Nursing in sling
I finally figured it out. I've been trying to get the hang
of the snuggle hold, since she likes to be more upright. So I put her in, and we walked around for a little bit trying to get us both comfy. Eventually I noticed her nose was right at nipple level, pulled up my shirt, and shoved her on. Hands-free is ok but not great. One-handed is as good as our normal (cross-cradle, sitting with pillow, also one-handed) position. Don't even have to flip her upright to burp (although if she spits, my whole front plus sling will need washing). And the best part is, I can walk around while I nurse! I still can't visualize how she could nurse in one of the lying-down sling positions, but we'll either figure it out, or find something else that works for us. Phoebe |
