I have some amusing photos of my husband wearing a sling when my first daughter was small. He would have breastfed if he could, but we stopped with the sling. It helped our baby get closer to daddy, as well.

I also want to point out that babywearing is a great load-bearing activity, which is of utmost importance for building calcium in bones and preventing osteoporosis…and crucial for breastfeeding moms who are constantly drawing on their calcium reserves to make milk!

So many great reasons to wear your baby. 🙂

Sure, she could walk just fine, but when we’d visit the Disney parks and other crowded places, even climbing the Great Wall of China and water falls in Jamaica, a sling was crucial to her and I both having a fun and safe time.
She is a bright and intelligent little girl (aged 4) who is already a beginning reader and speaks much better than her peers. I believe it’s because she was at eye level for so long that I just talked to her all the time. It’s easy to “forget” a baby in a stroller in front of you, so you don’t just chatter away at them like I did my little one right in front of my heart!
