    I've owned a few, sure. They're all so different it's not possible to say categorically that I like didymos. I mean, I've liked the ones I've had to greater or lesser extent.

    I got DD on my back for the first time today =) we tried a ruck (and I finally understand why people want shorter carriers) and a double hammock. She cried through out though, unless I was actually walking (rather than just moving, I had to be walking) she will get use to it thought right, I figure if i just keep at it and do it for a little bit of time each day etc.. she will get to know it and feel safe etc. I'm think I did pretty good jobs of it. I did take photos...they are in my baby wearing album

    well done! The pics are a bit hard to see, but it looks good. How does it feel? You definitely need a shorter wrap for a ruck. You might find that as you get better at wrapping that you can do both carries in a 4... (so long as the wrap is fairly thin).

    Sometimes they do hate the actual wrapping part, but are fine once you're moving. My DD is like that.
    Soemtimes they hate being wrapped. It depends on them, you know?
