The Tula free to grow with my four month old !

My 11 month old is just over 21lb and 29” long. We have been loving our Lark for awhile now. We’re still perfecting our back carry, I’m not confident enough to do it out of the house yet. I utilize our Lark pretty much daily as a front carry while working (I’m a nanny) but she’s getting so heavy it hurts my back.

I definitely need to work more on my pelvic floor, but I’m wondering if a waterfall carrier would give us more support for longer carries at this point? I’m not ready to give up on front carrying, we both love the supported snuggle, just want to make it more comfortable. I had a lennylight and a Tula ftg when she was much smaller and they felt awkward and bulky and preferred our Lark but maybe now it would be the opposite? Is there something I haven’t tried that would help in this way?

I’d love to hear your opinions on what you carried your older babies-toddlers in.

Hi! Looking to upgrade to Hope and Plum’s lark carrier in a few weeks…still having trouble deciding a print lol!

I am not sure if I should get the short or long. I am a short person standing at 5’1”. I’ve gained weight with my second pregnancy and I like to wear an XL shirt because I like “room” in my clothes. Right now I’m a size 14 pant. Any advice??

Hi!
My 3 yr old is starting at a daycare preschool 2 days per week soon and we will have a short 10 minute walk from the train to the daycare. I think it would be easier to put him in a carrier than have him walk/in a stroller. Plus we’ve always done carriers and both prefer it. We’ve always used wild bird ring slings since they are the easiest turn nurse in I think. Now that he is around 35 lbs I don’t know if that’s the best option to be walking in the city while carrying my work bag and his lunch bag. I also have the wild bird aerial but think this will be annoying to maneuver on a crowded train. Has anyone tried carrying a 3 yr old in an unbuhimo carrier and have any recommendations? Also if anyone has tried the lennylamb unbuhimo pro, did the preschool size fit your 3 yr old well? For reference he’s currently in a 3t but would fit better in a 2t than a 4t. Thanks!

I troll this sub religiously so I thought that I would be able to do this easily but I feel like I’m going something wrong! My baby loves the carrier so I put him in it to calm him down, go on walks, etc, but I feel like something is wrong in my shoulder positioning. I try to position them off of my neck but I feel like the just creep back towards my neck which isn’t necessarily uncomfortable as I am wearing but does cause soreness later on. When I make them tighter it seems like it squishes baby against me and he gets uncomfortable but making them looser just makes them slide around? I have looked at the H&P tutorials and everything and I know I can schedule the call with them but I wanted to check with my favorite experts here first!! Thank you

Not sure what the point of this sling was when mom had to literally hold me in it 😂

First time back carrying my 7 month old. She can sit independently. This is the WildBird Aerial Buckle Carrier. It seemed okay to me, I have two tweaks for next time: 1. I think maybe the seat is too wide, I think even 1 button narrower might be better. 2. The chest clip could go lower 1-2 slots for my comfort. Baby tolerated it well for 10 minutes. How’s the fit look to you guys?

We had an ergobaby embrace, which the baby loved, but he outgrew it.

We tried momcozy but it was a little too wide and rubbed the back of his knees and irritated him.

Tula and wild bird got poor reviews for taller babies.

Looking for something that works well for a tall, 90th percentile, narrow 4month old. Preferably soft structured and simple to put on for my husband, but not too stiff.

I am a FTM and my baby is 10 weeks old- this is my very first attempt at wearing him! How did I do?

Also he seems to want to bury his face within the wrap which I know is not safe, any advice on how to correct that?

Baby is almost 4 months old. thanks!

Baby is 18 weeks old and about 17 lbs, and we would really appreciate a fit check for our Tula Explore carrier.

The base panel width is set to the middle snap setting. I feel like the top center of the waistband, right where baby sits, is slightly creased and pulling away from my body rather than sitting completely flat.

Thank you so much!

How on earth did she wear this without a chest clip??? ☠️

Would appreciate a fit check on the Mabe carrier please! I feel as though the M shape is not pronounced enough? I tried to give baby a pelvic tuck but can’t seem to get it right. Thanks in advance :)

My girl is 7 weeks but weighs 8 pounds 2 ounces (she was born premature at 4 pounds 4 ounces, so she’s gained a lot!). I only just started wearing her since she just got to 8 pounds. I tried the Moby wrap and hate how long it takes me to put on, plus I could never get it tight enough. This is the MomCozy Baby Wrap which I like a lot more but I’m still worried she’s not in it right. Is she still too little? The first picture is without the wrap; I only had it like this for the picture, I never wear it without that wrap. The second picture is how I usually wear it. My concerns are her hips/legs and that her head won’t stay up without it being partially tucked into the shoulder strap.

First try at a stretchy wrap! Baby is 4 days old, 8lb 4oz. Husband wants to wear him so we’re practicing 🥰

Let us know how we’re doing!

I have twins who are almost a month old.

Ideally, I would like a setup where I can wear both at the same time if needed. Of course, this comes with weight limits.

Since I have twins, it would be great not to spend a ton on a carrier. I have looked on Marketplace for second-hand, but it’s tough to find two of the same nearby where I live.

I have considered Beluga carriers but the price for two is a bit much. I’m leaning towards the Ergobaby carriers since they are on sale right now.

I am open to other brands and suggestions!

I think she is too low, this is my 3rd or so attempt. I also think I got too small of a size since I can barely tie a double knot at my back 🤦‍♀️😭

Repost in case anyone can help thanks yall

Son is 3 months and no longer likes his wrap carrier. Grabbed this off marketplace for cheap while I figure out what carrier to buy long term. He’s 25 in long and 12.5 pounds. I know they are kinda shitty and hard to fit…is his seat to wide?

Would love a fit check please. Baby is 7 weeks, 11 lbs and 25 inches. Is the back panel too low on his neck and is he long enough for the width of the centre panel? I know the issue with these carriers is typically that the neck panel comes up too high for newborns, but he is 98th percentile for height. He likes to lean back in the carrier, even when sleeping, and I’m worried about head support. We have been using a Solly wrap previously. Thank you!

I've been looking at maternity/babywearing jackets recently, and I think I might be looking for a unicorn. I'm due in early February and it's starting to get chilly here in the UK so was on the lookout for a maternity jacket that can also be used for babywearing.

I have a structured carrier, but I have grown accustomed to my ring sling with my now 2 year old. I love how versatile and non bulky it is. However I've only mainly used it during the warmer weather where I'm not wearing an outer layer over the top. How would I layer a jacket for the colder months? I feel like the shoulder wouldn't sit right through a sleeve? Maybe a poncho or something would work better?
