I Am Wearing My Baby
Every day with a baby is special in one way or another, but today was especially special. A few weeks ago I posted a picture of me with Berith in the Baby Bjorn we have. Kristen, NINO Leader, saw the picture and let me know the potential dangers of having her head hanging like that. I started being careful about her head flopping around inside the carrier. I also started having worse and worse back pain lugging her around in that thing all day. So I started looking at some baby-wearing sites, mainly MamaToto and TheBabyWearer. Finally, Ben and I went to a fabric store and bought some stretchy cute purplish/pinkish striped fabric that was on clearance and voila, I had my first wrap. It doubles as a shirt, too. I need to take a picture of it. Here it is!!
I wore Berith all day today, morning till late at night and my back is fine. No pain, but lots of gain. Baby and Mama were both really happy today.
I also framed a couple paintings I bought in Vancouver, BC last October and and hung them in the dining room. I really like them. If you do, too, you can buy them here.
“I Am Wearing My Baby” has been splattered on just once.

Where did you learn how to do the different carries? I tried to do it to Evelyn today and it was hilarious. We couldn’t figure it out on our own. Will have to wait til her father comes back.
