Crying in sling

[bumphope]

My little girl loves her sling, all the time we are moving!

If I stop for more than a couple of seconds (literally), she sort of hunches her body up and starts whinging and crying. I feel like she's uncomfortable?

But then she's happy again the second I start moving. She's perfectly happy to sleep in the sling and stays asleep if I stop, so i guess she can't be that uncomfortable?

Does anyone have any advice on this - perhaps she just likes to be on the go?!

Emily's the same I just tap her bottom if I stop moving it works most of the time !

Hehe thanks... Maybe its just one of those things... Perhaps its our babies way of getting us back in shape!!! X

Some babies just need more movement. It should calm down as your baby gets used to being outside the womb.

My daughter has been like this too in her wrap. I think she gets bored if I'm just standing still. I found bouncing up and down while staying in one place delayed it. Great way to get in shape anyways!

Yup. Tried the bouncing... It works for a minute or two as you say.

Pleased I'm not the only one with the standing still issue! I was worried it meant she didn't like the sling!
