I’m 21 weeks pregnant and decided to try a FWCC with my somewhat cranky 20 month old as my first ever carry.

Any and all tips welcome! I think I’d add a few more twists in the front before tying at my back so that I can tie under the bump (the carrier was pressing into my bump here) and I definitely get now what folks mean when they say strand by strand tightening takes practice.

Just doing the FWCC till I gain the confidence to do a back carry — I’ve only ever done with my Mei dai 😄

Carrier is the Moomin woven wrap by LennyLamb

Blurred faces for a little more anonymity (it looks silly I know), but how is the fit on our newborn? Is he leaning a little too much? Should it be tighter? Or higher?

Thank you all in advance.

Carrier is happy baby.

The first 2 pics her head seems too far slumped toward my chest. The other 2 pics seems her head is too far backwards. Her chin is not slumped towards her chest in any of these pics

Baby is 5months old, as for his weight i’m not sure but he is somewhere around 7.7-8kg

I really want to get the hang of baby wearing! I feel like this is my best wrap yet, but I want to get opinions of how it looks. I can kiss the top of his head by bending my head.

Just a follow up regarding my concern from before https://www.reddit.com/r/babywearing/s/vP4jzaOZ2c , took a while bc we had to move etc. But anyways! I also got a diff carrier to test if it was my old carrier's fault but it was not haha. She's now 12months 2wks and the kicking stopped for a while but now it's back. I tried to google about it, and the internet said it's sometimes a soothing thing???? If theyre like over tired or what. But idk sometimes she does it for an hour but still doesnt fall asleep or anything 😩 im hoping it's nothing srs or what. Idk how to attach a video of the kicking haha but imagine it's like she's swimming in place or like a frog stretching its legs.

I wrapped my baby multiple times a day for hours, basically every nap and outing. I plan to do the same if I have another kid and would like wrap that would do well with my current 15m old too.

Should I go with 100% cotton or a linen blend? What brand would you recommend for linen? Girasol doesn't make linen, and Didymos and LennyLamb have limited options. I'm avoiding Oscha.

Baby is 8 days old

I’m trying to find a carrier for my small newborn, trying out this boba wrap carrier. Is she still too small?

Hi all, just needing some guidance with baby wearing. I am wondering if I have my 3 mo baby sitting too high on my chest. I always worry that his head isn’t in best position when sleeping, he’s never got his chin to chest, but his head doesn’t til upwards like I see in the photos of others and demonstration videos. TIA

Edit: he is 62cm and almost 7kg (15lb)

My kids were running around with my Tula free to grow carrier and a piece of the strapping came apart. It’s hard to explain but I’ve got pictures to show. If anybody knows how to loop it back together please let me know!!

As the title suggests

Does this look correct? Ive googled and watched the videos but im still not sure.

Shes 6kg, its on the narrowest setting and she doesnt seem to totally hate it.

FTM with a 7 week old squish.

I’m trying to master the ring sling for easy ups and downs. Two things I’m having a hard time with:

1. Getting the shoulder to spread well out and not cramp up on my neck
   
2. Getting the extra bottom fabric to stay up between us to create a really deep pocket. It tends to slide back to her bottom and just bunch up there

Would love any feedback on fit!

The ‘ber months are well on their way and i’m struggling to find clothing for my 3.5 LO that is safe to have on while she is on me. We use a stretchy wrap and I was told that footed pj’s are a no-go since they are pull at the toes (makes sense). But how else can I layer baby? I’m having a hard time finding clothing that I can use as a second layer that isn’t footed for LO’s age. Any suggestions or recommendations?

And while yes I know that LO gets plenty of warmth from me and the wrap it’s still not enough, especially outside!

Thanks in advance!

Hello! I’m looking for a linen wrap that I can also use as a ring sling. My baby is 22 pounds at 6 months and I really want to baby wear for awhile. I loved how my boba wrap felt but obviously he is too big for the stretchy material now. I have a momcozy structured carrier and I hate it, I’ll probably look into a different one for that. But I really would love a linen wrap that can be used for back wearing, front facing, side wearing! All of it! Is this even possible? lol

Don't look at my double chin LOL but does this look ok? This is my first time trying it, not sure how I feel about it yet lol

Hello!! I have been a long time lurker, I wanted to double check I’ve been doing this right 😅 baby is 3 months and now almost 11 pounds.
I am also ready to transition to a regular carrier and I’ve been curious about the OG happy baby one. Anyone with good/bad experiences that want to share their opinions? I am open to any advice for any other carrier that could fit a smaller baby. Thank you!

Hi all,
Travelling to Japan in Dec and it’s winter over there compared to peak Australian summer, and I haven’t got a clue what to dress my 14 month old in the carrier in 10C/50F weather. Apparently those fluffy pram suits are not ideal as well.
I also don’t know how much my toddler wants to be out of the carrier or in the pram or walking either, he’s a Velcro baby so he’s always been happy to live in the carrier so far. I probably need to account for an extra layer on the side in this case?

Any help much appreciated

Thank you!!

We currently have the Ergobaby Omni Classic. I love that it’s comfortable for me, but my baby runs hot so I’m looking for something that is more breathable in hot and humid weather. We are also going to be traveling with it so something not so bulky and easy to take on and off would be great. Please give me your recommendations and why. Thank you!

Hello! Just found this sub today, and it is exactly what I need. Just put my 3 week old in the ring sling for the first time. Feels snug and comfortable, legs are up in the M shape. She has a habit of getting curvy in her spine, I'm not sure if I should be trying to correct that while in the Carrier?

Just wanting to see if i put this on right or if my baby is the right size for it. According to the manufacturer she is but this thing is all over the place with what it says.

I'm looking for recommendations for a carrier/sling/wrap that can fit me (UK 12/14) and my husband (2XL) without too much faffing to change the sizes?

Little one is currently 3 weeks old, over 4kg

We're in the UK, and ideally we would buy second hand off Vinted
