When they are newborn it's all about keeping them close, but somehow you lose that and it seems like it's less important. I don't think my 8 month old son needs me any less than he did as a newborn and wrapping helps me keep him close- he's thriving, he's engaged with his surroundings, he's happy and content and independent. I love wearing my baby. At 4 days old we were finally discharged from hospital and I laid on the sofa, unable to hold my baby in my arms as I was so weak from a massive PPH. I tucked him skin to skin up my jumper and felt at ease. Now I feel the same when he's slung and nestled into me. Baby wearing makes us both happy!
4 DAYS OLD, MY TSHIRT WAS MY MAKE-DO SLING!
8 MONTHS OLD AND STILL AS HAPPY!
