Why Cary Your Baby? 10 Great Reasons ...
- You get the use of your hands again! The biggest advantage to my mind of the sling is its
convenience - you can cuddle your baby and still get things done.
- A sling will support the baby, mimicking its natural shape and simulating the womb.
- Helps with bonding with mum & dad. Easy eye contact help you get to know your baby and listen/watch for any clues as to their wellbeing.
- Fantastic for breastfeeding - you can nurse discreetly in the sling, and having baby close can encourage milk supply.
- Helps baby's spine and leg as no pressure is placed on them, unlike frontpack carriers which should ideally be used for older babies only.
- Sling babies are 'up in the world' so they can develop an interest in their surroundings and their surrounding take an interest in them.
I really noticed how much more people talked to my babies when they were up in the sling rather than in a pushchair.
- Mothers constant motion can help develop inner ear and consequently a sense of balance.
- Can settle colicky babies and help them to sleep
- Carried babies are happier. Studies have shown that baby's crying is reduced by 40% to 50% (A)
- Great exercise for Mum! Even if you don't have time to go exercising, carrying baby in a sling, particularly if you go for a walk,
should help loose those pregnancy-pounds.
