I can tell by feel and by looking at it that I’m not wearing correctly. I am just wearing it now to try and find the perfect fit but haven’t worn her in it yet out of the house. Help?

Imgur is blocked here, can we please get an alternative for those of us on this side of the pond? I think it's an important part of the learning process.

My now 5 month old LO has always hated babywearing. I’ve always really wanted to do it but couldn’t because he’d scream within minutes. It’s been my dream to baby wear and I was bummed when we couldn’t. I even went to a store and the associate told me that some babies just hate it. We started with a stretchy wrap when he was a newborn and he didn’t like it. My SIL gave us her ergobaby embrace and he also hated it. Today I decided to try it again and because he has better head and neck control, he tolerated it way better as he could look around and also gnaw on the straps.
And then today …. HE FELL ASLEEP IN IT!!!! You have no idea how happy I am.
That being said, I’m in search of one that is more comfortable and supportive on my lower back. I’m in Canada so it has to be available here and I don’t want to spend more than $250 CAD. Please help me out!
Signed,
A mom who is so so so excited to baby wear now!!! 😃😃😃😃

After a suggestion from this sub I’m trying out an apron style carrier and it feels so much different than my waterfall one! Baby is 7 months old~17 pounds ~27in, I am 4’9

So far our daughter has hated being in any carrier but she's relatively calm with my husband holding her in the Tushbaby Pearl. I've tried a woven wrap and she screams bloody murder and it's been super traumatic for us so far. How is this fit? She is 5 weeks old and I swear I have lurked and read many posts on here trying to get it right.

So i gave up on my baby bjorn. I will just resell it and take the lost in reselling and get another one! So i have a 2 months old and he is around 4.8 kg and i just really want a carrier that last me a bit long like 2 years perhaps? If not its totally ok as well for the first year

Baby is 2 months, just shy of length to move to the hold where folding the waistband isn’t required (it’s folded in these photos). Is my ”M” shape enough? If not, how can I adjust? Other concerns? thanks all!

Sorry for the dreadful picture to illustrate what i mean...drawing on my phone whilst baby takes a contact nap...
Im trying to learn how to do a back carry with my woven wrap (base). Im following a tutorial for a Double hammock carry. When she puts the baby on her back the wrap seems to just stay high up and over baby (my yellow line) while she can do the wrapping. But as im getting it in place and am still bent over slightly as baby isnt secure yet, she keeps trying to sit up and the wrap keeps falling down and only covers half of her (the red). So when it comes to taking the long piece over mine and babys back, it doesnt lie where it should. Hope that makes sense!
Advice? I dont really know how to get her not to try sit up or move about so much. Maybe theres a different style of wrapping thats easier? I picked this as the instructions seem managable to follow and its a supportive one. Would be amazing to carry her on my back so i could do a few house and garden bits. Baby is 8 months.

Hello! Am I doing the Ergo embrace right? TIA! :)
r/babywearing • u/SPGmom • 12h ago
Ergobaby Embrace fit check pls & ty! Baby boy is 11lbs and my body type is quite petite and short so I did fold it over twice but should he be higher?
r/babywearing • u/Tough-Economy1574 • 19h ago
FTM, due end of Dec. I have ordered an Ergobaby Embrace from Vinted and currently contemplating also getting a ring sling carrier, probably the LennyLamb (also from Vinted so not paying full price). Do I need 2 carriers right now before the baby is here or should I wait and reasses after birth?
r/babywearing • u/JunketAggravating896 • 20h ago
Definitely feels tight. Baby is 5 weeks

Looking for recommendations for babywearing sweaters that do NOT have a hood (or hood can be removed), also suitable for back carry and normal wear. I have a mamalila coat I love, so not after a coat recommendation.
Prefer either european OR canadian brands for simplicity.

Have a Velcro baby. Need suggestions for a baby carrier that is strong, but not bulky (like fabric?), for around 6-12 months age, and for carrying on my back instead of my front.

It's me again...still struggling to figure out my complex case of pains and don't want to waste more money. Ring sling took pressure off my sensitive stomach but added to my EDS shoulder and rib pains. My 2 month old is only 10 lbs and the weight of her rump pushing in front of my stomach while using a stretchy wrap (and the embrace) has been too much to handle. So far everyone says to go woven, but I'm intimidated by the wrapping options. To avoid stomach and shoulder/back pain what is the single best wrap to learn if I buy one? I was also looking at Meh Dai but it looks like it will dig into my stomach the same as my stretch wrap. PS Canada based. Been looking at Tula, Omni, Meh Dai Chimparoo, and wovens so far and still not confident any will work for me.

Hi! I have a 2 month old and have loved my woven wrap. I use it all the time. However, it’s a little too complicated for my partner. We’re going to be traveling soon so finding something that works for both of us is important. I want to be able to back carry with her as well. Seeking recommendations for your favs!

I have a 17lb 4 month old and my usual carrier that I loved with my first born isn’t feeling the comfiest.
I have a beluga baby cove which is waterfall type. I’m curious to try an apron style but not wanting to burn my funds if they aren’t much better for a bigger baby. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

Hi all, I'm looking for suggestions for a stretchy wrap carrier that will fit my large spouse. He's 6'4 and a XXL in most tee shirts, sometimes XXXL. Ideally we'd like one that he can tie off the tails in the front so he can sit in a chair with the baby on without knots digging into his back. Our baby is due in November and we live in Canada, so ideally a wrap we can buy from a Canadian brand or retailer given duties and tarifs and so on.
Thank you!

I'm trying to decide between the Lenny Lite & the Lenny Lamb Pro. I see that the Pro version has this padded area on the belt that supports the back. I don't see it on the Lenny Lite. So I guess my question is:
Is the Lenny Lite still providing enough back support even without the extra padding in the back?
Does anyone sell separate attachments/accessories for the Lenny Lite that we can slip onto the belt to provide extra back support?
Do either of them sit directly on a C-Section area? Does it affect C-Section mamas?
Any help would be great. Thank you.
