@muddleglum Yes we dreamfeed while cosleeping. I barely wake up and baby stays fully asleep. She slept 7 hours like this on day 2 and has been a solid sleeper since. I consider STTN as baby doesn’t move from the spot you put them, like if she doesn’t need me to get her out of bed to rock her to...

@wisper I think most ppl run 2 cycles… I only do one wash cycle w extra rinse (at least while EBF), but do a very thorough hand rinse when the diaper comes off and then hang to dry in the sun between loads every 3-4 days. I don’t want to run laundry every day so I got enough flats to last half...

@playingforthelord The ring sling I have is linen and very lightweight and cool. I live in the tropics

@playingforthelord World facing would be very stimulating for baby in a big city, and they can’t nap in that position. So just use for short sessions when you know they won’t be sleeping. My baby loves the ring sling hip carry bc she gets a nice view, plus she can still easily nurse and nap.

@tomhanch I did go for the Scout in the end, There was a 20% off sale and I think they had free shipping to Hawaii (which can make a big difference when you live here). It was such a good deal, I know if it doesn’t work I can get back what I paid for it on the 2nd hand market. And I think the...

@rane Ooh nice i hadn’t seen this brand before. I don’t see why more carriers don’t offer the X + H option… Silk sounds amazing but out of my budget. Just noticed the SB 20% off sale ends today, eek!

@jryoung74 Thanks for sharing your experience! Yes I’m thinking the rings might be more aesthetic than functional… they are elegant tho.

@keobong79 Thanks, yes I’ve been researching since before baby was born and now that she’s here I really wanna wear her more so gotta make a decision! So many options it really helped me organize my head to see pros and cons laid out :)

@lme Love my Scout! Got it at about 7 weeks and she is 11 weeks now. She is big so we didn’t get a chance to use the legs-in carry, but that looks snug for smaller babies. She’s off the charts for height and still gaining neck control, so I roll the hood under her next for extra head support...

@confusedbuthopeful Thanks. My partner had an Ergo for his first baby and he didn’t like it so I’ve been diving down the rabbit hole lol

@doublecheck I’m all about second hand and have been scouring eBay, poshmark and facebook. I tried the Wildbird BST group on Facebook but all sellers are asking about $200 or more and they sell fast so at this point might as well get the color I want from the presale.

@romans1212 Aloha! Thanks for chiming in w you preferences. What brands/materials do you like?

I've been nerding out on the different carriers for awhile now, help me make my final decision! Baby girl is almost 3 weeks and 98th %tile (10 lbs at 2 weeks). She's doing well in the Moby wrap so I'm excited for the next steps (have also ordered a ring sling). We live in Hawaii so with the...
