Why should I carry my baby?
Great for premature babies
Studies have shown that premature babies benefit greatly from baby wearing baby in a baby sling, wrap or soft structured carrier and a practise called kangaroo care. Kangaroo care involves a naked or nappy clad baby being held on the bare chest of the mother. The warmth, regular breathing, heart rate of the mother and frequent feeding helps to regulate the baby’s breathing, heart rate, body temperature and weight gain.
