Mayce in his joy and joe carrier! Am I doing something wrong? He is 8 weeks and his head keeps lolling back. What an I do to stop this? X

 

[Feronia]

Woah, nice job on the tandom carry, emera35! That's awesome!

Cupcake, it might help if you tuck his head into one of the sections on the side like this picture:

Thank you Feronia! But he won't have his head under the side! Argh :/ might go to a sling library and try a few others maybe x

Gorgeous photo cupcake! I used to love my Joy and Joe wrap before Daniel got too heavy for a stretchy. I used to have to make sure it was really tight before I put Dan in otherwise he would loll out if the top rail wasn't tight enough.

Amazing photos everyone xx
Can someone help me out please, i'm due our third baby in a few weeks, and i really want a nice wrap/carrier, thing is i can't make my mind up, what would be best for a newborn (ideally able to breastfeed discreetly as i will be doing the school run) i've seen a bali breeze wrap which i love, what is better, the stretch or woven version? I've never wrapped before, only used my Boba and Ergo SSC, but my boba wasn't suitable for a newborn so i've mainly used that with my other two children once they turned 6 months.

I want something fancy, liking the girasol wraps too, i'l be walking around 3 hours a day, so i need something quite supportive and suitable from day 1! xx

 

[Feronia]

So you have a sling library/ babywearing group in your area? It's always nice to try out a few options before purchasing! I love my Girasol and would chose a woven from the beginning next time as they last from newborn to toddlerhood!

 

[cupcake0406]

Yes really close by I've never been obviously so a bit nervous! But sure will be ok for £2.50 to hire one for a while it can't be bad! Definitely think ill try a woven x

I've had the bali breeze woven version, and although it's one of the coolest (ie great in hot weather) wraps I've tried, it's also the least supportive. I would save a few more pennies and go for a girasol (diamond weave if you can swing it).

IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE!!!
We are in love with our new-to-us petrol hemp indio! I am deffo loving the size 3 shorty, my new favorite length!
The knot looks pretty big here, but that's cuz I doubled it. I really should of done a slipknot for this carry (DH rebozo), it gets a bit droopy after a while.

Aah, I wish I'd gone for a smaller one now, seeing that your toddler fits! I have a size 6 ellaroo which just seems way too long!

 

[Krippy]

Aww, newborn wrapping is the best!

So I just got some fluffy mail today - a Girasol Night Diamonds - size 4. I was thinking that my size 6 was a bit too long and I am LOVING the 4!

Where did you find your night diamonds Feronia!?! This is my ISO, in a size 5 I think. You would not need a 6 at all as you are so tiny! It looks beautiful on both of you!

 

[Feronia]

That wrap is lovely, katerdid! How are you liking the hemp?

Thanks! I am really enjoying this wrap! It's so lightweight and supportive, so it's been great for the summer. I found the night diamonds on pinkletinkbaby.com, but I think it might be out of stock now. My size 4 was the last one left (I am loving this length), but the owner has a FB group so you could ask about stock. It looks like she has some night rainbow in the size 5, which is the same as night diamond but in a twill weave. Good luck!

I think I'm stopping at 2 wraps, lol. There is no way I could ever justify more to DH!

 

[katerdid]

That wrap is lovely, katerdid! How are you liking the hemp?

Oh I love the hemp! It's so supportive and as airy as my gira. Very happy with it.


So is my boy, he's thrilled with all the "up ups" we've been doing
