There are several options for carrying your new infant with you while you’re shopping, walking, or visiting friends and family. The stroller tends to be the traditional method for transporting your baby, and is a great option for a new infant who doesn’t like to be held and jostled around. The baby carrier is another option for older infants, and most fit snugly around a mother or father’s body and allow for freedom of movement. Another option that has gained popularity recently is the baby sling.
The baby sling is a fabric cloth which is wrapped around the mother’s neck and shoulder and used to cradle the infant against her chest. While lacking the support of a baby carrier, the baby sling tends to feel the most natural to the mother and the infant.
