babywearing

Hi! I have an 11 month old and up until now I have mostly used everything BUT an SSC (woven wraps, ring sling, onbuhimo, meh dai). But now that he’s getting bigger and reaching the “pick me up! No, put me down!” stage, the convenience of an SSC would be nice. I have a standard size kinderpack...

I have the izmi wrap for my son but he’s almost 7 months and very wriggly and so I’m wanting something a little bit more sturdy and supportive. Ideally I’d love something that he can sit front and back facing but I’m on a budget! Head support would be great too as I love those little baby...

I'm looking to upgrade my baby carrier. I received a baby bjorn at one of my showers and never loved it. (Also after finding this sub, realized it wasn't great for baby either). I'm torn between either the Tula Explore or the Ergobaby Omni. I'm leaning toward ergobaby because it looks like it...

I only put my baby in the carrier for naps. 90% of the time she fusses and fights until she falls asleep. Often I will move her arm out, so she can push off my chest. And I will hold her head to my chest. I sing her to sleep. Within 2-3 minutes she’s out. I feel bad for making her upset...

My 3 month old baby hates all 3 baby carriers I have which include the solly wrap, the k’tan and the ergo embrace. I’ve been trying to wear her since she was born and she fusses each time. Ironically she wants me to carry her in an upright position all the time. Unfortunately my neck and back...

Hi! I’m 22 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby. My other two are 1 and 2. I have the baby bjorn mini which is fine for when baby is a little bigger with head control. I also bought a used wildbird sling but haven’t used it before. I know I don’t like wrap style carriers. I’m sure it was user error...

I don’t know anything about baby wearing. I’m due in 9 days and will be buying one second hand on Facebook marketplace. Ideally one that’s not complicated to put on and remove every time, so not a wrap. It would have to be suitable from early days and obviously support a v young baby. I’m...

Was thinking of the ergobaby 360 cuz it has good reviews, but not too sure if it would suit someone who’s short like me or if height matters much in this case? What is a carrier that you would recommend for someone like me?

Hello, I am a first time mom due March 1st and I was recently gifted this ring sling from my sister. I am wondering if any kind humans on this sub could help me determine if this sling is safe for my future daughter? This is an album of images of the sling I have not seen anything like it...

I saw that its on sale at Zulilly today. The reviews on Amazon are mixed and I'm a little confused on how it would work as a back carrier if the straps are crossed in the front. I'm a plus size momma with a large bust. Also new to all of this. I'd appreciate anyone experience with this carrier...

My baby is 1 month old and we have two stretchy wraps (a thick Boba and a lightweight Sollybaby) and an old Ergo Omni 360. She usually likes the stretchy wraps (I’m wearing her in the boba now haha), but sometimes when she’s cranky she won’t go in it and just wants to be held to fall asleep. I’m...

With a humid summer ahead of me, I've been considering a ring sling for my baby (currently have a Solly wrap and WildBird Aeriel). My boy is on the big side (around 70%) so I'm nervous that his weight will be too much for my shoulders in a ring sling, but the light fabric/easy of getting baby in...

My wife had an emergency cesarean. The healing has been a tricky process, and she is still getting pain around the scar when wearing our son in the carrier 5 months on. Are there any things to try or change to reduce the pressure around the area? Or a different type of carrier that might be...

Okay, so I’ve scoured the Reddit posts and just can’t decide. I want to get a soft structure carrier for my 8 week old. I currently have a stretchy wrap, ring sling, and an infantino carrier my husband uses. This is for me as something beautiful, stylish, but functional. I’m currently looking...

Help! I just had my second for my 2 u 2 and am looking for a carrier that I can use that is comfy for both baby and me for around the house and out and about! For reference I have a 3m old that is maaaybeee 15lb or slightly under so no need for a ginormous carrier. I also do not need a carrier...

My beautiful hope&plum ring sling I have spent so much money on and SO much time trying to figure out. I’ve watched the tutorials, I did the consult with Mallory, I paid for a consult with a local babywearing expert, I practice putting my baby in like 4-5 times a day. I would say three times or...

Hi everyone! I have a 2 week old who I would like to baby wear. I currently have the baby k’tan, but both baby and I are not a fan. Sometimes baby will sleep in it, other times she will fuss and squirm, and stops as soon as I take her out. To me it feels tight and I find it doesn’t to know if...

Okay so, I was looking at the super pretty looking Baby K’tan Original Wrap on Amazon just now.. and actually ordered it a few minutes ago. I’ve heard good things. But now that I’m looking around more on here I’m worried it won’t feel good whatsoever with my baby weighing too much (~17 lbs) and...

Ok, we have the following: -Baby K’tans. My husband likes his, I hate mine. Baby likes it. -Sakura Bloom ring sling-I use this every day to go on walks/get stuff done around the house. Baby likes it. -inherited Lillebaby of some sort that I haven’t really explored yet. Baby is 5 weeks...

Had a c-section with my first and wasn’t able to baby wear with my structured carrier due to pressure pushing down on my belly. This time I bought a ring sling to try in case I need to have another c-section. View Poll
