I think she's Russian lol Mrs. Pen on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-238189 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 12:29:30 +0000 Mrs. Pen 238189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @pastemoo: yeah I agree. I mean I'm not a fan of bjorns either, but you are doing right by just making sure he's getting checked out consistently and I would never fault another mom for carrying her baby! You're totally right - carrying your baby - no matter what in - is so much better than leaving them in the carseat. I know my son can only take so much of the carseat before he just needs the comfort and love of being held! well I just changed my instagram to private! no more strangers lol @purrpletulips: haha yeah... what is it about moms that they feel the need to share their "wisdom" with the rest of the world and judge others for not parenting the way THEY think is best... seriously - we face enough opposition as it is trying to make the best decisions for our kid - we don't need judgment on top of it! pastemoo on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-238185 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 12:25:47 +0000 pastemoo 238185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Coco Bee: This bugs me, too. I mean, OK, so maybe my baby bjorn make cause hip displaysia when I have to loosen the bottom strap, but would you rather me leave the baby in the carseat or carry him? Seriously, I go to the doctor and they check his joints every time. If something starts going wrong, I will change things, but really, people have been carrying babies in all kinds of contraptions since time immemorial. That sucks. I'm sorry a stranger commented on your photo! purrpletulips on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-238166 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 12:19:12 +0000 purrpletulips 238166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I agree that it is rude to comment on a stranger's photo (especially if a negative comment). I am on a babywearing forum and it is shocking the comments (um, they often refer to them as suggestions) that people both make and receive about babywearing. I wonder if the person in question thought that you were using a Baby Bjorn? Although I know they are not the best carrier I have never commented on someone else's choice in using one, just not my place to do so. sorrycharlie on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-238077 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 11:39:28 +0000 sorrycharlie 238077@https://boards.hellobee.com/ how creepy! I never had strangers comment on my pictures before. I recently went private because a girl I know (and do not get along with) was using instagram to creep on me. weirddd! I set mine to private, but follow a ton of hellobee'rs, so if you see me (aego**) that's just me! :) Mrsbells on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-237948 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 10:51:22 +0000 Mrsbells 237948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Coco Bee: Yeah she was definitely out of line.

I'll get on that Mrs. Pen on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-237943 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 10:49:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 237943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrsbells: well I assume she just thinks that the ergo is the only good one?? And I agree that some carriers aren't good - but I do know the beco is - but even aside from that I would never stalk a strangers pictures and tell her that she's carrying her baby wrong!

Definitely go private! mediagirl on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-237923 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 10:40:28 +0000 mediagirl 237923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Coco Bee: Yup. People just have to request to follow your pictures. Your current followers will still be able to see your pictures. You can go through those and block people if you don't know who they are (like if this fool is following you). I figured since 90% of my photos are of my lo, I would keep mine private.

Besides its none of her business. Some people are so rude But I do agree that some carriers arent the best for the baby, aside from our ergo we were gifted a baby bjorn, and I dont think they are the best for the baby because of the way the baby hangs in it, but my baby loves it so I use it for now until she grows into the ergo Mrs. Pen on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-237900 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 10:33:50 +0000 Mrs. Pen 237900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Mrsdaredevil: aww thanks!! I was so proud of myself and there she goes bursting my bubble lol @mediagirl: that's not a bad idea... so then they're only seen by your approved friends? @highwire: hahahaha yeah RIGHT?!? @PBandBaseball: I know... it just never ends. I do feel like people are more bold on the internet though, I've had very few people try to "correct" me on how to be a mom in person/public. mediagirl on "If you don't use an ergo - you aren't carrying you baby properly!" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-dont-use-an-ergo-you-arent-carrying-you-baby-properly#post-237890 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 10:30:19 +0000 mediagirl 237890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @Coco Bee: this is why I made my Instagram pictures private.

Do you see any adults walking around with any debilitating physical issues because the carrier they were in as a baby wasn't the "right one"? NO.

So I uploaded a picture of carrying DS on my back in my beco gemini onto Instagram and some stranger commented that unless I had an ergo I'm not carrying my baby properly, "not that contraption." OMG. It made me so mad - I don't even know this person but they felt the need to comment on my picture?! FWIW I did research baby carriers extensively and I know that the Beco is a great carrier and equal to the Ergo!
