Slingers

[Butterfly Dawn]

We love our sling, but we have 1 consistant problem, overheating of the baby.
Nobody likes a grumpy sweaty baby so- how do I dress her when we are slinging it?
And any other tips would be appreciated

How long on average do you wear your child every day?

[TeniBear]

It depends where we're going, but on an average day I'd wear her for 1-2 hours a day. Sometimes more, sometimes less

I tend to dress her normally, but wear thin clothes myself so we're not both sweltering...

I wear ds one to two hours a day, but dd was worn four or more hours a day. I always dress them in as many layers as I wear. I find vests are good for outdoors so they don't get too hot. I haven't found ds gets too hot, but dd was a summer babe (that horrendous summer of 08/09) and on the 43 degree days she was just in a nappy.
