When a baby is worn in a sling attached to his mother he feels the rhythm of her breathing, the sounds of her heart beating, and the movements she’s making. For newborns and young infants this stimulation helps them regulate their own physical responses. For example, being held in a sling exercises a baby’s vestibular system which controls balance. The sling is like a transitional womb for a new baby whose nervous system is learning to control his bodily functions and movements. Research has shown that premature babies who are touched and held gain weight at a faster rate and are sent home sooner than babies who aren’t. Mechanical swings and other holding devices do not provide the same benefits. Wear your baby. www.itsyouandmebaby.com
