here is me in sunny spain 3 weeks ago using my syabella

I will have to take a photo to add soon. I was only wearing DS in the house until I was used to wearing him a bit more and yesterday I used my mei tai round the shops. I did see someone using a more traditional carrier with a bigger baby too but people seemed to be giving me funny looks like I was mad!

Also, can I ask a quick babywearing question...? My son grumbles a bit (close to how his snoring sounds but not quite) when I first put him in the mei tai and then settles to sleep, does that sound like he doesn't like it?

Here's me wearing Flora in my close baby carrier, 1st one at about 2 weeks old, second one about 8 weeks. She has grown so much! (there's a muslin in front of her mouth because she was puking a lot that day).

OmiOmen, I'm sure the expert wearers will know better than me, but Flora always protests at going into the sling for a minute or two then suddenly she is very happy, and it gets easier every time. Maybe its a shock to them when they're little, but anyway I don't think it means he doesn't like it.

This is the only carrier Carmen likes to be carried in... but I feel like I'd be crazy to wear it in public!! Not sure I'm brave enough

Gabriella does the same most of the time, but to be honest she spends half her life grunting at everything so I think she just likes the sound of her own voice! I tend to think that it's just an "I'm getting comfy" noise, rather than a "get me out of this" noise as the pitch is a lot higher when she doesn't like something!

I get the same "are you mad?!" looks when I babywear in my home town, I have seen noone else at all babywearing, ever, but I don't care! She's happy, cosy & comfy, and it is so convenient for me. It cuts a lot of time off my trips to the supermarket if I babywear (Plus I get to smell her head and get all of that wonderful tiny baby snuggling all day long she's only 9.5lbs at 7 weeks old)

The only comments I've had are about how cute & cosy she looks and the "awww"s with big smiles come just as often as the "are you mad?!" looks!

My in-laws don't agree with my babywearing, but yesterday I had my SIL tell me that informing teenagers about the benefits of breastfeeding was tantamount to encouraging teen pregnancy so you can imagine how much attention I pay to their opinions!

Daddy loves the baby wearing so cute!

it's made from a lana wrap by Kerry at ocah She releases custom slots every couple of weeks or so but they can be tricky to get hold of. If you weren't fussed about a custom, there's a lovely one at a great price up for sale on natural mamas atm. I have used mine with a newborn with his legs froggied inside, you just need to make sure it's adjusted correctly to keep their back straight and airways nice and open

I LOVE slings! And i love daddys baby-wearing it is beyond cute!
Definitely going to invest in one, i've heard they are good for a bit of sly breastfeeding too if out in public? Anyone tried this?
