Ahhhhh... Absolute Comfort for Baby and Mommy

My baby is the most cuddly thing I ever met. And I love cuddling with him. But there's a point everyday where I just can't cuddle with him anymore. He's gets heavy, squirmy, and big brother wants to play at the train table... oh, and dinner needs to be cooked. So, for a while, I tried to put the baby down in the swing, or the high chair, or his bouncy seat... but no matter where he goes, he starts crying out. And as soon as I lift him, he's silent again.

So a few friends recommended "wearing" him. My first thought, I'm petite, the slings and pouches will take up my whole body. Plus, he'll get in the way... or what if he falls out??

Well, I tried it, and it didn't take long for me to LOVE wearing him! When I put my little guy in my Hotsling Fleece Pouch, I'm comfortable, and he's in heaven. Seriously, whether awake or asleep, he has the most content look on his face.

The Hotsling is so well made. The stitching is very secure, and I'm not fearful of dropping him at all. The fleece is very thick, so it almost feels like there is padding on my shoulder--which means no strain. And its so soft! DS is cuddly inside the sling: he's warm, padded and still so close to me.

Along for the Ride carries Hotslings and another carrier, the Mei Tai Baby Hawk, in a range of stylish fabrics. I love the Blue Lilly Pouch and the Flashback Reversible Pouch is so fun! Buy any 2 carriers and receive $10 off your order at Along for the Ride! Enter voucher code tenoff2 at checkout to receive your discount. Offer is valid with any combination of carriers. This offer cannot be combined with any other special or discount.

The baby featured in this picture isn't mine, but he pretty much defines my little guy's comfort in our Hotsling.

I LOVE my hotsling. I've got the pucci-esque print in the photo, and get comments everywhere I go. My three month old loves riding facing out (kangaroo style) or snuggled in on my hip to sleep.

I have to mention, I thought I lost my Hotsling while shopping the other day. I was so upset!! Searched everywhere... tearing up the, already, messy ailes in the store.

Thank goodness it was in my car!
