While it may not be completely hands-free, breastfeeding in a stretchy baby wrap or sling offers a level of convenience that can be a game-changer for busy parents on the go. Remember, it's just one tool in your feeding journey, and whether it becomes your go-to method or a handy occasional option, it's all about finding what works best for you and your baby. One crucial point to remember is that you should never let your baby fall asleep in this position. Their airways could be compromised, so it's essential to reposition them upright in the sling after feeding, no matter how tempting it is to leave them snoozing. You then pop your baby into the cross of fabric made by the sling on your front, and lastly tie the support band around you both.

Smaller babies may be comfortably carried in Izmi Carrier beyond 12 months. And if you have a taller/heavier baby, you may want to size up to an Izmi Toddler Carrier sooner, from around 7 months. Jessica Molyneux spence says: I would choose the Izmi baby wrap over others because the material is really good quality and supportive. Even for older babies, it still keeps them in place and doesn't stretch which would resulting in them sinking down. This means I don't need to keep taking baby out to readjust, which I have had to do with other brands. I can put it on in the morning and it will still be fine when I've finished wearing it for the day. Emily Hentley says: I would choose this as it’s so comfy and comes in a great choice of colours. The colours are unisex so would suit a second baby and the wrap would definitely do more than one baby it seems really well made and has lasted well for multiple uses. Over a structured carrier I would choose this due to the connection you get with baby carrying them close. What changes would you make to this product? On a budget and deciding between and baby wrap and a carrier? Well, you don’t have to, thanks to the great value Izmi Essential Bundle. If you’re in the market for two carriers that will do a similar job to the TwinGo, using two MiniMonkey Mini Slings, two Integra baby carriersor two Izmi baby carrierscan work particularly well.It will depend a lot on your anatomy and how you fit together. So depending on the length of your torso, the size of your breasts, and the position of your nipples, all sorts of things will vary. When developing Izmi, they took all the awesome benefits, comfort and infinite adjustability of traditional Woven Wraps (used by millions of parents all over the world and throughout history) and slowly distilled them into the smallest, easiest to use carrier product that we could create. Over 8 years, developers have made and tried out literally hundreds of sling and carrier test samples, and we think the results show in the finished products. TOP TIP: Most baby wraps have an upper weight limit of around 10-12kg (22-28lbs). But once your baby is 4 – 5 months old, most families will find a more structured baby carrier much more supportive, especially for longer walks. A sling should always mimic how you carry your baby in your arms: snug and high up on your chest so they’re close enough to kiss.

Apart from the body panel size, Izmi Baby and Toddler Carriers are almost identical in fit and style. But we have added a couple of extra features to our Toddler Carriers: Always seek advice from your medical practitioner if your babies have health considerations, and seek guidance on babywearing safety from an experienced babywearing consultant if you would like help carrying two babies. You can also book a video consultation with us, wherever you are in the world, for one-to-one support and guidance from our expert team.

Don’t be put off by the generous size of the fabric wrap; with a bit of practice, they really are easy to use. One of their best features is the ability to pre-tie them around you, so you can simply pop your babies in and out, whether you’re at home or getting in and out of the car. With minimal padding on the shoulders and none at all on the waistband, this combination offers a less bulky (and sweaty) ride than most double-up alternatives.
