Maybe a silly thought about a Moby, but....

Hope2HaveHope2Have
in Adoption

Hadley is now 2 months old but we adopted and started carrying her in her Moby at birth, I absolutely love carrying Hadley in her Moby wrap and Bjorn, just love it, and I realized today, I sit and rub her bum in it, like a pregnant woman rubs her pregnant belly... I'm "carrying" Hadley, just on the outside of me instead of inside! :o)

    Same. It was one of my favorite things about wearing him in a wrap.

    ditto :) 

    I've even been known to call pics of me wearing her in the moby "bump pics" Embarrassed

    I love that. I am jealous of all of you. DD hated being in those carriers. I tried every day for about three months after we brought her home, she was never a fan.

    I don't think that is silly at all! I've been going back and forth with the concept of "babywearing" when we adopt our LO and posts like this make me really think that this is something I should do. What a great way to bond- I think your post is so sweet!

    By the way- the pics of your daughter are absolutely beautiful! I absolutely adore the floral headbands- they are just too precious ;-)

    That is sweet.  I actually remember when I got one the first time I put Alice in it I caught my reflection in the mirror and almost choked up.  I even took my picture just like the prgnant ladies do- lol!  Too bad for me she never cared for being in there much, but I do think being able to have that kind of closeness is special and precious : )

    I just wanted to say I LOVE this thread :)  I am in the beginning stages of adoption, but strongly considering baby wearing when our little one finally arrives. Oh, and OP your little one is ADORABLE :) Love the headbands!!

    I am a hug fan of baby wearing! We did the moby for 3-4 months then moved to the Ergo. DD loves it and I adore being that close to her!

    I am another one that has thought the exact same thing! T is getting so big that he's not a real fan of the Moby now, but in the beginning we both loved it!

    I feel that way, and my baby is 6 months old!  Anna didn't like her Moby until recently, so I didn't get to carry her until now, but I love it (and so does she!)
