I took my first long trip to the grocery store myself to buy supplies for Christmas. I decided to wear DS in a borrowed Bjorn I have (I'm getting an Ergo for Christmas and plan to use that in the future). DS did great and fell asleep soon after I starting shopping. I was just so proud since this was my first solo trip where I HAD to get things done.
I got a lot of stares. But one lady looked at me and smiled and said "That's the perfect place for baby." It made me feel so good!
Re: AW: BW at grocery store
I wore DD in Giant when she was about 6 weeks old. I got a lot of stares too...and one lady said that she looked uncomfortable. I wasn't quite sure how a sleeping baby can look uncomfortable...but whatever. I LOVE BWing for grocery trips. It's so much easier than trying to balance the infant seat on or in the cart. And I totally think it is safer too.
