Winter Baby Slinger

Slingokurtki is a kind of comfortable new product in our market. With the growing popularity of all sorts of slings and ergo-packs, special jackets appeared on the market that can be worn directly on them. Such clothes are especially relevant in the cool off-season and in winter. She will save the mother with the baby from the frost, and the child does not need a separate outerwear and thick booties, because he will be completely hidden and warmed in her mother's slingokurtka.

In winter, winding a sling over a warm jacket is quite problematic, it slides over a smooth fabric, it doesn’t draw out well. And the baby, who will have to wear a thick winter overalls, will not be too comfortable and physiological to sit in a sling. Ease of use slingokurtki also lies in the fact that all kinds of rubber bands and cords will tighten the product in those places where it can blow.

True, there are models where the baby can be worn on the back. In any case, when using the mother slingokurtki hands are released. The child is comfortable to wear without straining the muscles of the arms and back. Mom is becoming more mobile - you can freely visit shops, clinics, museums, and even the necessary travel by public transport ceases to be an unsolvable problem. After all, now you no longer need to first carry a bulky stroller through the snowdrifts with you, and then look for a place to fasten it.

Being under a jacket, the crumb is securely sheltered from wind and cold, it is quite comfortable.

According to psychologists, it is important for babies to feel that mother is always there, he feels her warm and familiar smell. Such children in physical, psychological and mental terms develop better than their peers.

The difference between the main models of sling jackets and the usual ones is that there is a special insert in the front center of it that makes the jacket wider. This insert clips to the slinger with two zippers. It is necessary in order to wear the product during pregnancy or already directly with a child in a sling. The design of the insert is such that, if necessary, you can stick the head of the child out, while the mother's neck and chest will remain closed, as there is an additional detachable zipper between the neck of the mother and the neck of the child. On the inset there is often a convenient detachable, fitted with a drawstring hood for the baby.

A regular baby sling is tailored to fit both the mother and the baby in the sling. But there are universal models-transformers for winter 2-1 1, 3-с and even 4-in. The 2in1 slingokurt is equipped only with an insert designed for slip support. If it is not used, then the product will fasten on the front zipper, like a normal full-fledged jacket. Accordingly, it can be worn when you go out without a child. Also, this jacket can be worn and subsequent winters until you get bored.

A 3in1 slingokurt besides an insert for a baby has one more insert for pregnant women. It is narrower than the one intended to carry the child. When the last trimester of pregnancy falls at the end of autumn and winter, it is convenient to buy such a sling jacket.If the end of pregnancy is at the end of winter-spring, there will not be much sense in it, since you can only carry the child in it next winter, when he will be almost a year old - at this age it’s not very convenient to carry the baby in a sling.

4in1 slingokurt is even more versatile, except for the functions of a regular jacket, the presence of a removable insert for pregnant women and a sling for wearing with the child, such a product has the possibility of a shoulder strap; Additional removable dummy for the mother and a baby hood - convenient options for more comfortable use of winter slingokurt.

The greater the density of insulation (as a rule, it is synthetic, in order to avoid allergic reactions), the warmer the jacket will be in winter. But do not think that a jacket with a large amount of insulation will make you thick and unwieldy - in modern models thin material is used, but at the same time it perfectly saves heat. In addition to the well-known fleece, which is usually used as an additional warming of the back and chest in winter skirt coats, manufacturers warm their products with holofiber, holofan, tinsuleyt, isosoft or thermofin.

If you need a jacket for active types of winter recreation, and even a baby is not a hindrance for you in this, then a membrane slingo jacket will be the best solution. The membrane is a “breathing” waterproof material that perfectly removes moisture from the body and does not allow the body to overheat during excessive physical exertion. Membrane slingokurtki can be worn from autumn to spring, in the cold, poddevaya only an additional layer of fleece. But if you move a little or stand in the cold for a long time, then you will hardly be able to appreciate all the excellent properties of this fabric.

Winter Slingokurt Park or Alaska Park is a warm jacket of a dense moisture-proof mantle material lined with artificial hypoallergenic insulation. The back is often elongated. The hood of such jackets is usually equipped with a detachable fringe of faux fur. There are also a pair of large, usually diagonal, chest pockets and a pair of overhead large pockets at the bottom of the sling jacket. The colors are classic for parks (khaki, navy, mustard, brown). Such a stylish sleek jacket is not fat and looks great like a regular jacket (without an insert).

Slingokurtki large size, 50+ can be sewn to order or buy ready-made, for example, the brand I Love Mum sew jackets up to size 56.

Slingokurtki is not a cheap pleasure, therefore, most often buyers pay attention to domestic producers, the benefit, the market segment, aimed at meeting the needs of mothers and children, grows and develops every year.

Pregnant women who are going to wear their baby in a sling in the future are buying winter coats. But it is worth mentioning that the child should be planted in a sling at the age not earlier than 2-3 months. That is, there is a high probability that this jacket is useful for its intended purpose only for the next winter. But, in any case, you need to consider that a child older than a year, especially one who already knows how to walk, is no longer very comfortable to wear a sling under a winter jacket. In the extreme case, if you cannot “make friends” with the sling, you can always wear a sling jacket like a regular winter jacket, especially if you managed to find an interesting “non-beat” model.

So, what do you need to pay attention to when choosing a winter baby slinger? First of all, you should like the jacket externally, the color of the fabric should be to the face, and the style should be decorated and not constrained by movements. Next, check the quality of sewing products, pay special attention to the seams. Do not hesitate to smell the jacket, because you will use it not only, but also the baby. The presence of roomy pockets will help mom to solve the issue of storing various small things, such as a phone, handkerchiefs or keys. Pay attention to the presence of the scenes on the slide, they will be needed to adjust the size.

For winter, high-quality dense insulation is important, and the presence of a windproof and moisture-resistant coating will be an irreplaceable function during wet snow. Convenient hoods on the winter skling jacket will serve as additional protection against wind and precipitation for you and your child. An elongated jacket for the cold season is preferable to a short one, since it will much better cover the vulnerable places from bad weather.

Just put the child in slingokurtku not work, it does not for this, no special devices. First you need to buy slingosharf or ergo-backpack. Slingokurtka is just a comfortable extended outerwear that does not allow mom and baby to freeze.

The position of the baby under the jacket should be comfortable, if the crumb still does not know how to hold his head, it is necessary to take care that his sling is well supported.

You don’t need to wear a separate winter overalls to your child, since he will already have a warmed jacket, but you shouldn’t put him in a dressing-gown in some sliders either. And for mom, making a decision about buying a winter slingokurtki, you should definitely take care of purchasing shoes with non-slip soles.
