LO gets fussy in sling after eating

Hi

My DD gets really fussy if I put her in a sling after feeding her. Is she just fussing, or is being in a sling after eating bad? If I put her in a bouncer or her bassinet she's fine. Thanks!

What position are you using? If you aren't already, I'd use a legs out tummy to tummy position as that's least likely to cause tummy upset after eating (in fact, it usually helps withit) It could be she's getting a little pressure on her tummy that's not letting her get gas out.

Usually the cradle way. She doesn't have any issues with it besides after eating. I'll try that later and see how it works.

My guess is that the upright tummy to tummy position will solve the problem. The cradle position scrunches their tummies and many babies don't care for it.

The tummy to tummy totally worked for us, thank you so much.

Yay! Glad to hear it ;-)
