Lets see you babywearing !

[fluffpuffin]

Does anyone have experience with back carries in cold/ rainy weather? How do you keep yourself and bubs warm? Or do you just front carry with coat around them? xx

You can use an extra large man's rain jacket and just put the jacket on yourself (you will look like Quasimodo) then use an umbrella! If it's super cold, then put LO in a snowsuit underneath (I use a thin rain coat, XL)

But then the jacket would be over bubs head and she wouldnt be happy xx

I was just picturing that.

Ehhh having troublefinding it.Basically the jacket goes AROUND the baby (the opening/hood is at the base of their neck).

when out in the rain i put a waterproof on me and an all in one waterproof on tom, the ergo gets wet but we stay dry... make sure they a good waterproofs for baby tho, most of the highstreet ones are pretty useless!

Tom is 22 months, I still carry him in the ergo, so comfy but I need some tips on how to get him in it when he's throwing a strop! i.e. we're on a walk, all he wants to do is run off but i have the dog pulling, i',m getting stressed and need to tie tom down but he keeps arching his back when i try to put him in and i feel like i'm going to drop him!

Any tips?

Beautiful! I love how snug newborns look in wraps.


Loving the Raincoat Ergo, too, Tulip. Definitely some smiley cheeks going on!

Check out the impromptu hip carry in an old pashmina...

OK I blame this thread.

We got drenched. Ergh.

poor you & kiddies!

argh i hate the weather at the moment, wish it would make its mind up!
i was getting off the bus the other day with frank in woven wrap, it had been lovely sunny so i didn't take a brolly but the heavens just opened it was awful if he had been in connecta i'd have put his hood up but nothing i could do so we both got soaked!

We've got caught out a few times in the changeable weather this week too.

Babywearing is so handy when you've got grumpy toddlers but you need to get on with the housework.

Freckle, that toddler does not look impressed, bless!

 

[freckleonear]

She was much more unimpressed before I put her on my back!
