Babywearing. Who knew it could be so complicated?
You’re pregnant. You receive a baby carrier for your shower or pick one up at a market. You imagine strolling in the sunshine, coffee in hand, baby blissfully tucked away. Silent. Sleeping. Safe.
Then you have the baby. And — why didn’t anyone tell you?? — the carrier takes a LOT of practice. And there are a LOT of options. ?♀️
-
Is it fitting right?
-
Should they face in or out?
-
Which carriers are safe for squats and hikes?
-
Will you need a different carrier when baby hits the toddler stage?
-
Should the carrier go inside our outside your jacket?
-
Can a carrier be too hot in the summer?
