    Heh, I must've gotten lucky - DS has only spewed a handful of times while being worn. Spewed a lot everywhere else, and there were quite a few occasions where it'd end up with both me and him in the shower and clean clothes after being soaked to the skin - but never in a carrier.

    Gorgeous BAL! And Jett seems very happy with it too.

    Yesterday I was walking with DD2 on my back when I felt her turn her head and then it sounded like i'd dropped something. I turned around to see a puddle on the ground Seems DD has learned to chuck to the side so neither of us gets covered

    Lovely BAL!

    I haven't had much back spew thankfully. I do seem to get cleavage spew every time I front carry though.

    This DH is driving me mad! No matter how tight I pull it when wrapping, the top chest rail always ends up loose and then I get pressure on my shoulders.. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong as it seems tight when I'm doing it.

    how are you tightening Loulabelle? I find pixie curl's tute really helpful - she tightens across the rail and then does the L Pull.... there's another one where another wrapper shows how to keep it tight from the start, but that look harder to me

    Waaahhhhhh, DH accidentally took "Snowy" to work with him and now I can't go for a walk like I want to!

    (...Or, I can just use the Ergo. Or one of the ring slings. Or a stroller...)

    HotI - Noice one DS. Pity he can't use his cleverness to be kind to his mama.

    Teni - Oh no. None of your other options could possibly compare to snowy.

    TT - Yay, will have to jump on and check the pics out. ETA: That is amazing! Can't wait to see an action shot.

    Loulabelle - I couldn't get DH until I saw the L-pull. It's the tightening while standing up that does the trick. If I try to tighten the chest pass while bending over it will never be as tight as I can get it while upright.

    Does anyone have tips to get Amelia to like being wrapped more? She screams and tries to run away when I start preparing her to be up on my back, then squirms once she's up there and I'm completing the wrap. When it's all finished she's usually fine and happy, but those initial steps are so difficult! Wrapping in public is a mess because it looks and sounds like I'm torturing the poor kid - we're not a great advertisement for babywearing

    She never really had this trouble with the other carriers unless she was already cranky...

    Try doing it in front of a mirror, Teni. Seems to amuse DD2!

    you may be able to distract her with something. maybe also try practising with a toy or something so you get quicker. My DD still complains about being wrapped and there are times when it just isn't going to happen. She's also fine once it's done.
