I feel like we are doing this all wrong. Is he too small for this carrier? Also, is he supposed to be facing towards me? He didn't like to be in this at all but it's so hard carrying him around all day long ?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
AF due 29th, anyone else? Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x
Ever have a bad gut feeling about your husband ? Like he doing something he shouldn’t or whatever ?
He liked his pumpkin bread today 🙃🧐 he is such a weird picky eater. One day he likes something the next he doesn’t 🤷🏻 ♀
what are your thoughts?! My 16 mo old is 19 pounds 2 oz and i keep stressing that he runs around all day and eats alot but they send us 2 in a half hours away to children's hospital of Philadelphia to b examined by a team of gastroenterologists. Like i feel that every kid grows differently and he has a fast metabolism. Hes all clear for all kinds of tests they ran on him nothing is wrong internally. Like its annoying to me that they are just prying where there's nothing wrong at all. I've cooperated this far (it's been 5 months of going up there each month) but im ast my wits end. Im yo the point now where hes not on formula but hes on pedialite 3 times a day and water is the only other liquid he has. Idl guys what do u think?!???????

I'm glad you asked for help op. I hate seeing moms like this in the store, it's very uncomfortable for baby and the long term effects are not worth it.

Always face you! Always!

Feet get tucked and facing you. He should be all cuddly and cozy as he would normally fall asleep on your chest, if that makes sense. Using your boobs as a pillow :) you should be able to kiss his head :)

@mona that's funny that you say that because I've always told my mom that my baby is such a sweaty baby and that's why I don't dress him in anything too warm at nighttime. Now you have me wondering if he's actually "sweaty" ?? being a mommy is such a learning experience

Awhhhh lol you're a good mommy. You tried. This post made me laugh a little lolol mom fail.
When I had my son, I thought he sweat a lot at night because he was always soaked in the morning. So I took him to the doctor and turns out that I wasn't doing his diaper correctly and it was pee. ???? I still laugh about it.

Thanks for the info. I had no idea facing forward wasn't good for baby

?front carrying puts pressure on baby's spine. And can cause overstimulation among other things. Here is some info

If he cant hold his head up without support he needs to be facing towards you.

Those more structured carriers work better for a bit older baby.
I would turn him around and put a rolled up receiving blanket under his bum to keep him sitting a bit higher. His legs should be froggied. So knees higher than bum which you can maneuve with the blanket. You should be able to see a clear open airway when you look down and kiss the top of his head. Once you figure out what works best than it will become second nature!

Thank you, I'll try facing him towards me. I wasn't sure I've never used one before. I regret adding this carrier to my registry it's so bulky and uncomfortable ?

Lol he looks so uncomfortable. I have the same carrier, hate it. My husband is the only one that can use it correctly.

He needs to face you, you should be able to kiss the top of his head as well.
It should be almost like when he's laying on your chest normally but just in the carrier.

Try front facing him as PP's said. He looks too small to be facing that way!

Turn that poor baby around!! He looks uncomfortable. Try YouTube videos for your brand.
