The temperature is rising and the sun is shining,
warranting a winning combination for time with the family outdoors! If you have a little one, it is a perfect opportunity
to soak up the benefits of the sun while also enjoying bonding time by wearing
your baby in a wrap. Below are just five
of the many benefits to wearing your baby:
1. Babies get used to moving with the mother
during pregnancy. Therefore, moving
around with the mom or dad in a wrap is calming and can have a soothing effect.
2. The
stimulation received while in a wrap helps babies breathe and grow more
efficiently. This connection can be
attributed to the fact that more contact between mother and baby can help
establish and maintain a good breastfeeding relationship.
3. Being
worn in a wrap enhances brain development as babies are exposed to a myriad of
sounds and experiences. Since the baby
is positioned closer to eye level, he/she will feel included in conversations
and interactions, which can boost speech development.
4. Baby
wearing frees mom or dad’s hands to get other things accomplished. Perhaps you need to push a stroller with your
other child, wash dishes or prepare veggies for dinner…You can! It’s that simple.
5. Baby
wearing puts your heart near the babies heart.
This is very calming for the baby who heard mommies heart beat for 9
months before meeting her.
