Finding the best way to "wear" your baby while nursing can often times be as difficult as finding the best bra. To me, babywearing and breastfeeding are two things that go hand-in hand. It's about intuitive parenting; keeping baby close and adapting to her needs. This is why you'll want a carrier that is versatile, comfortable, supportive, and dependable. I know for me, I went through many types from sling to pouch to sport carriers before finally coming along to wraps. I fell in love best with the ease in which I could breastfeed with The Sleepy Wrap (RTV $39) . At first, I thought it would be way too complicated for my simple mind to understand, but I figured out the logistics pretty quickly with their easily followed directions. Then I wondered if being wrapped up in a bunch of stretchy cotton would make me and baby feel overheated in the Florida sun, but I quickly realized it was as comfortable as carrying her except with hands free convenience and truly awesome in the cooler weather since my body heat distributed to my daughter as well. I appreciated the portability the Sleep Wrap afforded us, as I'd easily pack it up in our diaper bag and without rings or hooks, it was simple to use as a separate nursing cover and blanket if we accidentally forgot ours. We used our Green Sleepy Wrap all the time up to her first birthday (although you may wear yours longer) and wore and breastfed my daughter in it everywhere from Duval Street in Key West to Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco and received plenty of compliments not only on the sling, but by what a happy well behaved baby we carried around. Since then Sleepy Wrap has become one of my go-to presents for expecting friends and with 14 colors options including one natural organic, and 27 reasons that make this wrap better than others on the market, it's easy to see why everyone has loved receiving one as their shower gift. Buy your own Sleepy Wrap on their website or find it at a store near you where average retail value is a well spent $39.

Sleepy Wrap is generously gifting one lucky winner with their own comfortable wrap in choice of color.

With so many benefits to baby wearing, it's not hard to see why so many moms are doing it. Babies that are worn generally cry less, socialize earlier, and of course, it leaves mom's hands free to tend to her own chores. I fell in love with our sling and since it allows up to 35 pounds weight and multiple positions from newborn to toddler, your back will give out long before your Lucky Baby sling will. Lucky Baby offers several different fabric options including plush Minky Dot for cooler weather months, so you're bound to find a style you want. Once we grew out of our Lucky Baby sling we passed it to my sister-in-law for her new baby which speaks volumes about it's quality and durability.
