PMed you, Audax.

You should have seen the impressed looks at my postnatal exercise class today when I (bravely - first time in public!) wrapped DD2 on my back with a double hammock. (Epacris told me it would change my life and she's right, i can get so much more done). They were all especially impressed when she immediately fell asleep. The physio raved about how good that carry was for my back. And when we all had lunch I was hands free and uninterrupted.

One of the helper ladies, an older South African, said all the African nannies carry their babies on their backs and that's what they did with her children when they were young.

One of the Mums wanted to know how to do it and where to get a wrap. They're mostly on baby no 2 or 3 so I'm guessing the hands free is appealing.
