Baby Wearing General Chatter #2

[Ambersky]

Welllll would you believe it, i went nosing and there is also 2 different 100cotton Violets too, violet/white and violet/natural known as Viola. Geek out.

[Chrispe]

Just out of curiosity I was wondering if there is an SA baby wearing group here?

Also I have a simplicity sewing pattern for a sling that I'm looking to pass on. if anybody is interested PM me

[onthefly]

Yep there is. Take a look on fb.

[Tuesday's Child]

Chrispe, on FB there's a group Adelaide Baby Wearers. There are members from all over SA.

[Chrispe]

Thanks.

Am I right in thinking pretty much all patterned Natis are colour-reversible? For example, my Milky Way is indigo and turquoise - will it be indigo sky/turquoise stars on one side, and turquoise sky/indigo stars on the other? I hadn't even considered it when I ordered but having seen a lot of wraps on the BSS page and TBW, I'm beginning to think I'll like it even more than I thought! I'm guessing it'll be a bit hot, but I'll deal with that when I get to it. I reckon it'll be brilliant

Starbright is down visiting us with her family. and I was wearing Spock on my back, so Starbrights DD wanted to wear her baby too =)

Natibaby cats turquoise/heather 4 is MINE!!! Sooooo excited, it should arrive this week. Now to branch out into size 4 wraps (usually do FWCC in a size 6). Hit me with your favourite carries with a 4 for a chubby 12 week old!!

[onthefly]

you got it! yay
Are you doing any back carries or just front? You can probably do a front cross tied under bum and kangaroo carry with a 4

I have a Beco Butterfly 2 and want to learn back carry but never seem to be able to get it right.

[~TT40~]

i 2nd the ruck back carry. its exactly why i want a 4. so i only have a 6 atm and is a bit long to do it. just need to save a few more $$ to get a 4 =)

[AngelPants]

I ruck in a 6, with the tails tucked into the waist bit? A little bulky but gets them outa the way.

I think I need a ring sling. What brands are ok? It doesn't need to be anything fancy but I need something quick for when we drive to melb in a couple of weeks.

[onthefly]

Are you able to come along to a sling meet Phebee? (are you on the fb page?)
You can ruck in a longer one, it's just a bit of a nuisance
Sorry, don't really know about ring slings

[purplepixie1978]

Storchenwiege do a great RS with a gathered shoulder, really sturdy for a toddler... Some prefer a pleated shoulder though so try to get to a sling meet.

[Jennifer13]

I want one of those Sakura Bloom slings. I have another RS that's good for quick carries but I'm thinking the SB will be sturdier as DD2 gets into *gulp* toddlerhood. She's crawling everywhere now, which is super cute but means she won't be held in my arms (she wriggles until I put her down). Luckily bwing keeps her up and happy!
