Advantages: Super comfortable, soft and looks good Disadvantages: Takes a bit of practice
...one I liked.
A Calin Bleu is a wrap around sling, it's a long piece of cloth that you wrap around yourself and the baby. You can carry your baby on your front, on your back or on the hip. You can start carrying them from birth to toddlers (about 12-14kg).
The first impression is that it's light and super soft (I have both the cotton and the fleece versions)
It's surprisingly comfortable, you can't really feel the child's weight because it spreads ... ...easily carry my heavy 9-month old.
They were easy to wash in the washing machine (gentle wash) and dried quickly. With this wrap, you can carry the child for hours, not just to go from A to B but around the house when they are clingy and you need to get stuff done. Apparently, they're also quite good for reflux babies who need to be kept upright. If you have more than one child, it's quite easy to carry the little one in the sling and push the older ...

Advantages: Comfortable and stylish Disadvantages: Took a little while to learn how to use it
I purchased a Calin Bleu Gauze wrap when my 3rd baby was quite small, directly from the manufacturers website, to give me another option for keeping him close while getting on with looking after my elder 2 children.

Quick review of Calin Bleu Baby Sling
Have been using the Calin Bleu wrap with my son since he was 10 days old. He's now 8 1/2 months and I am still wrapping him. Found the wrap easy to use after a little practice and now can put him on in no time. Wrap is really comfortable and doesn't "pull" as the weight is well distributed across your back. Has allowed me to get out and about easily and have barely used the buggy. Also allowed hands-free to deal with older sister! Had great support from Anne @ Calin Bleu via local Sling Meet group and have been learning new ways to carry. Wish I'd had one with my daughter. Highly recommended. ...
