Lets see you babywearing !

[Dopeyjopey]

Can anyone give me some advice... I oyt moo in his mei tai today fir the first time and he just hangs/leans back?
He doesnt look very comfty?
xx

(Looking good ladies)

Maybe the shoulder straps need to be a liitle tighter. I also cross the straps round his back which keep him more upright

Oh veganmum2be, you are pro at this already!!! I still struggle with some of my slings, LOL!!! Your baby loves his 2nd womb!

i couldn't have done it without the youtube 'how to' videos!

looking good with the baby in the sling
I would keep the Mei Tai for when he's older

i thought about keeping it, as it may fit different then...but i've overspent wayyy to much this month so need the pennies and i can always buy another one day!

looking great, cant wait for my woven sling gonna order it today to stop DH spending the money on takeout lol

i haven't had chance to try mine yet, loved the ring sling too much to bother changing then when i wanted to he was being a grump and not happy, so not the best time to practice...are you getting the black and white flowers too? its lovely even better than the pics!x

 

[lynnikins]

no im getting a blue one with a VHC panel on it

 

[Jetters]

Veganmum it looks great! But i'd keep the mei tei... those ringslings start to cane your back when they get a bit bigger and that's when mei tei's really come into their own!

edit: just saw your post, fair enough about buying another one later


woweeeeee Kate doesn't Lucas look like you!!!

 

[xerinx]

Awww kate that came well quick!!

And you got it sussed already!

He looks like such a grump but i look terrible in the ones where he's smiling

Going to try out my Hopp that i got today and will post pics if i do a decent job of it!

^ great piccies

That ringsling looks gorgeous veganmum! Never tried one but I am curious

Cute pics Kate!

Nervouspains- sounds like he needs bouncing down more maybe....hold the shoulder straps upwards and sort of jump/wiggle about a bit, that way he should end seated more deeply.

Lynnikins- VHC wrap sounds awesome, can't wait to see it!

Dopeyjopey- Lovely pics, you're so pretty! I always have the same problem with us never looking good in the same pic Which Hopp did you get?

 

[Dopeyjopey]

Aw, thanks AFC makes me feel better about posting a photo of me with no makeup on!

It's the Goa, a nice, light cotton so it'll be good in summer. I can just about swing A round onto my back safely but can't manage to get a good pouch so just front carries until i get the hang of it! Just tried to put him in but he's grumpy hope it isn't because it's too girly for him!

Got this a couple of days ago in a trade, it's a Kleinsmekker...I had another KS but the colours reeeeally didn't suit me but it was so comfy....this one is perfect for us though

[still can't take a pic of my own back though!]

And got this recently, Nati Green Dandelions....think this will be staying a long time, I really like it

And that's with no makeup as well?! I'm so jealous!

Oooh I've not seen that one before! I've only just started back wraps, I practiced over my Connecta to begin with until I got to grips with where everything needed to go, it really helped
Haha....Finley gets put in pink flowery ones too

 

[nervouspains]

Thanks ladies, il take a pic of it tomorrow so you can see xx

 

[Dopeyjopey]

Oh, the dandelions is beautiful. Saw one FS on another forum but couldn't get the pennies. I feel like i'm missing something from my (tiny) stash of slings. It makes me feel bad!
