  "question": "Which ring slings can be used to carry a baby on one shoulder?",
  "answer": "WildBird Linen Ring Sling (single-layer): The most common tradeoffs owners mention are the load on one shoulder and the learning curve for tightening the fabric rails. WildBird Linen Sling (Ring Sling): Recurring owner criticisms are the one-shoulder load, the learning curve when tightening the rails, and reduced comfort on long heavy carries. WildBird Sparrow - Linen Sling: Praises it for fast short ups and downs and excellent packability, with the one-shoulder load, a learning curve for tightening the rails and less comfort on long heavy carries as the clearest tradeoffs.",
