    Thank you for your reply. I have a baby bojorn carrier, I have been finding it is making my shoulders ache and I have had a couple of headaches. My DS is just over 5 kg.
    I have just bought a HAB, waiting for it to be delivered, since I have heard the ppl on here rave about them.

    I don't co-sleep as my DH is a smoker, though my DS will occasionally join us after 4am, on my side. My DH is also too deep a sleeper, his pillow get shuffled in my direction and he has elbowed me in his sleeep.

    Thanks for your reassurance, you just hear so much from CHN and peaeds Dr about it being a bad habit.

    If you do need to put him down in his bed for a sleep at times during the day instead of wearing him, it would be OK to put him on his tummy or side to sleep if that's what he prefers because you will be able to go and check on him kwim? Some babies just prefer to sleep that way. But once you get a HAB you should notice a difference in how it makes you feel and not worry about wearing him so much. Baby Bjorns are OK, but they really aren't much chop for wearing a baby all the time.
