How common is babywearing by you?

I agree with Tracey, that it's becoming more common but there are still way more babies in prams. And I would say more than half of the "worn" babies are in baby-bjorn style carriers. I use a pocket sling which I love and I can still carry Tom quite comfortably in it (it's just harder to push a trolley with him in it), and he's turning 1 this month and at least 9kgs. I still carry him in front too - when Jack was this age I used the sling for the hip carry but just find it easier atm to have Tom in front.

Well, I just had my sister and a friend over for tea, and they had a look at the wrap, and my sister tried her DD (7months) in it. It was GREAT! She said it was really comfortable, and she loved the hands free aspect. It was pretty easy to get on and off, and to get baby in and out of. (With practice I think that will get even easier.) So her friend (due two weeks before me) borrowed the wrap and instructions, to talk her DH into it. Maybe. So I might not be the only one in this tiny town with a "weird" wrap. Hurray!
As I said before, I don't really mind being weird. I will do it anyways. But it would be nice to have a couple other mums out there doing the same.
