How to use a baby wrap

Curious about how to use a baby wrap carrier?
It's simple! and once you get the hang of it, you and baby will love going places with the wrap.
The advantages of attachment parenting are many and using a wrap is very easy.

Our friends at Sleepy WrapTM have put together this nifty "Tying Methods" guide to help you get started.

BASIC TYING METHOD









1. Unfold the wrap and find the Sleepy WrapTM logo at the center. Place the logo around your waist and wrap around your back.















2. Cross the two pieces behind your back and bring each side up and over your shoulders to the front. Try to keep the material flat so it doesn’t twist.















3. Tuck both pieces underneath the section with the logo.
















4. Pull them both down. The part with the label will rise up to your chest and should be adjusted so that it fits you snug and literally clings to your body. You are almost there.














5. Cross the pieces and bring the fabric around your waist behind your back. Make sure that the pieces cross each other high on your chest area (your sternum is a good reference point). There is no need to leave extra space for your baby.
















6. Cross the wrap and if there is enough fabric bring it back to the front. If not, you can tie a knot here.
















7. You may tie a double knot here, or if there is enough fabric tie the double knot on your back.
