Hello all,
I have just got my fab close caboo for my seven week old. She's about twelve pounds now and long and I am big breasted. Ideally I would like to be able to feed her in the sling whilst out and about to save taking it off and on.
What are your top tips on doing this?
Btw the sling came without instructions so I only know the main position at the moment!

Never figured out he to do that, but hopefully this will bump for you Smile

Is there a sling group in your area? They might be able to help with the practicalities.

In the upright position you could try just loosening the rings and sliding her down to boob height - sit with her straddling your leg and lean back a little, you might have to support her head.

The Close instructions suggest a cradle hold for breastfeeding here - www.hunnybums.com/files/pdf-guides/Caboo_English.pdf

Just remember that when breastfeeding you still need to follow the normal sling safety rules - so keeping the baby's face in sight at all times, checking airways are clear etc.
