    Let us know how you go, hun. I looooooved my HAB for DD and used it until she was 18 mths but I never actually bf her in it. She basically never woke up while she was carried in the HAB! So there was never any need. But I'd love to know how it works for #2.

    As a HAB is just a stretch fabric wrap - it's definitely possible to BF in it, but it does take a bit of practice feeding in a wrap. The Front Cross Carry is a good carry for feeding in as bub can be popped in and out and it can be easily adjusted. I've been feeding DD (9 days old) in a woven wrap, mostly in a Front Wrap Cross Carry (FWCC) and a modified cradle carry with good success. If you google instructions for these carries there are plenty of vid tutorials on youtube, or check out thebabywearer for lots of good instructions.
