Do/Did you wear a/both babies?

This seems like s good way to help a little. Did you wear a LO?

Did you switch them off every once in a while, where the one that was fussy? How did you manage?

TIA

Re: Do/Did you wear a/both babies?

  • i wore my smaller twin sometimes- when i wanted to go shopping somewhere and didn't want to deal with my big Valco stroller (that would seat all 3).... so i could put DS1 into my double and wear a twin.... but couldn't do it long- always hurt my back after a short while.

     

  • Yes, I wear them all the time. Especially, when they were newborns. It was the only way I could get anything done. I figured out how to use my moby wrap to wear them both at the same time and it was a God-send. Sometims, I would wear both but more often, I would wear one of them and switch when the other one got fussy. I LOVE babywearing.

  • I mostly wore/wear one at a time. I used a Moby when they were little and an Ergo starting at 4m. Love the Ergo! There were a few times I wore one in the front in a Moby and one in the back in an Ergo, but I never tried the twin carry with the Moby.

  • When they were newborns/little, I wore them some, and it was generally one DD that was a fussier baby.  Now, I tend to wear one a lot with my Ergo.  I'm starting to put one on my back and use a single stroller or a single cart a lot more than using a double stroller.  Now it tends to be my other DD because she lighter, more likely to get into things, and she just likes it more.  I tried to put the other DD on my back today and her response was "No like it!" so that didn't fly.

  • We frequently wear one or both.  I never did get to feeling comfortable wearing them both in the wrap, but I'll do Ergos front and back when I'm alone and have all 3 kids by myself.

  • All the time.  Even still.  When we take DD#1 to school, I throw one on my back in the Ergo, and the other on my hip in a maya ring sling to walk her in.  Frees me up to carry DD#1 if she needs it, or hold her hand to walk her in.  Last week I took them to the mall for Santa pics while DD was in school and wore them both.  They are much happier being worn and it always buys me a little more time to do what I want to do.
