Wallypop: Wallypop Babywearing: Pouch Slings

Wallypop Pouch Slings

Do you want the absolute simplest baby carrier on the market? The Wallypop Pouch Sling is what you're looking for. The Essential Pocket is a contoured tube of fabric that is non-adjustable but super simple to use. It may be used with baby laying down, facing you, facing out, on your hip, or on your back.

Instock pouches are available in four sizes to suit your needs, but the vast majority of the pouches we sell are Made To Order, and made to fit your body. We use a variety of fabrics in our pouches, since we've found that everyone has different preferences: 

• Sturdy but lightweight cotton.
• Linen, which is heavier yet still breathable.
• Soft and stretchy fleece for a cozy, comfortable ride.
• Soft stretch knits.

Wallypop Pouch Details:

• Sewn with a triple-stitched seam to keep your little one safe.
• Made from soft and comfortable, yet sturdy, fabrics.
• Sized for a good fit. (Please note, I can adjust them smaller for you if you wish.)
• Currently available both as instock and as made-to-order to ensure a perfect fit!
• Also available in Solarveil (great for water or hot weather) and silk (super luxurious!)

Available Options Explained:

Use Customer Fabric: Select this option if you will be sending me your own fabric. Please discuss fabric choices and requirements with me before purchasing your fabric.
Add Small Pocket: A small pocket is sewn on the front of the pouch near the seam.
Add Name Embroidery: We can embroider your child's name (or anything else) in small 1/4 inch tall letters. The addition of embroidery makes an item nonreturnable.

Please use common sense when using Wallypop slings and carriers. Keep a hand on your baby when bending, stooping, walking through a crowded area, etc. You can expect years of service from your Wallypop products, but take care to look over your slings and carriers before each use. Do not use your sling or carrier if the stitching has ripped or the straps are getting worn out. Limited wearing instructions are available here. Wallypop cannot be responsible for misuse, breeches of common sense, or any injuries that may result from the use of our slings.

Sizing

First, get out a tape measure or a piece of string. Measure yourself from the cap of your shoulder, down to the top of the opposite hip at the level you want the baby. If you are pregnant, you can either estimate for yourself how big your belly is and adjust your measurement, or you can email me for help.

Next, pick the size that most closely matches your measurement:

The red line indicates where to measure. Cap of shoulder down to opposite hip. The yellow line is where my waist is, approximately at the level of my belly button. It's most comfortable to carry the bulk of baby's weight above your belly button.

If you look at the second picture, I have measured and made the sling to fit my shoulder to hip measurement. Wally's lowest point is resting below the yellow line. This is because his weight pulls the sling down, and stretches the fabric a bit. This is what we want! This is a perfect fit for us - most of his weight is above my waist, he's not sagging onto my pelvic bone, but he's not so high that I can't see around him.

Also note that even though these photos were taken over a year apart, I have the same hairstyle in both photos. Nice.
