Can we do a baby wearing picture thread?

Missy0483 · August 2014

I have a knock off Ergo and am looking at other options because I can't get mine to feel comfortable no matter how I adjust straps. Anyone have pics while baby wearing? I thought it might be fun to see the variety of baby carriers on F14. I'm leaning towards a Infantino Mei Tai I think.

I wish I had a picture! I use the Moby wrap, but it's almost too hot to wear it. I just got DH a carrier for his birthday yesterday. It doesn't fit me all that well, but I hope he will wear it and love it!

@KatyBriggs Does the Beco Gemini have buckles that are near your arm pits? That's the problem I have with my carrier now, no matter how I adjust the straps, the buckle is in my way. If I loosen the straps, she sits too low, if I tighten them, it's too tight all over and then it really digs into my arms. I think that's why I'm leaning towards a more wrap style, but not the Moby. The Moby has way too much fabric for me to deal with!

I don't have any recent ones of DD in the Ergo but I'll try to get a pic of it tonight. I found it's way more comfortable if I put it lower on my waist and loosen the waist strap just a bit. I took the "wear it tightly" to an extreme and could barely breathe, haha. I do wish she could face out in it because she likes to look around but she can turn a little bit in the carrier which is nice. now that I'm more comfortable with putting it on and how it feels, I love it!

@anji1820 I'm sending you a PM. Eeeek I'm excited!

Oddly, I babywore tons more when I only had one baby. I assumed I'd be wearing DD all over the place since i have a toddler to look after but I've only done it two or three times.

That Ergo looks mighty familiar @mosaicmoscato‌ I hope you still like it!

Love both my ergo and am getting into wrapping with the wrap I made for $6 in fabric from Walmart.

On our summer road trip. Love this pic.

i have the JJ Cole agility wrap and its good. Its a jersey type material so it isn't very hot for baby or me--which is important here in SoCal! it just doesn't offer the greatest support so after an hours use or so i get sick of wearing it. but its great for small trips like the grocery store or the mall. i also use it when he is super fussy and wants to be held. i highly recommend it for casual use.

these pictures were from a few months ago...

oh and I'm a big girl and its very comfortable too, which is a big deal for me

We don't baby wear often, but here's a recent one of LO in the k'tan (first time forward facing which he seemed to like a little better)

TessyMessy · August 2014

I wear LO all the time and have no pictures. So I'll just drop by and say we use the Ergo for out and about activities and the K'tan for at home snuggles.
Anyone else's LO dislike forward facing?

@TessyMessy‌ I feel like LO is not very secure in the K'tan forward-facing - or I'm doing it wrong. It makes me nervous! I think she would like to look out but I just can't get the hang of it. I really want to try the Ergo 360 because she could forward face in that and MH and I could both wear it but it's so pricy and I already have the regular Ergo (from eBay) and the K'tan.

@elf828 I put LO forward facing a few times in the K'Tan.. the biggest thing is trying to stretch the straps out to make a "seat" for LO and really securing him with the belt.. He is OK forward facing for short periods of time but still prefers to snuggle in. :x

Limited time only:

1. DIY no sew athletic mesh for water
2. Met some local babywearing mamas for back carry practice
3. DIY ice dyed osnaburg (needs to be hemmed)
4. Not shown- Mexican rebozo coming soon

Omg your dyed one is beautiful.... If you ever think of making them and selling them I would totally buy one!!!

In the ergo at the arcade at the beach... and passed out in it moments later despite the chaos!

@Sakura0019‌ -I'm a baby Bjorn fan too!
Though I haven't tried any wraps so I guess I might have liked one of those better. Garrett's fine in either the Ergo or the Bjorn
