When my daughter was born three years ago, I sadly had not known about the wonderful world of babywearing. I would have loved swaddling her up in my stretchy wrap while her cute little face with the button nose was laying on my chest, sound asleep.
I did, however, discover Babywearing just in time. {and in fact, with the right child! God knew what He was doing. It was all a part of His plan!}
My son, from birth, has been very needy. Always wanting held. Would cry when you would put him down. Extremely attached to me. If I hadn't discovered Babywearing and all of it's benefits, I would have most likely gone insane! {not to mention my family would have never gotten fed, laundry never done, and the house a total mess!}

As a mother, it is my job to soothe my child with a hug. To make them feel safe and secure by my embrace. Babywearing made it all the more easier to get those snuggles in throughout the day...especially with a toddler running around!
I will wipe all tears from your eyes. Revelation 7:1
I will not abandon you. Deuteronomy 4:31
We are still babywearing {at 15 months} when out and about and enjoying every minute of it! The days of snuggling and holding go by so very fast. I am going to embrace them for as long as I can!
Although I am saddened at the fact that I never got to experience the joys of babywearing with my daughter, I am also very grateful that I did discover them with my son, before it was too late altogether!
{If you have any questions about the safety and benefits of babywearing and what type of carrier to choose, please email me or leave a comment below. I love talking about babywearing and helping moms out with this wonderful experience!}

Hi Amy! Im coming over from the Hip Homeschool Hop!! I so would love to be a babywearing Mommy, too bad my kids are 7 and 9. That would be tough to wrap up my 9 year old and tote her around. I would love to turn back time though for sure!!! You have a beautiful blog :)
ReplyDeleteI love babywearing!!! It made mothering so much easier. I followed you here from the HHH
ReplyDeleteI missed out on the whole baby wearing thing. I wish I had known about it when my babies were still babies! I think it's a wonderful thing that allows mama and baby to be close and still let mama get a few things done.
ReplyDeleteJust visiting from the Homeschool Hop. Blessings!

GOod morning and thanks for stopping over to my blog from the Hip Hop today!
ReplyDeleteI was never able to really get the hang of the wraps with the kids and when I tried, I seemed to get too warm...but they are very cute!
Enjoy your day!

Hi! Just visiting from the Hip Homeschool Hop. I so wish I would have done that with my baby (now 3). Although she probably wouldn't have liked it. She was too free and enjoyed moving around on her own. :) Hope you continue to enjoy it!
