Re: Babywearing with FAB...it works!

Ah! Good for you and oh so much better for your baby than that dang CAR seat

(which ought to just remain in the dang car!)

Babywearing with FAB...it works!

I have been wanting to get a sling so I could " wear " Mason instead of

carrying him in his carseat (which he hates) so I did the research and

we ended up buying a Dr. Sears Original Baby sling. I wasn't sure if I

would be able to carry him in the sling, but it works excellent with

the FAB! He's very conmtent in it both awake and asleep, as well as

nursing. He doesn't actually lie in it, but more like sits facing me

with his legs hanging out. If anyone is interested, the website is

www.askdrsears.com. Go To the topic " Fussy Babies " and then there is a

link to babywearing. Also, if interested in seeing how we use the

sling, I can put up some pics!

I would love to see some photos!! We have both a Lucky Baby Sling and a Baby

Bjorn, and I

couldn't figure out how to use the sling with the casts or the FAB, so I'm using

the Bjorn... I

really don't like it too much, but I have already switched from the bucket car

seat and am

not going back to it, so I need some way to transport the littlest one into

stores. I'm not

too fond of strollers at his young age, either. Guess I just want my cake and

eat it,

too!! :-)

You can email me directly if you want... doesn't matter to me... (if you don't

want photos

of you and baby online)

ee-- are you an experienced baby-wearer? I am a complete idiot when it

comes to

the sling, as I said earlier, it took me an embarassingly long time to figure

out how to put

the darn sling on, let alone try different positions. This is the biggest

reason I use the

bjorn--I know it and it's easy. Sort of.

Anyway, if you (or anyone else out there) are good at using the sling and could

offer

advice from picts of my kids in the sling I would appreciate it! I think my

sling is too big,

but can't tell, and it's been so long since I ordered the thing that I don't

think I can

exchange it. I hope to find out later today, as I emailed them earlier. I just

want an easier

way to carry while he's in the FAB for so much of his day.

Thanks (again) in advance!

S

Thanks for the tip. I tried it out and Mason seems comfy that way

too. Stacee, check it out. I took a picture in the mirror so you

could see. It is under Photos\Mason.
