I posted yesterday about some frustrations I've been having with all of my carriers. I got some good tips but of course pictures would've been helpful from the start, so I thought I'd post again with some pictures and questions. Baby is a few days shy of 4 months, about 16 pounds.
First is my ring sling. I got freaked out last week because baby had purple dots on her leg after wearing for about 20 minutes, including a short walk (half a mile?). I think I was overtightening the bottom rail. Tbh these photos are one of my better fits, it felt more secure than it ever has. sling 1 sling 2 sling 3
Next is my Boba 4Gs. This felt best when I had the infant insert in position 1, but now I have it in position 2 as she has outgrown 1. This is my least favorite carrier of the bunch, I can't understand how in the heck it's supposed to fit properly. I want to like it so badly but feel like maybe it'll be best when she can be worn on my back. boba 1 boba 2 boba 3
Now for the Lille Complete. I can't seem to get a deep seat in the slightest, and the narrow setting feels too narrow, but wide is too wide. Again not sure how this makes sense because babies are so many different sizes! I am also maxing out the waistband, so this might be better suited for my husband. Anyway: Lille 1 Lille 2
Last is my Moby wrap. I feel like I have this one down, and it's been my most comfortable option. My main worry is that she is going to outgrow it soon, as she sinks down too far after wearing for only a short while. Naturally she fell asleep in it at the end of our photoshoot. (I adjusted the shoulder pass that looks like it's covering her face!) Moby 1 Moby 2 Moby 3 Moby 4
If you've read this far, thank you so much! I know this is a lot of photos to dump at once but I really want to get this babywearing thing down![Stick out tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
