Baby Wearing

Signe and Mads are modelling the Baby Bjorn, while Ike and I are wearing the Beco.

There are a zillion ways to wear your baby. At our house we have a few different carriers that we have used for both kids--front soft structured carriers, wraps, slings, ring slings, structured back packs.
For Ike as a newborn I liked the Moby wrap because he just melted into me and there were no body parts sticking out. I haven't tried him in the Moby lately to see what he thinks. Usually, when I first start wearing him he gets really mad so I have to walk. move. dance. so that he calms down. When he was a newby I did the dishes while wearing him. Once I was cooking a quesadilla for Missy and thought, "one day I will look at his severely burned skin and hate quesadillas". I don't cook while wearing him anymore--too much moving and too many limbs!
