Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Forward facing in moby?

I forget if this is good for the baby or not. Can someone remind me if I can/ should do a forward hold with my moby d?

Thanks

    How old is he?  You can make your baby's legs crisscrossed in front.  Just make sure he's not sitting on his feet. The end result will look like the following, but I'd pre-tie THEN put him in.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bu5KJjvzAw

    Your baby might be getting a bit big for a stretchy wrap, and this carry may not give you the support you'd like.  It could get uncomfortable pretty fast.  

    Ideally, you'd hold a baby in a carrier the same way you would hold him in-arms--facing you.

    Ccharm... every.......single....time I see a post about slings/carriers I scroll down to see your opinions... you're my "carrier queen" when it comes to advice. If you don't post on one, I wonder, well... how will we know if ccharm isn't here? :o)  Thanks for all the advice!

  • Thanks!  She is just about 6 months old. I appreciate the advice and video.

    Thanks! I love the water pics, I took about 10 that night... as SOON as she saw the water turn on, she would stick her tongue out and start flipping it up and down like a puppy, it was priceless. The look of satisfaction on her face when I actually let her stick her face to the water was amazing.

    And seriously, I do appreciate all the carrier help you offer and have taken lots of your advice and tried to implement it. I love wearing Hadley and do so daily (well, almost every day). Thanks again!
