DH prefers to leave her in the seat, but I much prefer to wear her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406597 Fri, 01 Jan 2016 14:49:11 +0000 Aandmklover 2406597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we are almost always wearing one especially if we have both kids and we are alone. Even if we are both there my husband will wear our one year old. (Because they both love it) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406491 Fri, 01 Jan 2016 10:31:38 +0000 youboots 2406491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not always. But if DD is tired or needs a nap then yes. Usually I do big trips with DH. If we are just getting a bag of groceries I take her in her stroller the 6 blocks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406445 Fri, 01 Jan 2016 03:50:08 +0000 Kemma 2406445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pink: I felt like a total winner the day I managed TWO car-Ergo-car transfers!</p> <p>My wee guy was only in a capsule for 2-3 weeks so I wore him while grocery shopping till he was about eight months old. He's now big enough to sit in the cart next to his sister so I've only been wearing him for shorter trips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406438 Fri, 01 Jan 2016 02:26:42 +0000 AprilFool 2406438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: For a minute there I thought you were going to wear three babies at once and was :shocked: but then I realised you meant number three. Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406429 Fri, 01 Jan 2016 01:58:07 +0000 Mrs. Pink 2406429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! It's been a bit since I'm pregnant and she's back striking-- front carries are tough with a bump!</p> <p>She likes to go between walking/holding my hand, sitting in the cart and being worn so we mostly SSC</p> <p>She still sleeps in the carrier and if she's asleep in her car seat I can sometimes get her into the carrier, through the store and back into the car without waking her up! I've managed 2 different stores in a trip this way, but it was a really good day haha </p> [attach=1883/16/o09i0v.450x600.image.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406342 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 21:36:24 +0000 FannyMae 2406342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yep, I put my boba on before I leave the house, and then just pop her into it when we get to the shops. she tends to fall right asleep with all the walking up and down the aisles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping/page/2#post-2406317 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 20:50:16 +0000 Purpledaisy 2406317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littleveesmommy: cute picture! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406195 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 18:05:46 +0000 littleveesmommy 2406195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes!!! We love Babywearing at all times and it helps keep hands (and eyes) free during shopping. </p> [attach=713/15/o08w5m.450x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406186 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 17:52:05 +0000 Purpledaisy 2406186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did until she could sit up in the cart by herself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406067 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 15:21:49 +0000 Torchwood 2406067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH normally does the shopping without us, but if LO goes we wear her. We don't have a bucket seat, and she can't sit up consistently yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406064 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 15:17:19 +0000 MenagerieMama 2406064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did until she was big enough to sit in the cart - and she prefers that. Easier to see everything and grab at groceries obviously! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406062 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 15:13:50 +0000 mfa_lady 2406062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I ended up carrier-less in Target the other day and IT. WAS. A. MISTAKE. It's all fun and games with a baby riding in the cart until she decides she's over it. Haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406041 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 14:57:52 +0000 babynumber1 2406041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, otherwise she takes up too much space in her seat. We also have a 3 1/2 year old that sits in the cart. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406038 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 14:56:30 +0000 Mae 2406038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>always, even now at 19 mo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406037 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 14:56:15 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2406037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to but now my belly is too big. I'll definitely be wearing three to the grocery store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2406003 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 14:26:45 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2406003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes - the infant bucket takes up too much space in the cart. Although now she can ride in the cart seat so I do that if she's awake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405987 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 14:10:20 +0000 Peasinapod 2405987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I pretty much always wear her . She's 15 months so she could ride in the cart but she likes to be held so she'd just ask to be picked up anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405971 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:50:17 +0000 PawPrints 2405971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I'm walking to the grocery, I just put her in the stroller and use the under-stroller basket as my cart. If I have driven to the grocery, then I wear her and push a regular grocery cart. I've never put a car seat into a grocery cart. </p> <p>Though come to think of it, she may be big enough now that I could just let her sit in the grocery cart!</p> <p>Most of the time though, DH gets the week's groceries after DD goes to bed on Monday evenings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405932 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:27:18 +0000 JerricaBenton 2405932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always for the first year. It was the best! So comfy and so much easier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405920 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:15:53 +0000 twodoghouse 2405920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on which store I go to. A couple places have nice double carts, so we do that. Some places (Target is the worst!) have terrible, clunky double carts, so I wear one baby on my back and put the other in a regular cart. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405915 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:14:22 +0000 Corduroy 2405915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always. I tried shopping once without a carrier. DS was about a month and cried the whole (short) time. Three people came up and told me it gets better. I was too embarrassed to tell them he wasn't my first baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405911 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:11:44 +0000 MamaBehr 2405911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always. I hate using the germy carts, but my two year old has to ride while I wear the baby. I wore my two year old until I was too pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405905 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 13:05:54 +0000 LindsayLou 2405905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every time. She's not a fan of her bucket seat, but loves being worn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405839 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 12:17:01 +0000 yin 2405839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore LO2 every time we went grocery shopping. It was easier to be hands free. Most of the time it was an easy nap for him too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405838 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 12:16:16 +0000 californiadreams 2405838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i used to when he was a baby </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405833 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 12:12:45 +0000 ineebee 2405833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I clicked his bucket seat into the stroller and stuffed groceries in the basket underneath until about 3-4 months when he started to get bothered being in it too long. After that, I've been babywearing in our sling, and it's great! Now at 9mo, I tried putting him in the seat, but it weirded him out a little. He prefers the sling at this point. I don't mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405826 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 12:07:02 +0000 MamaChin 2405826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Never with LO1, I would shop with his snap n go in the beginning then later he would sit in the cart. Once LO2 came along I wore her while the big one sat in the cart since I solo parent most of the time. Now they're 3 and almost 2 it's hard to shop with them by myself so I only go while they're at daycare or to stores with double seater carts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405794 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 11:46:04 +0000 erinbaderin 2405794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely - way too much hassle to have the bucket seat taking up the whole top of the cart. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-babywear-when-you-go-grocery-shopping#post-2405791 Thu, 31 Dec 2015 11:45:16 +0000 coopsmama 2405791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. But I don't really like baby wearing. </p>
