Carrying Baby Hasn’t Been Easier

May 14th, 2010

I have discovered baby wraps and carriers.  I’m all for anything that helps me carry baby around comfortably and safely when were out and about.  They even come in handy around the house. I started with a soft wrap–the Moby Wrap.  At first I was overwhelmed by all the fabric!  It seems like it goes on forever.  But after a few tries I was able to master the Cradle Hold that works great with newborns.  Baby enjoyed being carried in this hold and often fell asleep.  The instruction booklet is easy to follow with step by step photos and you can find videos on the Moby Wrap site.

My latest purchase is a BABYBJÖRN Carrier.  After some research I decided to go with the  Synergy model.  This model seems to combine the benefits of the Air Carrier -the lightweight airy fabric, with the lumbar support of the Active Carrier.  I’ve taken baby on a few strolls with it and one long trip.  Baby seemed comfortable during the longer walk and despite it being a warm day both baby and mommy managed to stay dry.
