Abstract

A sling for holding a baby bottle. In the preferred embodiment, the invention includes a rectangular pad having two stuffed end sections and an unstuffed middle section, on which the bottle rests. An elastic loop helps to hold the bottle in place. The elastic loop is attached to a first strap, which is removably retained on the end sections of the rectangular pad by strips of hook and loop fasteners. Second and third straps are attached to the end sections of the rectangular pad, and have strips of hook and loop fasteners adjacent to their ends, by which they can be. removably retained in loops to hold D-shaped rings. Fabric strips may be attached directly to the rings or to outer straps attached to the rings, with strips of hook and loop fasteners by which they may be removably retained in loops for attachment to narrow elongated objects.
