The hotsling is a self-described “hands-free baby sling” that aims to convenience parents while bringing a baby closer to its mother or father. I find it to be just that. I ordered a hotsling in early August of 2006, right after my son was born. I got it and began to use it when my son was just three weeks old. He is now six months old, and we still use the hotsling whenever we go out. I have found that breastfeeding him in the sling got easier as he got older, since he is bigger and positioned much closer to my breast than when he was a tiny newborn (he seemed swallowed whole in the sling then!). However, since he is heavier now, I feel more of a strain on my shoulders and sometimes my back, depending on how he is positioned.
But overall, I would definitely rate this sling as being worth the buy and use. It makes outings much easier, since we do not have a double stroller and our two year old is too heavy to carry around yet not old enough to walk everywhere, and I know my son enjoys being so close to me.
This sling is also very soft, very flexible, and easy to clean – all definite pluses!
