In fact, it is the best way to soothe a baby, to help her be calm and at ease. Your baby feels your body warmth, your heartbeat, your breathing, your movement. In many ways, it&#8217;s like imitating the environment in the womb.<\/p>\n<h3>Excellent for growing babies<\/h3>\n<p>As long as you need to hold your baby, you will love wearing her. Your baby will focus her energy on learning, being happy and comfortable in your arms, while you can go on with your everyday activities. When you wear your baby, you offer her the chance to develop new skills &#8212; watching you interact with other people, seeing everything at eye level, feeling movement and building muscle tone.<\/p>\n<h3>Fantastic with older babies<\/h3>\n<p>You may wear your baby for as long as it is pleasant for both of you. It&#8217;s not a matter of how much weight your sling can take, but rather how much weight your body can comfortably carry. If you start with a newborn and wear your baby every day, as she gains weight you may be surprised at how easily you end up wearing her as a toddler &#8212; hardly realising she has reached 15 or 18&#160;kg. There are times when it may be necessary to carry a heavy toddler: at the end of a long walk, in a place that&#8217;s too crowded for little ones, or even when you both just need a cuddle. Worn correctly, a sling is surely more comfortable than carrying your child in your arms &#8212; and back carries (especially with a mei tai) can be a very comfortable choice for hours, even with a big, heavy baby.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All Asteraki slings are suitable for newborns as well as for older babies, right up to toddlerhood.Great for newborn babiesYou may use your sling from day one with your newborn baby.
