Guess who was the first person to use the Sa-Be carrier (cornflower blue) with our newest addition......hubby! I was very proud, although I discovered it's quite hard to tie a sling onto someone else - you never quite know how tight to do it....! For all the OH's out there who aren't sure about babywearing, my hubby said he's never had so much female attention, ever! A friend of mine saw him on the school run for our eldest and said the women were flocking around him and cooing over both him and the baby. The owner of Sa-Be Babywear has even asked if he would allow her to take some pictures of him wearing Bubba 2 - so you never know where slinging will lead....
Since then I have to admit, I've felt the competition and I'm pleased to report that I've used the hot pink Sa-Be on several occasions - once on the school run and once to a local nursery open day, where there was a Sa-Be stall and I ended up demo-ing how to tie it in the newborn position! I hope that led to a sale....... I also bought a couple of dribble bibs which are manufactured by Sa-Be. They have fleece on the back to stop the drool soaking through to baby's clothes and there are some lush patterns and colours available.

I am friends with the owner of the company. We met when I was asked through a mutual friend to model for the initial advertising shots when the company launched in 2009. I was a babywearer already and was really impressed with the products and proceeded to use the stretchy Sa-Be daily until my daughter was 18 months old and on several occasions until she was 3 years old.
All the opinions about the SaBe slings in my blog are my own, but any factual information such as pricing, availability, safety testing, etc is checked with the company and accurate at the time of publishing the post.
