Lets see you babywearing !

Not me, but DH wearing LO home from the hospital!!:

For all of these baby on back positions... How old does your baby have to be before you should attempt it? When they have sufficient head/neck/back control? Or can it be done whenever? How would you get a small baby to stay on your back whilst wrapping?

^ I know people carry newborns in the tibetan back carry.

My son has head control but I don't dare carry him on my back. I can't even manage a hip carry yet lol. I still do front wrap cross carry and simple front cross carry, not very adventurous with other wrapping techniques.

People certainly carry newborns on their back using woven wraps, but I didn't attempt a back carry until 3 months or so. Before then, it seemed way too easy to drop her. I wasn't really comfortable with back carries in a woven until 5 months when she seemed a lot sturdier, but some people are comfortable with it earlier.

I have been stalking this thread for ages, gorgeous BW pics.

I have just ordered a Ellaroo and am very excited. I have been using a connecta but my daughter doesn't like it as she can't look around.

Will no doubt be asking for help

Trying out a WCMT - and I LOVE it! I never thought I was a mei tai girl, but the conversion makes it so amazing. Thinking about buying it from my friend....just gotta scrounge up enough money!

Wow that's really nice!

A while ago I traded my lovely Indio Nixe but regretted it. But I managed to get it back

It's SO cushy and a dream to wrap with. Double hammock is SO great with this wrap. (ignore my rushed job - overtired baby was not cooperating!)

katerdid, I love that WCMT! It really suits you! Faythe, you have such lovely wraps and I'm jealous of your purple hair.

We're really loving your Night Diamonds over here. She slept all day in a double hammock (a bit low -- DH adjusted it that way) and woke up in an excellent mood.

 

[Faythe]

Thank you! It's very bright

I've actually only got 3 and that's my maximum so one in, one out.

I traded my Kokadi Nixe (mermaid scales) to get my indio back and it is never ever leaving again.

So much sleepy dust and the only thing getting him to sleep at the moment.

This was taken today, our first go with a woven wrap, I found it really comfy. Grace was unsure to begin with but soon fell asleep.

Me and Ethan in town my shoulder fabric should be more spread out and should have a twist in it but it kept undoing itself when I was carrying the changeing bag! Gah!

Babywearing at a Shambala this weekend.

 

[GreyGirl]

Please tell me it's at least a little better?! I've been getting disheartened with back carrying recently and gave rucksack another go. She felt a lot tighter against my back and couldn't lean back like before. I tucked the wrap into her trousers before putting her up as well which helped the seat stay in Any constructive tips appreciated as always, I'd like to hope I'm heading in the right direction!

 

[Faythe]

Wowee, check you out! That's fab!

 

[GreyGirl]

Wowee, check you out! That's fab!

If that was at me - thank you very much

 

[Faythe]

It was. Looks miles better (And I bet more comfy too!)

 

[GreyGirl]

It was. Looks miles better (And I bet more comfy too!)

Thank you It felt like she was cuddling my back instead of pushing against it and leaning away, much more comfy

 

[doggylover]

My first wrap in our woven I tied the 'tails' round the front today though as they were so long. Need more practice but loving it bought this cheap on casabu (sp?) now I want a colourful (shorter!) woven!!

 

[Faythe]

Yeah, when they're snuggled into your back it makes it miles more comfy that when they are able to lean back
