All you baby wearers....

I have three carriers (greedy I know): A Tomy upright style, a ring sling and just arrived a Moby wrap. I like them all but the Moby is current favourite. Thing is, my LO seems to get agitated in all of them. No more so than she would if she was 'free' as she can be a little whingey generally! lol, but I was kind of expecting that she would be all chilled and loving the wearing thing so it's a bit disappointing cos I feel like she doesn't want to be cuddled up to me :cry: Am I being silly? Are other babies a bit resistant to being worn sometimes? I want to keep using the slings especially when we're out and about on buses or with the dog etc. but I want her to enjoy it. To be honest she even cries in the moving pram if she's in that mood so I don't think that the slings actually cause her to be fretful but they don't chill her out as much as I expected either. Any opinions please??
 
I wouldn't worry too much as long as you know she isn't being pinched by it or getting too hot. Alice is usually happy in her moby but she doesn't like the sling too much because her legs are tucked up in it. Have you tried different holds in the moby? From about 1 month Alice was trying to stand up in it so I switched her to having her legs hanging out and she liked it much better. Alice hates going in the stroller too, every time she just screams til I pick her up.

Awww Ffion and Daisy look gorgeous in their Moby's!!!!

Are they easy to put on? They look complicated? :shrug:

Missy - I couldn't get my LO to go in a sling carrier when he was a newborn so gave up for a while but he loved his Baby Bjorn carrier untikl he outgrew it :cry:

no its not difficult at all and also the wraps come with a booklet with detailed photos and instructions on how to put your baby in all the different positions

I love the look of the Moby but it just looks too complicated for me - I like things simple :blush:

What I mean is, if I need to get LO out of the car quickly and 'pop' him into the carrier rather than the whole performance of getting the pushchair out, I don't want to be standing by the car at the side of the road faffing with a wrap...iykwim?? :wacko:

I can't decide....

I like this one too but a couple of girls said they didn't like the look of it the other day... https://www.bigmamaslings.co.uk/zen-cart/patapum-baby-carrier-p-431.html

I don't think you can have LO facing out either which I want to be able to do...can you with a Moby? Mind you, not sure you can with a Hawk either??? :shrug:

Off to look again........
