De voordelen van verplegen met een Moon Ring Sling

Het moederschap is een prachtige mix van verbondenheid, chaos en constant multitasken - en het geven van borstvoeding aan je baby is daar vaak het hart van. Het kost tijd om het juiste ritme te vinden voor borst- en flesvoeding, maar de juiste hulpmiddelen kunnen het een stuk makkelijker maken. Dat is waar de ringsling van pas komt: een zachte, ondersteunende en ongelooflijk praktische manier om je baby comfortabel en discreet te voeden, waar je ook bent.

At Moon Sling, we believe in keeping things simple, sustainable, and nurturing. Our 100% linen ring slings aren’t just designed for babywearing—they’re thoughtfully made to support you through every stage of early parenthood, including those all-important nursing moments. Here’s how.

1. Feeding on the Go

Feeding your baby doesn’t always happen at the perfect time or place—but with a ring sling, you don’t have to stop what you’re doing or search for a comfortable seat. Whether you’re at home, out for a walk, or traveling, the sling supports your baby close to your body, allowing you to breastfeed while staying mobile.

Simply adjust your sling slightly to position your baby for nursing, and then tighten or loosen as needed. It’s discreet, intuitive, and game-changing for busy parents.

2. Built-In Privacy for Discreet Nursing

Breastfeeding in public can feel a little daunting at first—but a ring sling acts as a natural nursing cover. The tail of the sling can be draped over your chest or baby’s head for added privacy, without the need for bulky blankets or covers.

Quick safety note: If you choose to drape the sling tail over your baby’s head, never fully cover their face in direct sunlight. Only use it to gently filter light or reduce distractions. Always ensure your baby’s airways are clear, and check frequently to prevent heat buildup, especially on warm days.

 

The lightweight nature of linen means you and your baby stay cool and comfortable, even during warmer days, while still feeling snug and shielded.

3. Comfort for You and Your Baby

Nursing while babywearing should never be a strain. A well-positioned ring sling evenly distributes your baby’s weight across your shoulder and back, reducing pressure on your arms, wrists, and neck. It’s especially helpful during cluster feeding phases when your baby wants to nurse frequently or for longer stretches.

Plus, your baby is already in the perfect snuggly spot—close enough to hear your heartbeat and feel your warmth, which often helps with milk letdown and soothing fussy babies.

4. Supports Breastfeeding on Your Terms

Some moments call for focused, peaceful nursing, while others are more about grabbing ten minutes of calm in the chaos. A ring sling gives you the flexibility to nurse on your terms, whether you’re pacing through the house during witching hour or trying to get your toddler’s snack ready.

It also supports responsive feeding—being able to nurse quickly when your baby cues hunger, which can help with milk supply and overall feeding success.

5. Encourages Bonding

Breastfeeding is about more than just nourishment—it’s a deep bonding experience. Wearing your baby in a ring sling keeps them close, calm, and secure. The skin-to-skin contact, eye contact, and gentle sway of your movement all help build that emotional connection, even when you’re juggling the demands of daily life.

Bottle-Feeding? The Benefits Are Just as Real

Whether you’re pumping, using formula, or doing a combination of both, feeding in a ring sling offers the same practical and bonding benefits. Your baby is close to your heartbeat, nestled against your body, and enjoying that same sense of security and warmth.

It’s not about how you feed—it’s about the love, presence, and comfort that surrounds those moments. The ring sling supports all feeding journeys.

6. A Lifesaver for Babies with Reflux or Feeding Challenges

Some babies struggle with reflux, gas, or other feeding issues that make laying flat uncomfortable. In these cases, a more upright feeding position can be incredibly helpful—and that’s where the ring sling truly shines.

Keeping your baby elevated while feeding can:

  • Reduce spit-up and reflux symptoms

  • Aid digestion

  • Help soothe colicky babies

  • Encourage calmer, more relaxed feeding sessions

The sling helps you maintain that ideal upright angle, without straining your arms or constantly readjusting.

7. Linen for Breathable, Year-Round Comfort

All Moon Slings are made from 100% linen, a fabric we chose for its exceptional qualities:

  • Naturally breathable and temperature-regulating

  • Soft yet strong, even after repeated use and washes

  • Eco-friendly—linen is made from the flax plant, a renewable, chemical-free, and biodegradable resource

It’s the ideal fabric for keeping your baby close, cool, and comfortable—whether you’re feeding, napping, or just enjoying those quiet moments together.

Tips for Nursing in a Ring Sling:

  • Start by practicing nursing at home, where you’re most comfortable.

  • Wear nursing clothes made of natural and breathable fabrics and nursing bra’s for easy access. Here are some of our favorite brands:
