Lets see you babywearing !

[cheese lover]

I've mostly seen people with Ergo's and a stretchy wrap but no ring slings and no wovens.

I saw a lady with a ring sling in Ikea a couple of months ago, someone with a Close carrier at Peppa Pig World last week and at the Bristol Harbour Festival last weekend a mum came over and started saying how nice it was to see a dad babywearing (he had Ollie in the Boba) and how she just uses a scarf to sit her toddler in for quick pick ups.

Mostly people just do a double take, especially if I have him in the woven. When we had a trip to the local farm, I overheard a nan saying to her friend "is that one of those scarf things X wants?"

I've seen loads of people with pouch slings and bjorns. The only people with sscs and wovens I've run into have been in our baby wearing group. Before i'd met any of the members in person I got so excited to see a lady in the supermarket with a baby in a wrap that I got over my extreme shyness to chat to her.

The only baby wearer iv spotted have been pepole I allready know

Same here until recently, more recently i've seen an increase in the number of stretchy wraps! I think because john lewis and TK Max are selling them now as well as (i think) the odd mothercare.... and the few people i've managed to convert over facebook

So is anyone waiting on anything arriving!?!?!? My wrap conversion (hoernum fish) is in line to be stitched soon by wendy at Softai - cannot wait!!!! Im also waiting on a double rainbow red weft, i actually sold my northern lights for it :O

There are sooo many ergo wearers around me!........ And mobys (when they're newborns)

first go with my new victoria slinglady wrap, was rather nervous about trying a wrap as only used ergo before hand, seemed easy enough for front carry & he seemed really happy (plus my hubs even had a go too) now to suss back carry out though

 

[michyk84]

no idea what I've done to make it sideways

Aww gorgeous is that an O&A xgem27x ?!?

 

[katerdid]

Gorg Gem!! (also, I lurve your pants!)

I rarely see babywearer's round here apart from at my baby wearing group and members. I have seen a few moby's and several crotch dangler's (infintino's are sold at a local grocery/homestuff/clothing store gag!)

I kinda stole a wrap of my cousin today, well more forced her to lend it to me. She's not sure if she wants to sell it so im loaning it on a basis that if she misses it then she can get it back, if not i can buy it from her. I love it! lolhttps://i930.photobucket.com/albums/ad148/lozzy22minx/549678_10152018474235495_1750636949_n.jpg

An ergo may look boring but they are fab!!.... I'm still carrying my nearly 3 year old in ours. There's no way I could still carry him in a wrap

I don't have an Ergo, but I am increasingly using my dull, plain Boba 3G more than any of my pretty carriers. I really should make more effort with the others but the Boba is just so easy!

Get some decoration on it then pimp that boba! hehehe x

 

[Snuffy]

I'd love to but my boring sod of a hubby chose it as the one he would use. He would not be swayed by Tweet or Soho - not him. Meh.

I've been wrapping heaps lately! But never have anyone to take my picture (and my camera is a currently out of commission Xoom, so not exactly ideal for self portraits). Wanted to get a picture of my new wrap (Didymos cherry blossoms) today as I tried a new back carry but it will have to wait. *sigh*

That's it, I am saving up and buying myself a didy...just won't tell dh how much they are!!

 

[Snuffy]

I really want a didy. It will have to wait until I am back at work though, and selling my storch is part of the deal.
