Using your Ergobaby Embrace as a support for breastfeeding - tutorial.

Here I demonstrate how to use your Ergobaby Embrace as a support for Breastfeeding or Chestfeeding.  It is worth saying that this is not a hands free position - and this is intentional - it is not possible or at least not easy to SAFELY breastfeed a baby under 6 months hands free in any sling or carrier.  Breast or chestfeeding is not a hands free nor a brain free activity until baby is strong enough to support their own head and torso and physically capable of latching and unlatching completely unaided.  Until that point it is crucial for parent to provide them support and their full attention and awareness while feeding.  However, slings can still be used as a support - effectively as a portable breastfeeding pillow.  Here is how to do it for the Ergobaby Embrace, although i practise this same method will work for any soft structured buckled carrier that has the ability to cross the straps.
