BabywearingHere at Sleepy Nico we believe that Babywearing is absolutely fantastic! So if you haven’t tried it yet - we say, DO IT! Baby, but not baby for longDon’t we all know that the time when we can hold our babies close to us for as much as we want and whenever we want will come to pass only too soon? So we reckon, why waste it? Have her in the carrier and face all your daily adventures together! Help them thriveBesides, isn’t it amazing that by having you little one in the carrier with you, you can meet all her primal/survival needs! She is able to hear, smell, touch, see and even taste you. You can even provide food on tap and on the move. All of this is crucial for baby’s developing respiratory, gastrointestinal and neural systems. BondBefore you know it you’ll become a master at reading your baby’s cues. Learning her facial expressions and gestures will be happening much faster than if she was in a stroller or cot. And every time you understand what she is asking for without her having to cry for it, her trust in you grows stronger and stronger. And let others bond tooPerhaps there are other people in the family that don’t have the opportunity to spend as much time with the baby as you do, so why not let them experience the joys of babywearing? At the same time your little one will have a chance to learn their smell, voice and movement, forming a new special relationship. Shape upHaving your baby in the carrier while going for walks or doing your daily chores will make your body spend more calories because of extra weight. And as her little body grows and gains weight your stamina will continuously improve. Tots love it tooSome people might think that Babywearing is exclusively about babies, but the fact is that toddlers really do appreciate that familiar and secure feeling they’ve come to associate with their carrier. As infants grow and become more aware of the world around them it can become a little overwhelming for them at times. So to be able to escape into the safety of the sling is something that can give tots a great deal of comfort. These are only a few reasons to wear your baby and there are many more. |
