People frequently ask about nursing in a baby carrier. The first advice is usually to feel comfortable doing each individually before putting them together. Normally by this age (almost 4 months) I am doing this pretty frequently. However, with this little guy, we’ve had some nursing struggles, including a tongue tie release and possible need for lip tie still. Today was the first time I nursed him in a buckle carrier and it went great! We were walking around the @milwaukeepublicmuseum and not needing to sit down and be apart from the rest of the family was very convenient. . Tips for nursing in a carrier: . 1. Loosen shoulder straps 2. Lower baby to breast height. 3. Retighten 4. Nurse 5. Raise baby back up to be high and tight as soon as active nursing is done. . Do you or have you fed a baby in a carrier? For more details about a variety of ways a baby can be fed in a carrier visit the blog on my website (link in profile).

In addition to my business, I am also on the board of @chicagolandbabywearing. We are getting to roll out a membership discount program. If you are interested in being part of this program or would like to donate to our birthday celebration giveaway, let me know! We’d love your support!
