We often get stopped and told how lovely our daughters look which is really sweet of people. My husband even got
stopped once while browsing tables at a carboot sale. It turned out that
despite the lady having four daughters not one of them was carried by their daddy.
My husband is therefore in her eyes one lucky guy to be carrying our baby.
Look at any baby wearing social media site and it’s
clear both genders enjoy a selfie with their baby. In fact some people argue that baby wearing
helps introduce a newborn to the world like a baby kangaroo or koala would do so. A kind of fourth and final trimester with baby if you like.
The Sling
We started with a sling like a scarf. In our experience it
wasn't the easiest sling to work with and was time consuming putting it on and taking it off. It would drag on the ground if you weren't careful as you tried to tie it
in place but it was lovely and comfortable. With our second child I bought a Close Caboo, which is perfect for walks in the great outdoors and is definitely my favourite option.
The Manduca
When our eldest daughter was the right size to move in to a Manduca which I tried at a sling library first we made the transition. We found it really comfortable and we had no complaints with straps dragging on the floor. All the buckles and fastenings are neatly placed and it was easy for both of us to wear. Even our daughter enjoyed the comfort of this sling as she often fell asleep in it.
