This position is ideal for carrying a new-
born baby and for hands free breastfeed-
ing. Some babies may feel lost in the fab-
ric and will prefer the upright position of
the Heart-to-Heart.
NOTE:
When beginning,
leave some distance
between the baby’s
head and the rings,
so there is enough
space to adjust his
position once the
fabric is tightened,
and his head is not
stuck in the corner of
the hamac.
See page 8 to begin.
