[ozmidwifery] using a baby sling after C-section

[Päivi Laukkanen]

Hi,   I was asked by a woman if she can wear a babysling two weeks after her c-section. She was told not to carry anything hevier, than the child for six weeks and has asked me since we sold the hug-a-bub baby sling for her earlier. Before I answer her, I thought I'd ask you midwives first. To me it would make sense to carry the baby in a sling, but since I don't know too much about surgery, don't want to give wrong advise.   Päivi Childbirth educator Finland
