sling review: chunei

When I started baby wearing I looked at everything, the benefits, the disadvantages, colours, padding etc. I found a great website called ihosausa.com and it was selling some lovely looking baby carriers which seemed old and timeless in design but new in style. Its a jacket style and spreads the weight comfortably through the whole carrier and not just over the shoulders. It is designed for the child to sit in a deep pocket seat and is supported with a strap. It can fit small baby, very snuggled and would probably need extra padding up to bigger children.

Colour: lovely prints both feminine and  masculine.
Texture: I have bought a jean style carrier so its a soft jean and wears comfortable and is a nice colour.
Dimensions: its a broad and snuggly carrier, nicer for colder weather or like us for the snuggly times. The shoulder straps are comfortable even though they are not padded. The adjustments are a little tricky, but once you have set them its great.
Support: Although there are no funky buckles and straps the sling is well supporting and makes my chubby little man feel very light. Its comfortable on my front and since he has grown I've worn him comfortable on my back too.
Sleepy test: This is definitely my go to carrier for a snuggle before bedtime. When he falls asleep I unbuckle and then slide the shoulder straps down leaving me to move him to bed.
Recommend: I would definitely recommend it as it comes in different sizes to suit different bodies, there are so many patterns that I'm sure there is something for everyone and its very comfortable for baby and the wearer.

 Update: This is a great sling to wear when you are pregnant as the belt can sit nicely above the bump and still feel very supportive.

This is my personal opinion and every carrier is different for different people depending on body shape and baby shape and size. So I would always recomend seeking out a sling library to try before you buy.
