Hotsling Pool Pouch - your thoughts?

[jaceraden]

Just wondering what Mamas think of the Hotsling Pool Pouch Water Sling or whatever it's supposed to be called. I don't have one...... yet so I'd like to know how they hold up in the real world. :thumbsup:

They are really nice but be warned they run pretty big. I went by the sizing on the hs site and it said that I was a 4 so that is what I got and it was about 2 sizes too big for me. I needed a 2 in it.
It has stretch to it when baby is in it and it made DD go all the way to my hip bones instead of being at the bottom of my ribs and it balled her up so that her knees were almost touching her chest.

If you have a store near you that sells them I suggest going there and trying one out first before you buy one. I wish I had done that.

anyone else? I am also interested...
Lindsey- do you have a size 4 reg that fits from HS?
I already have a HS. I am wodering if I should get a pool one as well but will the sizes be teh same as my reg HS? :)

Well, I ordered a size 3 pool pouch yesterday (khaki) then last night I read that they fit larger than a regular HS....

THEN today a mama on TBW sold me a turquoise pool pouch in size 2! I guess I'll soon find out how they size!!!!

I love my hotsling! (It is reversible so it does not stretch). I dried it in the drier to tighten it up a bit. I think the pool ones look nice but did not get one because it seemed like they do not have the padded edge?
