It’s You and Me Baby

Bonding with your baby is one of life’s greatest joys.

There’s no doubt about it children love to be held.  Whether it’s a newborn, infant, or toddler they love to be in the arms of their caregivers.  If your child won’t let you put him or her down and your arms are sore then consider wearing your child in a fabric baby carrier.  There are many baby carriers (also called slings) on the market to help you wear your child.  Some popular brands are Kangaroo Korner adjustable pouches, Hotslings, Maya Wrap, Moby Wrap, Cuddly Wrap, Mei tai-style carriers and others.  If your not sure which would be best for you see our post on How to Choose.  Wearing your baby this way is much more comfortable, ergonomic and versatile.  Plus it gives your child the advantages of being close to you–they feel the rhythm of your heart beat and breathing, are protected from overstimulation, can nurse discreetly, and can see the world from your vantage point.  It’s much more enjoyable for both of you.
