The band tuttalavita: parte I

& Nbsp;

imageThe first time I took Lanna in the band seemed to have a chick lying on the chest: the felt relaxed and completely abandoned, but, at the same time, safe, well supported because the sling. The most difficult thing is to put the child in the band, but it is a psychological difficulty as when it has to do with any change… It 'very long, and this is something that scares. The first time - but also the second and third! - Think: and now? At first my husband was giving me a hand, but now with a little 'practice knotted band alone without any help. The first seven months of life of my child and I was in Italy where I lived, in the Province of Mantua, nobody takes the kids in the band and at the park or along the path met prams and strollers.

imageThey looked at me with amazement and a bit 'of surprise and sometimes some old women let themselves go to comments such as "but it is not uncomfortable? “YOUR 'A WARM!!!"And my favorite" poor thing ... look where he put it!”. The comment about the heat but in the end it affected me - eh mums “dapocotempomamme” you always leave circumvent while they should have more confidence in themselves! - And during the summer I put the Didymos and I bought the From Coast in one of the most innovative children's shops in Mantova, Pisoli and Pannoli. It 'an Italian product and retains those essential requirements of the manufacture and quality of materials. I've always used: we visited Rome, glaciers in the high mountains, We went shopping in Milan and long walks by the sea.

imageI took all sorts of means: bus, the train, l’aereo, the meter, la Barca, the cable car and my baby could sleep peacefully even in the midst of confusion! The From Coast is much easier to wear but when Lanna has exceeded 5 kg are returned to use Didymos: the special structure supports your back so that you do not feel pain, even after a whole day walking around and despite the weight gain (with the Didymos you can bring a child up to 15 kg in pesos!) .
I consider the band a tool that allows me to bring Lanna in a way that is in my comfort zone. The hands free is a balm to the spirit: do the shopping, shopping and breakfast bar. It 's true that if your child understands that it is in the sling so that the mother can do other, how to finish cleaning such, may refuse to stay there. Children are very sensitive, They soon learn how to stay in the relationship and if you are outside of our attention and care - especially if the goal is to spend time together! - Do not wait a minute to let us note! I do not believe those who say "with the band creates a unique bond and then the little girl wants to be alone in his mother's arms". I think the band is a tool that, in addition to being very practical, consolidates and enriches the mother-child relationship.

imageThe first few weeks, the children are very young, need security and closeness because they are very afraid and easily frightened. Pediatricians and obstetricians recommend it to be close to them, embrace them and lull them. The band allows them to adapt to the environment in a phased manner, with an ear turned to the heart of the mother and the other to the outside world. The kids in the band calm down and this sense of tranquility is internalized and carried within himself. In this way, it will reinforce the foundation for self-esteem and self-confidence, fundamental to the development of cognitive and personality. When Lanna understands that it is time to enter the wing flaps its legs fast, happy shakes my arms around his neck and will not move until it's close in the sling. He understood that with mom or dad is going to go somewhere, and that happen to see something wonderful: The Coliseum, Milan Cathedral, il mare, glaciers and waterfalls in the mountains, but also new people to observe.
