Today marks the start of #worldbreastfeedingweek so we are going to look at feeding in various slings and carriers.

Today we look at feeding in a stretchy wrap, using the lovely soft Coracor Wrap.

When feeding in a sling,

• Always support babies head;
• Ensure babies hands cup the breast;
• Made sure there is no fabric behind baby's head;
• Monitor baby at all times for latching on and off,
• When finished, always reposition baby upright.

Top Tip Tuesday

Last week we discussed the importance of a pelvic tilt, many people asked how to do it.

So this video shows you how to ensure this in a front and back carry.

Front carry - put your hands between baby and sling, scoop round the hips forwards. This brings the hips towards you. Ensuring knees are higher and bum is lower. This in turn ensures the natural curve of babies spine.

For a back carry - reach behind, tilt pelvis up towards you, bringing knees higher. You can see I lift the bum to ensure the waistband is flat and horizontal. If baby is sat into the waistband this can effect position.

This video shows how you can front carry with the cross straps pre-clipped. This is a great option if you are in a rush or want to put the carrier on before going out. Just ensure to get the panel right up and adjusted before tightening.
