Lets see you babywearing !

[Faerie]

Here's Sofia on my back, didn't realise how low down she was as I put her in it at ridiculous-AM, she doesn't seem to mind though!

not sure if this will work (i have no faith in my computer abilities)
but this is violet in her peanut shell sling, which i love but i really want to get a mei tai carrier too..

 

[spacecadet]

Babywearing in winter I always get lots of comments when I wear her, from "ohhh, so cute!" to "where is she in there?" LOL

I love snuggling with my bug in the winter

[Mark&Annie]

[thelilbump]

adorable carriers ladies, all your Lo's look all snug and warm!

 

[Vici]

Love this thread, you and your LOs all look FAB

 

[Missy]

spacecadet, are you still carrying your LO in the peanut shell at 11 months? I really like that sling but thought that Saf might be too big for it now or outgrow it quickly!?

Well I had to stop doing the kangeroo position (facing forward) when she got to about 7 months cos she was too big, I still carry her in it on my hip comfortably but she is getting more difficult to put in it feet first now she's bigger, it's a lively sling though and I'm gunna keep it for my next baby and lend it a friend in the meanwhile,
I want a babyhawk mei tai now...

Yay I have been trying to get the hang of back carries for ages, as Freya much prefers it, up to now I have only been able to do it when someone else puts her on my back! With some youtube help I finally did it this morning:

I used this video first but it didn't help as I have to roll the bottom so she can see over :

Then I managed it with this one fine, but Freya wriggles a hell of a lot more than that baby! It took me quite a while!:

Will have to get practising!

 

[Mark&Annie]

Very cool! She looks well snug Did you do it over a bed incase she went over the top?!!

 

[kirsten1985]

Yeah!

 

[Missy]

I just got a mei tai so I'm def going to try the back carry soon.

Finally getting around to sharing some of our photos now that we have our xmas BH

And our homemade MT

Emma is at a weird size where she is really too big for a newborn hold in the MTs but not flexible enough to straddle us either. The store where my hubby bought us the BH suggested letting her legs dangle out (with a hand for support) in the meantime, but I can't wait til I can put her on my back.

Great pics of Emma in her carriers!

Leyla doesn't like froggy position anymore but is still a bit small for having her legs out of the Babyhawk so I googled and somebody suggested tying a ribbon around it to make the body of the carrier smaller. I tried it and it worked - I just narrowed the bit at the bottom so it's a bit wider than her bum. I read that as long as their legs are hanging down below their bum height, it's fine like that. After experimenting with ribbon, I actually sewed the bottom of it smaller but it worked just as either way. It means I don't have to hold her bum
