FAQ

How long can I carry my baby in the wrap?

You can carry your baby in the wrap for as long as both you and your baby are comfortable. However, it’s important to take breaks and regularly check your baby’s position and comfort. Always ensure the baby is not too hot and that their airways are clear.

Can I breastfeed while using the wrap?

Yes, you can breastfeed while using the wrap. Adjust the wrap to lower your baby to a comfortable breastfeeding position. Always ensure your baby’s nose and mouth are clear to breathe easily. After feeding, reposition the baby back to an upright and secure position.

What should I do if my baby feels too warm?

If your baby feels too warm, remove the wrap and cool them down. Dress your baby in lighter clothing when using the wrap, especially in warmer weather. Ensure proper airflow around your baby and avoid using the wrap in extremely hot conditions.

How do I wash and care for the wrap?

Machine wash your wrap in cold water on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry to prevent shrinkage and iron on low if needed. Proper care will maintain the quality and longevity of your wrap.

How can I tell if the wrap is too tight or too loose?

The wrap should be snug enough to hold your baby securely against your body without any slack, but not so tight that it’s uncomfortable for you or your baby. You should be able to slip a hand inside the wrap to check your baby’s position and adjust if necessary.

Can I use the wrap if I have back problems?

If you have back problems, it’s best to consult with a healthcare professional before using the wrap. When using the wrap, ensure it is tied properly to distribute your baby’s weight evenly, which can help minimize strain on your back.
