how to tie a wrap sling for nursing

Kirei · Mar 13th, 2012, 10:28 AM

I've got a VSL wrap sling for my newborn. We can do the legs tucked in wrap but what positions should I be looking into for nursing her? Is it possible to nurse LO in one of these wraps?

I take it its a stretchy with baby on the front? It depends on the size of your boobs tbh, as its more about positioning boob and not baby!

Hiya, yes it's a stretchy with baby at the front, my boobs are quite big at the moment, is it more a case of moving them to baby than holding baby in a certain way then?

Yea if baby is upright and facing your chest you need to move boob not baby

maybe lower baby a little but thats about it x

Thanks, I think it will take practice! I tried but made a bit of a mess sprayed milk all over my baby and the sling but didn't get any in her mouth, lol. Will keep trying though!
