Baby Slings for Breastfeeding

There are many ways a baby sling will help a breastfeeding mother: you can breastfeed your baby while he is in the baby carrier, the sling holds your baby leaving you with at least one and even better two hands free. Using baby slings to breastfeed will also give your back a rest as they spread the weight around your back, hips and shoulders.

Babywearing while breastfeeding or after a feed also brings great comfort to reflux babies as they can be kept upright for longer periods of time. In a baby carrier, your little one is held close to you, you can observe him easily and learn to detect the 'Mummy I'm hungry' signs quicker and learn to distinguish those from the expressions signalling a wet nappy, a tired baby, or an upset baby.
