Baby and I are traveling by plane soon and I need something to help me carry baby around the vast airports that will help be keep my hands free as we travel. This is just what we need!

She, being five weeks old, was going to need to eat ASAP, and I was still two blocks from home. I noticed that the way she was positioned in the faux-by wrap I was wearing put her face right against my breast. So I did what any flipping awesome second time mom living in Berkeley would do and nursed her while I walked. When I approached my door and entered the house with a key in one hand and a coffee cup in the other, diaper bag over my shoulder and baby’s mouth on my breast, I thought, “damn, I’m good.” [...] [...] This morning I found myself walking up the street, wearing my baby, when she woke up.
