When you are done feeding, bring your baby back back up to their original higher position on your chest and tighten the wrap. This video shows how I do it:. Be sure to watch the video all the way through and learn how to raise baby back up to the original position. Raising your baby back up after feeding is the most important step to breastfeeding in a wrap.
When you are done feeding, bring your baby back up to their original higher position on your chest and tighten the wrap. The MOST important step in nursing in a wrap is adjusting your baby after you are done nursing. Do not ever leave your baby in a lowered nursing position after nursing.
ALWAYS take the extra minute to bring baby back up so that their head rests on the flat part of your chest. Then tighten the carry so the baby is snug and well supported again. This image shows lifting baby up to the original position in a woven wrap, but the idea is the same. Then re-tighten the carry around the baby. Be sure to spread out the passes fully. This is demonstrated in the tutorial linked above. Before learning to breastfeed in your carrier, get really comfortable breastfeeding your baby, learn to latch your baby on well, work with your lactation consultant or La Leche League group if you need help.
Then, master using your carrier. Give yourself some time to learn to use your stretchy wrap. The first few times you try breastfeeding with your carrier, you might like to try it at home.

Thanks for sharing! I nursed my 3 mo. Question though — do you have to re-wrap the whole sling to let the babe nurse on the other side? My son tends to want to nurse on both sides, so I wonder if I would have to re-wrap it half way through to switch him around? Kristin, Yes or no…to nurse easily just as in the video, yes.
A lot of sling wearing is just wiggling and jiggling until it feels right. I love the videos! I have never used a moby wrap before but I want to. We just had our 3rd child and I need to figure out how to nurse while on the run with the other two, without doing it in the van or flashing poeple, I am six years out of practice. But Jonathan wants to nurse all of the time and when in a store he hates to be in his car seat and the front pack we do have does not work real well.
Thanks so much!!! Oh, I so hope I get another chance to make some milk for a sweet babe! Looks wonderful! Then my shirt could ride up but I was covered and not too hot. Somewhere between pounds I switch to a mei tai style carrier. Love our Moby, First time I slipped my baby in I knew it was one of the best purchases I had ever made. Baby started out at 10 lbs and while we were both healthy through the pregnancy and birth my recovery was slow and I kept basically extending my recovery carrying that much weight.
So it was hard on me for a while. But on the nights when we just needed at walk around it made all the difference. Once I was feeling better I started using it for going out and for when I needed two hands. Thanks, Katie! I got a different wrap from target when I had my daughter.
We had difficulties nursing for the first few weeks but then one day I put her in the wrap, whipped it out haha and it was the perfect position for her to nurse when I stood up. Love the Moby wrap! We lived in Scotland at the time, so we walked everywhere. My kids always decided they needed to nurse right when we needed to leave for church for some reason, no matter how hard I tried to schedule around that.
Tip for not exposing your tummy while nursing—wear a nursing tank top under your shirt. I found mine at Target and they were fairly inexpensive. That was a couple of years ago now, though. I am a huge fan of those tank tops modest people here , I have enough to get me through the week, my very favorite clothing item right now, really making nursing just so easy not to mention comfortable.
I love when people suggest those. I just had my second child 16 days ago Sept. This is so very helpful! Thank you! Great job for a six year old!! I bought one and only know how to do froggy style as that is what her video demonstrated. My son is 8 mos. I have a Bjorn but supposedly they are not as good for the baby I think you said that too. Theresa, That carrier is cool! It strikes me as a merge between a Moby and an Ergo. Where could the baby go? Is he comfortable? Then go for it! Good luck — Katie.
First, I love wearing my babies! There is a pocket in the front, too, which makes the Migo turn into a pillow when you store it in the pocket. Really — so cute and SO supportive — the extra stitching really is wonderful for the back.
