Lets see you babywearing !

[BabyMaybe917]

I just brought home my preemie and she's a bit small for the moby still but I had to try it. I can't wait to wear her. I was excited about it while I was pregnant and then she came 14 weeks early! I'm going to be baby wearing like crazy to make up for lost time.

Excuse the collage it's what I have picture wise of my moby on my phone.

Aww congratulations! Welcome home Ellie I'm sure she'll be fine in the moby, best place for her surely? Xx

 

[BabyMaybe917]

I was worried because they are for 8 lbs and up. She's not even 6 lbs yet.

Maybe post on the main board for advice from the BW consultants but we use kangaroo care for preemies so I assume the minimum weight is because they have to put one on the packaging.

She's gorgeous, you must be so relieved to have her home

Wow 14 weeks early! She looks like shes doing great. Congratulations on bringing her home.

I second what Tulip said - I'm pretty sure the Moby will be fine for wearing her in. Wraps dont really have a minimum weight, and 6lbs is a normal newborn size and many people use them from day dot. Ive known people to use them for kangaroo care with preemie multiples in hospitals too. But its your call what you're comfortable with

I just want to say, she is GORGEOUS!
It may just be hormones, but I always get teary eyed when I see preemie's at home. They're so strong, and so are their parents, and I just have such admiration for you (and other preemie parents), and also the little babes themselves.
She looks so very sweet.

Seeing all these teeny babies is making me excited for December!

Love all the new pictures.

Ah I remember reading through this thread ages ago before I even got pregnant! Here's us with the ring sling when he was way smaller, a loaner wrap from my local lending library (waiting on my first wrap), and the horribly uncomfortable ergo

I'm excited by all the squishies too! My carrying this summer is going to be a bit different to lugging this lump about!

Newborn stash is out of control, I have Ruby Hemp Indio on the way and not sure it'll fit in the wrap drawer...

First time carrying my 3 month old on my back. He fell asleep shortly after these pictures were taken, so I guess he was comfy!

Nice job Jessica! That looks great!

Also, how do you make the pics larger. I can only upload thumbnails.
