This is West Coast Momma, the first topic I am eager to talk about is baby wearing. Both of us Momma’s are trying out different carriers, I am using a pouch sling. I also constructed a second one using a funky old t-shirt I had. I have been wearing my little pixie since she was born, and still do 15 months later. I am eager to try other ones for my next little one. There are such cute fabrics to choose from, I am thinking of testing out a Mei Tei.
Here are some fun facts about baby wearing that you can read about at Dr. Sear’s wonderful and informative site. It has made it easy from me to get things around the house done, work in my home office, while also bonding & responding to Pixie. I especially like the research how cultures that wear their babies don’t have colic. Pixie rarely cried and I know it is because I was able to respond to her easily when she needed something. Being a novice sewer I may have to try my hand at making some baby carriers. Stay tuned…..
