Talkback: 10 of the best baby carriers and slings

Anyone considering this carrier should be made aware that there are safety concerns with positional asphyxia in such a deep pocketed sling - the baby's head is pushed forwards on to the chest. http://babyslingsafety.blogspot.com/ The research was sone on this carrier.

Meant to say the infantino sling rider.

If you like the style of this and the Baba sling I would recommend an unpadded ring sling. They are far more adjustable so are more comfortable for parent and safer for baby - always make sure support is more being baby's shoulders, and that head rest back - not forward.

i had a unpadded ring sling, it was so so comfy for me and having tried lola in a friends premaxx i could see how much better her posistion was in my freedom sling, I cant believe nothings been said about the chin on chest i see daily in most of the slings, Isnt that what they panic over in carseats?
