, convenient, and so so useful! Also, it is handmade, which you all should know by now, I Love. There is also a shop on Etsy, along with the Snuggy Baby website. The best thing about this sling being handmade is that the seamstress pays a lot of attention to detail. The heavy duty rings are sewn on with double stitching and it is double layered for extra security. The sewing is done extremely well.When I first saw the sling, I was wondering how it could hold my baby in well, but even my wiggly girl couldn't get out of it. The fabric is nice and wide, so it wraps around so as to hug her securely to my body. The shoulder part is also pleated to give extra space for the fabric, yet it lays flat on my shoulder. That also allows it to distribute weight across my back so it doesn't pull and cause discomfort after extended carrying.The only problem I had is that I am short, so the extra fabric hung almost to the ground. It is designed with the extra fabric so that it can be used with all sizes of parents and babies. The tail can be used as shade/cover for the baby, or as a nursing cover. The fabric is even wide enough to use as a blanket on the ground if you decide to take a break.
Snuggy Baby also carries these great Baby Wraps. Like the ring slings, they also come in a variety of patterns. They are also make with baby's safety in mind. The fabric is strong and the wrap protects babies' back or newborns' head and neck. They look even more comfortable than the already comfy ring slings. They, too, are one size fits all.Another great Snuggy Baby item is the Wet Bag. Water proof wet bags are a necessity for moms. Those little ones sure do make a lot of messes; whether it is blow-outs, food, jumping in a puddle, etc! Wet bags provide a place to put those nasty clothes without getting everything else filthy. Best of all, these bags can be thrown in the laundry.A fun item from Snuggy Baby is the Child's Dolls Sling. I bet little girls would absolutely love acting like a mommy and carrying their baby doll in a sling. Such a fun toy! These are also available in many patterns.
