I don't think they found it that great when their babe was tiny, but it worked great when she got older. Lots of people find that it's helpful to have more than one sling around. You and the baby will get into moods. He'll want more or less freedom of motion, or vertical or horizontal positioning. You'll want the weight spread out more or him out of your way to do household chores more, or whatever. Different ones are good for in the house vs. out in the world.<BR/> <BR/>So, I'm just saying, keep your eyes peeled for opportunities to borrow or get for cheap other slings - a wrap style (ellaroo or moby), a mei tai style, and a pouch/pocket style would all be excellent complements to the ring-sling (what yours is called).<BR/><BR/>Did it come with a video to learn about positions and use? If it didn't, download one or see if you can borrow a DVD or watch it on the mayawrap website or something. And if Flipper or you don't love it right away, get someone to help you with positioning and stuff cuz they (like everything) do have a learning curve.fostermamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09892654110641448023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21200500.post-65636387383840326772007-11-30T13:03:00.000-05:002007-11-30T13:03:00.000-05:00Awesome belly shot.

And what a nice, warm, fuzzy surprise your co-workers gave you!<BR/><BR/>I'm so excited every time I see that you or Co has written a post because I know the time is coming where the post will be about Flipper's arrival. <BR/><BR/>As a side note, it must be a relief to have so many things falling into place (i.e., the packing, his bed, where you are in your curriculum, etc.).

I was retaining so much water the last few weeks of pregnancy that I'd lost close to 30 pounds at my 2 week post-partum visit. It was nice to be able to see the bones in my feet again, haha.) <BR/><BR/>Congrats on the shower. The surprise sounds like lots of fun! Looking forward to refreshing your page more than usual until we learn of Flipper's arrival!*G*https://www.blogger.com/profile/13920863650122064563noreply@blogger.com
