Breast feeding and sling

[Sleepy sue]

Morning
I just wondered if anyone else has the same issue as me. I have a baby bjorn sling which I love however when ever I put lo in it he starts bobbing for food because he's facing my chest. I can feed him first but if he falls asleep then wakes in the sling he'll bob!!

Yes, Isaac does it too! He often goes crazy when I first put him in but if I walk round a bit he usually settles & falls asleep & then is fine. He does sometimes wake again & start bobbing! Not sure what can be done about it, he even does it with his daddy! Lol

You can buy slings they can feed in. I think you can in the moby wrap, don't quote me!

Love your pic btw!

Same here, I can't have him facing me in the Baby Bjorn as he does the 'piglet looking for truffles' routine, as we call it. He always faces the other way.

I used to have a Moby wrap, but invariably, he'd start to cry while I was fiddling with it, trying to put it on, was incredibly annoying, so I got rid of it.

I think of Isaac as a little piglet when he does that too! He even snorts, is that normal?!
I heard you can breast feed from a moby although I've not tried, I don't use it much either as find it too fiddly & he gets upset while I'm struggling & then I always do it too tight or too loose & so have to faff about some more!

Definite and very pig-like snorts here!

Thanks all, I was hoping there would be a way to stop it as I really wanted him to face me ( it's a bit more snuggly)
I couldn't use a moby I watched the vids on you tube and I'd never trust myself to put it on right lol

When can they face out? Xx
