Guatemalan sling


You guys know those very expensive baby carriers and slings that you can get in the states? Well, here is the Guatemalan version. They are made from a really thick fabric and are very sturdy! I love using ours! We always get funny looks from the Guatemalans though, because they almost always carry their babies on their backs! I just don't have the skills for that. :)

Enjoy the little video.

Oh my gosh- cutest kid ever. =) I do not like my (very expensive, gifted) sling that I got for Hannah. I will definitely be looking into another type for our future babies. That looks great. How is it for newborns?

I've been thinking about getting a sling to carry Samuel in but they sure are pricey. He's 12 months now and I imagine I could carry him in a sling like that for a while longer and it wouldn't break my back like carrying him regularly. Thanks for sharing.
