ring sling

ring sling is easy to recognized coz it has 2 rings as buckles to tie the other end of cloth.

the rings is made specially to be used for slings coz it can carry weight up to 200kg. it doesnt mean that we should wear slings up to that weight. is just an example to show how sturdy those rings. good rings has no obvious joint.like rattan/rotan ring...it has obvious joints. for newborn should be ok,but as baby grows,it is not advisable to use that rings. the rings also comes in many size... depends on what type of fabric to be use as sling.rings can be made from metal or nylon.

the fabric is comes in wide variety.... any fabric will do. but again it depends to weather. there most common is cotton and silk. i think cotton is the best coz it not so hot for our climate and less slippery. silk is nice coz it soft and less bulky but when carry heavy baby/toddler... it tends to slippery.

the most important part to look at ring sling is the shoulder pleats. if it heavily padded.... it can lead to bulkiness issue and uncomfortable to the wearer. ive xperience with this kind of shoulder pleats. i dun like it and initially it makes me hate my ring sling.the shoulder part should be spread out like wearing pouch sling. i loved the idea of jan andrea regarding overlapping pleats

who says u must buy those expensive ring sling in order to wearing ur baby? in my frugaliving tips (not mine actually,coz i learn it from other people as well...LOL), u just need a pair of sling rings (a pair of nylon rings only cost u rm4) and a pieces of long cloth... 2 meter should be good enuf. u can buy sweet cotton print cloth at kamdar... (about rm8 per metre) or just use those kain batik that u buy from langkawi or pasar malam... hehehe

babywearing

im in love with bbwearing right now. its a new adventorous after breastfeeding and cloth diapering.

i start bbwearing since my bb 1 mo. my first sling is regin ring sling. but use very seldom esp during outing coz i dun like the ring and i dunno how to adjust. but at home i always use it as anis love to cling with me... i will breastfeed her in the sling and she will fell asleep in there.
with the sling, it makes me easy to carry anis.

then i know about pouch sling... i buy Littlepods pouch sling. really loved it. but i haved it in wrong sized. im not sure coz according to the measurement chart , i should wear s size... but end up... i cant put anis into the pouch... very ketat. i try to exchange the size with littlepods owner but very dissapointed coz she not entertain my request very well... she insisted me to wear that s size....sigh... to me...its a very bad customer service.

luckily, from one forum, there are one mommies who want to sell her m size littlepods pouch sling coz its too big for her. so, i take this oppurtunity to exchange my sling with her....

after i get the m size sling...it fit very wel with me and anis. we enjoy our bonding time ever. just like breastfeeding, sling also is usefull anytime... anywhere.

then i get to know jess who are so passion to promote bbwearing awareness in malaysia. luckily shes in penang and i can join her bbwearing workshop to learn more about bbwearing types.

shes making a very good pouch sling too... im tempting to get one too....

now...im eying for wrapping coz with wrap... it distributed bb weight very well. even it looks complicated, with practise... all become easy.

i totally forgot my password.

everyday i keep on thinking what kind of password that i put in my blog account.

nowadays totally pelupa la. with so many password that i have to memorised... atm, online banking, emel, facebook, friendster, bla, bla bla.... the list never end

my mistake also coz using those weird weird password... end up, i forget about it.

old malay always says...dont eat fish head... u will become forgetfullness. but fish head is my favourite esp those crispy fish head.

one of my school fren advice me about this... that was when i eat my bekal during recess. she said... dun eat fish head, u will become pelupa. then i said back to her while eating the fish head... stop nagging me, after i eat this, i will forget ur advice already.

hahahaha....silly me...
