Interested in wearing your baby in a sling, but not sure how? Check out some of these instructional videos from UpMama.com. Note that the UpMama sling demonstrated in these videos is a hybrid pouch/ring sling; your sling may differ slightly, although the basic techniques demonstrated here apply to most slings. You can find more baby sling demonstration videos at MayaWrap.com. (WinonaKids is not affiliated with either of these companies.)
Winona-area residents can also sign up for a sling-wearing class through Baby Connections. Call 494-0812 for more information.
