Lets see you babywearing !

[surprisemummy]

ooh thanks for the quick replys. will have a look into the wraps. ive never even considered babywearing so i dont have a clue. but i go out a lot and my LOs not keen on sitting down for long in the buggy and hes nowhere near walking yet. are the wraps ok for 1 yr olds ? what age do they typically go up to? im just thinking if he doesnt like being stuck in his pram then he might not like being stuck on me. hes very nosey and loves to look around lol x

My 14 month old is exactly the same, he's so nosey! they can see more in a wrap, as they are at our height, and generally love it, as they are close to mummy!

 

[surprisemummy]

ahh sounds quite good then! i just had a look at the wraps they look sooo confusing lol.

 

[JellyBeann]

have a look on youtube, hundereds of tutorials, I find rucksack carries are the easiest!

 

[Lliena]

Only confusing the first time and there are tons of vids on you tube to help! Also there will be a sling meet near you you can go to and have a play
A one year old is young there are ladies on Natural mamas forum who carry their 3/4 yr olds still

 

[surprisemummy]

thanks jellybean ill have a look!

wow lliena 4 yr olds i was just thinking that my Los a bit old to start carrying him. would have been nice when he was younger but id never heard of anything like this untill recently and i loved my pram lol x

 

[aliss]

hi can i ask all you ladies here that babywear if theres such a thing as a sling/carrier for a toddler out there thats good for your back? just asking on the off chance as my 1 yr old hates his pram now and i end up carrying him when were out. hes soo heavy and ive got a dodgy back and its not helping. my mums friend gave me a hippychick hip seat thing and it was good but i still had to support him with my arms so they got sore aswell lol

If you see my pic above on this last page, Alex fits just great in an ergo. He's 27lbs 2 weeks ago. Same size as a toddler

 

[wannabewillow]

Didnt think to get Ergo shots, there were two of us with one each aswell

Doh! And I had my camera!

Suppose it gives us an excuse to meet up again! x

I'm after a wrap as well, because as much as I love my Connecta, I can't carry Harry very far in it as my back and hips still aren't brilliant after having SPD It's fine for round the house though, but I was seriously hobbling when I tried a longish walk!

 

[JellyBeann]

I just sold mine on ebay!

 

[Eala]

I loved my Moby wrap when LO was smaller... I wasn't so great at it when she got wriggly My Papoozle was a good compromise, but we both seem to get on better with a Mei-Tai style.

Ooooh the Ellaroo looks gorgeous! Is it comfy? I'm gutted I never got one now, tempted to sell my rainbow striped wrap for funds, cos it's soooo pretty!

It's comfy yeh but wouldn't be for much longer with my 20lb lump I don't think So I bought it off the lady that had brought it along and was selling it cheap, for a future squishy...now that's forward planning

Aww I probably won't then, Lucas is a heff It's soooo beautiful though I could buy one just to look at it
