O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, than out of sperm, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that we may manifest ( Our Power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strenght; and some of you are called to die and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after known (much). And (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (To life), it swells,and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth in pairs. ( Surah al- Hajj, ayat 5, Qur'an)

Sling review: Napsack mei tai

The wonderful world of mei tai's is vast and there are so many styles,shapes and prints. The napsack is one of them and little man and I gave it a try.
Colour: Black with no pretty patterns, good for men.
Texture: A strong cotton feels durable and sturdy.
Dimensions: The body is a unique hour glass shape which gives a good rounded shape for the baby to sit with the natural curvature of the spine. The body is quite large so smaller babies are quite hidden,even my little man who is not small felt he had to peek over the top to be able to view the world. The straps are nice and wide and long enough to wrap around comfortably. Good neck support for when baby get a little bigger,this part can be folded over when baby is a little smaller.The larger body also needs tightening against the body to it smoothly so good if your baby like to be snug.
Support: I likes the waist strap as its sturdy and wide so felt well supported. The broader straps carried his weight well but as he wasn't comfortable with the difficulty he had to view his surrounding he wriggled which made it less comfortable around the waist.
Sleepy test: Unfortunately we didn't wear it long enough as we weren't that comfortable together,he likes to see more and be less snug.
Recommendation: Its a strong well made sling great for men and bigger babies and babies who like to nice and snug against the body. Maybe good as a winter carrier.

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.
