Most babies love back carries – it gives them the chance to look around (and especially to see what mom is doing)! Many babies also love having their arms out, enjoying the freedom of movement this position allows. And for most babies, back carries are the perfect opportunity for a nap…<\/p>\n

A common question is what to do when the baby falls asleep in this position and their head starts tilting backward. A few days ago, I had the perfect chance to \u201ccapture\u201d the answer!<\/p>\n
