Nursing in your baby carrier

Photobucket
Babywearing makes nursing easy, discreet and hands-free. Nursing in public has never been easier. With just a few tips and adjustments you'll be a pro.
Most mom's find wearing a low cut or button up shirt to be easier to pull down versus pulling your shirt up from the bottom. Nursing clothes make it even simpler!

Ring Sling:
You can nurse with a ring sling in the tummy to tummy, cradle or hip carry.
In the cradle hold: simply adjust your shirt, latch baby on and pull the tail up over your shoulder for discretion.
Other positions: you may need to loosen the fabric in the rings just slightly to lower baby to breast level. Latch baby on, re-tighten the rails and drape the tail over your shoulder.

Mei Tai/ABC:
Nurse in the front or hip carry.
For both carries adjust your shirt, then the carrier. You may need to loosen the waist straps to lower baby to breast level. Re-tie the straps, latch baby on and pull up the head support to provide privacy. When baby is done simply tighten the straps again.
