Good eye! Yep, it is, I think it's one of my favorite back carries for a shorty.

My son in our favorite carrier, the ergo.

*oh, and I adjusted it slightly after the picture was taken, so the carrier was higher up *

my first attempt babywearing x

Lovely pics! I can't wait to try out my ellaroo! I've also just bought a stokke mycarrier. Has anyone got any experience with these? I'm not that fussed about using it as a back carrier. I just liked it as it was similar to a bjorn (which my OH liked last time) but it puts baby's legs in the better froggy position!

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!

Are you in any Facebook babywearing pages? You could do an ISO (in search of) post.

Try slings and things - FSOT and advice

Thanks, she actually wiggles herself to that position, I think shes too old to be in the front :/ but cant get her onto my back without help.

Is this a stretchy wrap? (As far as I know, Moby only makes stretchy wraps, but I could be wrong!) If so, I don't think you're supposed to use them on the back anyway. If you get a woven wrap you may have an easier time getting her on your back or positioning the passes to prevent the leg straightening. I love the purple though!

 

[Faythe]

You should NEVER use a stretchy on your back. And in all honesty, at her age she is probably too big for it. I moved onto a woven at 4 months.

Yeah its a moby wrap, I actually won it in a giveaway. I have thought about buying a woven wrap though as I think she'd be happier on my back, but im not very good with it :/

Can you pop to a sling library. You may get on with a mei tai or SSC. Or someone can help you with woven back carries.

I found the Moby uncomfy with my, admittedly large, 4mth old.

 

[Feronia]

I think back carries take a LOT of practice for just about everyone. I started doing back carries at 3 months in a woven and practised over the bed and had my husband spotting at first. It took another 3 months of me practising every day to get really comfortable doing it! I second seeing if there's a local sling library or babywearing group who could help you out and show you some options.

 

[Faythe]

Bigger babies are much easier to wrap on your back. Just takes practice and using a large mirror helps alot.

I love your blue and brown iguana wrap! I probably sound like a stalker now, but I think I saw you post pictures of that wrap on one of the FB Babywearing groups -- possibly Babywearing 102? I don't remember, but I was admiring it.
