Wrap, 1 year old... cradle/nursing position way to tie?

[Aletheia]

Can anyone recommend a way to tie my really long gypsy wrap around my 1 year old who likes to fall asleep nursing in my arms? We'll be traveling starting tomorrow, and it dawns on me that this might be the best way to go about naptime. I've never been super successful at nursing him to sleep in a seated position (ergo or basic x wrapping).

Thanks!

What position is he in when nursing in arms? You could probably tie him on before you nurse him, then nurse him to sleep in the wrap.

he's across my body- i walk and rock him while nursing. i would love to be able to spare my arms. he's getting heavy!

Oh you could sooo do this with a wrap! Ok, so here's a video with a 4 mos old, but you could do this with a older kiddo to. I used to do this position when my toddlers were sick and wanted to snuggle up on me. You could also try nursing him upright in the wrap. If you happen to nurse him without a wrap, you could wrap him too after he's fallen asleep.

OMG! This is PERFECT!!! Thank you thank you. This is exactly what I want. I almost want to go wake him up to try it!!!
