The front carry begins with the Basic Wrap. Using this wrap you can wear baby away from or towards you with their legs and arms either in or out. To take baby out of this carry, leave the wrap on and simply reverse the steps.
---------------
Hold baby high on your shoulder and slip their feet into the cross one at a time.
Keep one hand on the baby at all times.
Spread the crossed fabric out between baby's legs and over their back. Small babies may feel more secure with the fabric completely covering their head. To nurse discreetly, spread the fabric out enough to cover your chest.
You can stop at this point if you wish . . .
or pull the waist belt over baby's feet and create an extra pouch for their bottom. You may even wish to tuck their feet in.
Using the same procedure baby can face away from you. As an option, feel free to pull down the belt and tuck baby's legs inside. *Any time you wear your baby facing away from you, be sure to rotate baby's hips away from you. This will relieve any pressure put on baby's spine and mimic the natural curve of baby's body.*
