Lets see you babywearing !

[Toms Mummy]

I love how high up he is on your back Faythe! I can't wait to use a woven with my next baby. I never did with Tom

 

[Faythe]

Thank you lovely!

Awww bless you. You'll probably find Tom will want a couple of carries when he sees you carrying your squishy. Have you got a nice wrap?

 

[Toms Mummy]

Tom still gets carried in the ergo sometimes I don't think he'll ever grow out of it!

I've not got a woven (yet!) I've been looking at the storche, didymos and ellaroo. Do you have any recommendations?

I've not had a Storch, but heard good things, I have only 2 wraps at the moment and one is a didymos, I love it

I used to own an ellaroo and sold it because it wasn't for me. They are very thin and quite narrow, so found it hard to get a good seat in it and it dug in a bit!

(I know your question wasn't aimed at me lol!!).

Any good learning to backwrap links? Also how old do they have to be?

 

[Faythe]

Storch are OK but I found it a little too diggy for my liking. Love Didymos, Kokadi and Oscha.

Girasol are very pretty but I didn't like how thin they were and for me they weren't very supportive. But every mama is different

Try a secure high backcarry for littlies

AWWWWWW How sweet!!!

My LO would LOVE a nature walk (as would I)...she now grabs leaves etc as we walk!!

Awwww, super cute pic, Indifference!

I love hearing the wrap suggestions, too. I've been eyeing the pretty Kokadis but I don't think DH will be happy with the idea of another wrap for a while. I personally love my Natibaby though -- it's supportive and comfortable. Here's a picture from our walk today. I think I'm getting the back carries down now and can do them fairly quickly without having to stand over the bed!

Gorgeous! I would recommend tying under bum to avoid putting pressure on his spine.

It's a beautiful design

Yes tie under bum or behind your back. Baby's spine should never be held straight like that but allowed to curve

 

[GreyGirl]

Did my first outside back carry with the mei tei today. Used the method of getting her up of straps under her armpits and then lifting on my back then tying waist. Much easier than trying to hold a wriggling baby on my back - glad I found that youtube video! Getting her off without help is really hard though, any tips?

How does her position look?

She fell asleep almost instantly after fussing in the pram, she obviously wanted to sleep on me, awww I really enjoyed it except that I relied on my friend to keep an eye on her, so don't feel capable of back-wearing when alone

 

[Krippy]

I just wiggle and slide my babe down and under my arm and around to the front if that makes any sense at all! lol

I must have really short/unflexible arms because I know what you mean and I've seen it on the videos...when I try it I feel like I can't reach round to her properly and that if she wiggles she'll fall

 

[Faythe]

needs to be a little higher

 

[GreyGirl]

needs to be a little higher

Thank you, I'll do that next time
