Sensory disorders are pleasant because they don’t feel so constricted
I wanted to let you know that not only do I LOVE this sling, but my little girl is also FULLY enthusiastic about it (and that’s not a matter of course with her). I already have a lot of scarves from different manufacturers at home, but none of them are both extremely elastic and really stable – and so timelessly pretty. I can only repeat myself: we love, love, love it. And the length is just perfect – finally, no cloth that I feel like I could wrap around baby and myself five times and still have to worry about wiping the floor with it.
Sensational!

Baby sling for your newborn
Our youngest children and newborns in particular love being close to their parents. Being carried by mom and dad calms them and gives them a sense of security. The design and material of our slings is perfect for carrying your newborn baby. The size of the sling allows you to take important ergonomic aspects into account. Please always consult your midwife or babywearing consultant. Very young children in particular should be supported in their physical development. The elastic baby sling is recommended by many midwives and babywearing consultants, especially in the first few weeks of life.
Baby sling – carrying as a workout? Of course!
If you start babywearing soon after the birth, you will start with a light, small baby. Listen to your body – if you can’t go on and need to sit down, then by all means do so! You can slowly increase the wearing time. As your baby grows and gets heavier, you can slowly train your muscles. So babywearing can help you get fit again! The most important thing is to wear them correctly so that you are not in pain. Wide fanned-out fabric panels over the back ensure optimum weight distribution. Make sure that your baby is carried high enough so that it is comfortable (head-kiss height). If you fan out the fabric panels of the cocoo.me sling over the shoulders, this also makes it more comfortable to wear!
How do I dress my baby properly in spring?
Basically, your baby sling replaces a layer of clothing. For us, this means that if your child is wearing a long-sleeved shirt indoors, you can take it off when carrying them. We replace this layer of clothing with the warmth of your body and the protective sling. Wool or wool-silk clothing regulates the temperature and prevents your baby from sweating. A change of clothes on hikes is also a good idea! Most important are the legs – these are outside the sling and therefore need to be protected. Leg warmers are best suited for this. They keep the legs warm and can also be pulled over the feet of small babies. For head protection, we recommend a thin hood or the cocoo.me clip-in hood for the jacket extension.
How can I tell if my baby is too warm or too hot?
The basic rule is: always check the temperature of your baby’s neck – if it is neither sweaty nor cold there, your baby is perfectly dressed.
Is a baby sling too warm for my baby in summer?
Please consult your babywearing consultant. Of course, you should always make sure that your baby does not overheat in summer. Sweating and wet clothing could also cause a cold if you are not careful. However, sweat also regulates the newborn’s body temperature through proximity and even cools the body. However, if you need a break or take your baby out, make sure you have spare clothes with you. Preparation is everything. Always take a scarf or sun hat with you in summer to protect you from strong sunlight. Tip: The cocoo-me® sling can also be tied in two layers and is therefore slightly cooler.
What should you look out for when choosing a baby sling?
We always recommend that you speak to your midwife or babywearing consultant. There are so many different variants and brands. It’s easy to lose sight of the essentials. We pay attention to the fabric composition, the size of the sling and pleasant colors. In addition, we produce in Europe and therefore have much better control over individual production steps (our material is GOTS-certified). The carrying comfort then results from the many possibilities that our baby sling offers. On the one hand due to its size (5m x 0.5m) and on the other hand due to its perfect elasticity. Our baby sling is definitely skin-friendly and perfect for the little ones.
Did you know that you can also carry your baby after a caesarean section?
What is important if you want to carry your baby after a caesarean section?
- Only start when you feel fit enough! In the meantime, cuddling up skin to skin and spending lots of time together in bed helps.
- Start with short wearing intervals. Don’t overload your body and stop carrying when your body signals that it needs a break.
- Remember: carrying in a sling is better than on your arm. It is gentler on your overall posture and also your pelvic floor. Carrying your baby in a sling also relieves pressure. So before you carry your baby in your arms, tie it into the sling!
Are you carrying your baby at the right height?
Can I use the sling as a sleeping aid for babies?
Carrying can be used as a great sleep aid! Why? Because newborns in particular feel super comfortable in a sling. On the go, on outings or family gatherings, at parties, when you go out in the evening – your baby can simply be with you and sleep peacefully in the sling. This also gives you as parents a certain amount of freedom without overstimulating your baby. Even in the evening, when many impressions from the day are being processed, babywearing can help your baby to fall asleep safely and soundly. And even if the fear of spoiling is great: don’t worry! Sleeping habits can be lovingly changed at any time. Do what makes you feel good and how your baby can best fall asleep!
CAN YOU CARRY TWINS IN A SLING?
With our baby sling (cocoo-me Sling) it is even possible to carry twins! You can find Anja Liersch’s instructions on our Insta account here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CRPQaLzlHOQ/
Carrying helps your baby with tummy ache
The prerequisite for this is the squat-spread posture. This means that your knees are level with your bottom. You can achieve this by making sure that the lengths of scarf reach the back of the knees and that the scarf is properly tightened and well tied. Thanks to this position, air can escape better and bowel movements can also make their way out much more easily! Carrying also gives your baby a feeling of security and safety if they feel unwell – this also helps your baby to feel fit and well again more quickly ❤
How long can I wear my baby with the cocoo.me sling?
The cocoo.me sling is not only particularly soft, cuddly, easy to tie and a real eye-catcher – you can also use it for a really long time! Tested up to 15 kg, it even holds your toddler really well and provides you with pleasant carrying moments! ❤ At cocoo.me, we make sure that you can use all products for a long time. That’s why our jacket extension for babywearing is practical even during pregnancy. Thanks to the two different thickness inserts, you have the right jacket for any weather!
How to wash the cocoo-me® Sling correctly
The cocoo-me® sling is made from 95% organic cotton (kBa) and 5% elastane (GOTS-certified). That’s why you should only wash it at 30°C and at a low spin speed. This protects the fibers and ensures that you can enjoy your scarf for a long time! It is best to lay the cloth over a clothes horse to dry – it is not suitable for the tumble dryer. It is best to use an ecological, liquid detergent without fragrances, perfumes, etc. This is particularly gentle on the cloth and is also the best choice for your baby. Do you have the feeling that the scarf can no longer be tied or tightened well? Put it in the washing machine once! Then you can easily tie it again. 🧺 Our bolster is filled with wool. Therefore, do not wash in the machine under any circumstances. 🧺 Make sure that your detergent does not contain bleach. We also recommend a detergent without enzymes. Do not use fabric softener! 🧺 Wash at a maximum of 30 degrees. If you have stubborn stains on your cloth, treat them by hand before washing. 🧺 Select a gentle wash program with a low spin speed. 🧺 Your baby sling must never be put in the dryer. Leave it to dry flat on a clothes horse. 🧺 No ironing necessary due to the elastic material.
TIP for tying the cocoo-me® Sling
Remember to let the shoulder strands run nice and wide over the shoulder. This distributes your baby’s weight wonderfully. The strands of cloth should also be fanned out nicely over the back. Because this is how you really achieve an optimal result! Another little trick: If you have closed the sling at the back with a double knot, you can bring the sling strands forward again along your pelvis and close them at the front with a single knot. This also reduces the weight and makes it more comfortable to wear!
How tightly should the cocoo-me® Sling be tied?
When pre-tying the elastic sling, you should make sure that it fits snugly around your body. The elastic material will give a little when you put your baby in it. It is important that your baby is close enough to your body – when you lean forward, your baby should stay close to your body. If it is tied too tightly, you can follow the sling lines and loosen it a little when your baby is already tied in. Parents often need 2 to 3 attempts to tie the sling “correctly” – practice makes perfect. 🥰
How much does a baby sling cost? How much does a baby sling cost?

Free airways when babywearing with a baby sling
You often see parents pulling the sling or headrest completely over the baby’s head. However, this can be very dangerous! Remember that only the back of the child’s head should ever be supported. The nose and mouth remain free. The supply of fresh oxygen ensures that your baby does not rebreathe CO2 – this can be very dangerous. The baby becomes very sleepy and tired. It can even lead to death. Unfortunately, a baby will not respond if it is not getting enough oxygen – this is a misconception! Therefore: only ever support the back of the head, the nose and mouth must be visible. For free airways with our sling in combination with the button elastic, there is a great video on our Instagram account:

. This also makes babywearing with a baby sling safer for your baby.
Babywearing with a baby sling during pregnancy
Are you pregnant again and still have a toddler at home who still likes to be carried? Don’t worry – in a healthy pregnancy there is nothing to stop you from carrying your child. Especially with back ties, carrying is also easier on your body. With the sling, you also have no annoying waist belt that can press on your baby’s tummy. The Double Hammock is ideal for carrying your toddler during pregnancy. It takes the pressure off your arms, you have no pressure on your baby’s tummy and your child gets the closeness it needs. Pay attention to your body and its signals! If you have the feeling that carrying is not good for you and you are also very exhausted and feel pressure on your baby bump, you should not carry your baby. Then take a break and sit down – cuddle with your child and give the gift of closeness
Carrying in the puerperium
Are you wondering whether you can carry your baby in the postpartum period? We want to give you a few pointers to help you carry your baby to term. – Even if you feel fit – the postpartum period is absolutely important for your body. This allows the uterus to regress without complications and breastfeeding works better. – If you have painful scars, you should not wear them and follow the doctor’s advice. Bed rest! – If you already have siblings, ask for your partner’s support. If this is not available, there are also family helpers who can support you at home! – When you carry your baby for the first time, you should not be alone. Always listen to your body and take your baby out of the sling as soon as you realize that carrying is no longer working. Remember: carrying close to your body is always better for your musculoskeletal system than carrying your baby in your arms.
Carrying twins in a sling – is that even possible?
The simplest is the pre-tied wrap cross stretcher. Each baby is placed in a sheet – these are fanned out nicely over the babies. This is followed by the transverse track over both children. This option can be super practical, especially at the beginning! 
As the babies get bigger, you can carry one on your back and one in front of your tummy – we recommend carrying the twin, which is a little more chilled (
) on the back, as they usually have to wait longer to get out. The sling and baby carrier can also be combined – there are also baby carriers that are specially designed for carrying twins. The advantage of having two different carrying systems is that both parents can also carry the twins separately!Would you like to continue wearing your jackets before your pregnancy or birth? Then we have the perfect jacket insert for you just a CLICK away.
The pre-tied wrap-around cross stretcher
The pre-tied wrap cross carrier with the elastic sling allows you to enjoy a stress-free outing with your baby. Pre-tied at home, you can easily take your baby out of the carrycot and put them in the sling when you’re out and about – for example when shopping. This method of tying also makes life easier at home – you can take your baby out of the sling for breastfeeding, changing or other purposes. Then simply integrate it again and you’re ready to go!
