Did you swaddle your babies?

Anyway, since then, I have started my own baby carrier company with the long tied wraps. I dunno how this works, but if you'd like to do a review of my wrap and put it up as one of your suggested wraps on your site I'd be really thankful. They are made through fair trade and I do an individual painting on each one. Anyway, check out my website and send me an e-mail to tell me what you think. hope all is well on the farmfront! hey lady, I don’t know if you remember me, but you and I messaged each other back a few times after your little bob was born, cause my little amelie was born around the same time.

I don't lug around a car seat with a baby in it into a store (terrible for your back!); our car seats STAY in the car. We use car seats in cars, I would imagine to do otherwise would be quite unsafe.

I've read your review on the BABYHAWK, checked out the website, watched some Youtube videos. Seems like the best idea yet, so I will more than likely purchase one. However, the Didymos seems to come rated with many stars. Is it really, really easy to put on alone? My husband leaves earlier in the morning and is gone most of the day, so I have nobody to help me tie a ten-month-old (safely) onto my back. Like yourself, I also need to be able to wear my child for long periods at a time, so I trust your level of comfort rating on these carriers!

It's fine if I'm just sitting outside, but going on walks, we both get back to the house covered in sweat. I'm glad to hear you suggest the Mei Tei because my husband loves the look of them and says he'll wear our daughter if she's carried it something like that. As much as I love wearing her, it would be nice for the two fo them to get some bonding time in as well - he claims she hates him because she cried almost everytime he hold her. I think he just doesn't spend enough time with her for her to get used to him. Now, our friend has also purchased us a Kissed Baby sling which we're waited for it to arrive - do you enjoy using slings from birth, or do you prefer them for an older age?
