You are doing fantastically well, I could barely leave the house for six months after having my second- let alone have time to get in front of a camera to make helpful videos!! Probably the toughest few months of my life. I hope you’re being kind to yourselves and reminding one another daily! -Best wishes from a fellow Doctor/Mum of 2

This is an incredible instructional video. I had such a hard time with my Solly wrap and trying to figure out exactly how to tie, and cross. This video has me so excited for baby #2 to arrive, so I can conquer the wrap! Thank you for this video! ❤️

Thank you for a very informative demonstration! I'm a nanny & will have a 12-week-old along with 2 older brothers starting tomorrow. Baby-wearing will be essential!

I could have used this 3 weeks ago when I was trying to get my newborn in there! Thankfully I had a friend who helped me. Also, the Koala carrier has been lifechanging. I love the Moby but having the cross already done when your 5 week old is screaming is amazing.

@EthOrlen 10 ай бұрын

We ditched the wraps pretty quickly for a K’tan wrap and a soft carrier. I now see the thing we were missing was the pre-tightening. 😅 That said, it worked out for the best; baby’s clubfoot correction process makes baby wearing a chore anyway, and reducing effort in other ways helped a lot.

@juliagao 10 ай бұрын

Appreciate you making this video! I've used some of the wraps for baby #1 before but still keep forgetting how... Would you also do a video about some of the things you need to buy vs which items can be reused for baby #2? Thank you!

Great tutorial! I have a solly wrap and loved it, especially in the first 2 months. I have never had a woven wrap. How different is it? Do you wrap the same way or does it have different ways to wrap?

@heather9130 10 ай бұрын

This is a great video! I was so overwhelmed and afraid of hurting my newborn with the wrap. He HATED being wrapped, he always fought unless he was really sleepy. It made me think I was hurting him. I'm expecting #2 and feeling so much more confident this time around. I'm gonna wear that baby all the dang time.

This is so great! Do you have any advice for how to keep the baby from overheating while wearing them? Our 2 week old always gets so sweaty and hot after like half an hour😢

Look at Bo, he is so cute! 😍 Thanks for this awesome tutorial, just what I needed - trying to practice with a teddy at 39w :D Just be sure: so for a newborn I would do exactly the same, but not let his legs dangle, but keep them in the middle support piece, right? (But still in the M shape) Thank you for all the lovely content ❤

Amazing video! The only thing I would say is that it is recommended to not put your baby in a wrap while wearing sleepers or footie PJs.

@Zoe-hk5kq 10 ай бұрын

Can you explain why? Thanks!

@shelbeh 10 ай бұрын

@@Zoe-hk5kq apparently footie pjs can cause circulation to cut off in the feet due to the pulling of fabric at the crotch (when they're sitting in the wrap). Just being mindful of how their feet are positioned and it shouldn't be a problem.

@phoenix.belle. 10 ай бұрын

@@shelbeh And if you're able size up in the footie pj before putting them in a wrap!

@RaquelSilva-dd3to 10 ай бұрын

My baby was small too and I carried him in the solly wrap. Just make sure it’s tight to give support to baby and also high (in that “kissable” range). He loved it and would always fall asleep in the wrap.

I know it's a bit of a "taboo topic", but could you and your husband please do a video on THC/marijuana and breastfeeding/pregnancy? I know a lot of women who were using it medically before/after baby to help them with long term issues and none of them ever feel comfortable talking about it at appointments due to the stigma surrounding it! It would be incredible to hear about the topic from a medical viewpoint of harmful effects, breastmilk contamination, etc without the fear of being reported or judged for asking questions of your provider

Emily Oster touches on this in the updated version of her book Expecting Better. Unfortunately the data is still really limited and the studies on it aren’t very good yet. There is some evidence that it may be associated with higher rates of preterm birth, but it’s not conclusive.

nice video but i really think you should try to condense any kind of instructional content to its minimal form factor. this would have been even better for me if it was 3-4 minutes

I’ve tried a lot with my now 4 month old, but it never got nice, not sure if it’s because I am bigger, the fabric never stays right. I watched maaaany tutorials 🥲 maybe I’ll try again, but so far no luck
