Lets see you babywearing !

[katerdid]

Love your wovens Faythe!

Faythe- so jealous of your scales! When I have a baby I'll be dying to get my hands on either those or fire scales. They stand out so much.

Fluffy mail came today! I Turtles! Babe was in bed so will post action pics tomorrow!

 

[Faythe]

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.

Babywearing FSOT, Slings and Things FSOT?

Isn't it lush?

Been after chameleons for ages!

Thanks ladies

My first semi-successful back carry - ruck. I'm not convinced it's tight enough, should be be held more to me?

 

[Feronia]

It looks good! I think it could stand to be a tad tighter, but it doesn't look unsafe or anything. I find that for rucks, tightening the top rail first works wonders for helping get your baby higher and closer to your body.

 

[Faythe]

Bring top rail tighter. Will be much comfier.

Trip to Alnwick Gardens. First time wrapping in front of loads of people! DH kindly stood there looking & an old lady asked if I needed any help, bless her (Nearly asked her if she wanted to wear him instead).

First time wearing my 3 week old son in a (freshly made) woven wrap. Please be kind these were both first attempts at carries. So far I like it better than a stretchy though.

Thanks ladies - I'm working on getting it tighter

Looks fabulous counting, really lovely wrapping and comfy baby, what more could you want

I'm excited because I've sold my wrap (I only got the bluer one thinking my hubby would want to try it, but he hasn't shown any interest, he wants buckles) and I've ordered the LL Gaia in L instead of M like above - looking forward to the rainbow love!

 

[Feronia]

lindsey - nice! I love the pink, and he looks super comfy in there!

counting - Wow, that looks a heck of a lot better than my first attempt at a woven wrap on a newborn. I will not even share those pictures. I like the middle marker, too.

Does anyone have carry suggestions for nursing in a size 4? I usually do a simple FWCC and tie under the bum, but I have to tie under the legs and then it looks like it's sagging super low. It looks ridiculous in public, lol.

 

[Faythe]

kangaroo hip carry?

 

[Feronia]

kangaroo hip carry?

Thanks! I just gave it a try and it worked well! I'm horrible at doing regular kangaroo carrys since DD pushes out and I can never get the rails tight enough for the twist, but I was able to do it just fine with the hip carry.

 

[Faythe]

Yay!

Those with the baby connectas, how are the shoulder straps? I heard they can be too big for smaller moms. I am 5'3 and a size 10.

Also is the carrier actually comfy? I have a Bjorn active(yeah yeah I know) and I do like the back support on it however when he falls asleep the straps dig into his face and I hate that.

 

[Bean66]

Love my connecta. In hindsight I wish I'd got the petit straps. I'm 5.7 and size 10. Small framed.
It's comfy but make she the straps don't sit to close to the neck otherwise they can pull. It can take a little tweaking to get used to it.

 

[GreyGirl]

It arrived today - my LL Gaia (L)

[Feronia]

Oooh, that's beautiful! I'm a fan of rainbows!

 

[Faythe]

You both look so happy!
