Adventures in Babywearing

When Sadie was little, I attempted to wear her. We had a version of a moby wrap and a narrow-based Eddi Bauer carrier. Now that I am more educated on how to wear my little one, I shudder to think I kept putting Sadie in the narrow based one, facing out. But you know what? It introduced me to wearing and I'm so glad for that. 😊

I have a dear friend, Stephanie, is is not only a master baby wear-er, but the head of a local babywearing group and even has her own loom!!! She graciously had me over one day and showed me how to get Hollyn up in a wrap. I was in love. She continued in this awesome manner by generously letting me borrow a lovely wrap. Natibaby, size 6, cogs. I was afraid to use it in the morning as Hollyn was having some lovely diapers, but many did I start to fall in love. I got online, researched a variety and bought my first wrap, a Girasol, Earthy Rainbow, diamond weave, size 6. Then I felt obsessed...I was an official baby-wearer. 😀

My stash has grown a but and I now have the following at the moment (after a brief moment I did have a Didy Indio, Penelope, but sold it on the swap due to funky black rails. The green is Girasol, size 5, Mystic Forest

And then there's Girasol, size 5, snow orchid, diamond weave.

And Sadie's make-shift wrap out of a scarf...

And Sadie's fabulous SSC (soft structured carrier), a Boba.

I have also added a teracotta Didy Indio and a magnet Bali Breeze. 

I think it's safe to say, I'm obsessed. :)
