Your LO's bum goes against one edge of the sling, and then the rest of the fabric you pull up over their back. and adjust over your shoulder. It's actually *really secure* feeling, they basically end up with a little seat of fabric, and are tucked in close against you. Very comfortable for mama too.</p> <p>The videos are probably easier than my explanation! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570571 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 21:47:51 +0000 anonysquire 570571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: which one do you like better?

I put him on my back like piggy back and hold his hands. Then pull up one strap, then the next, settle him in and attach the neck strap.</p> <p>When I take him off, I do one strap at a time and hold his hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570522 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 21:03:33 +0000 DillonLion 570522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Moby and Ktan </p> [attach=288/13/micdpy.600x600.IMG_20121222_212528.jpg] [attach=288/13/micdq0.600x600.IMG_20121214_165742.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570516 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:58:56 +0000 Beebug 570516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: Awesome!

I'm amazed you were able to read the instructions and missed that part- or maybe I'm just amazed that you were able to get that thing on with baby in it without reading the instructions! I had to watch you tube videos to use mine, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570506 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:49:43 +0000 HLK208 570506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Beco Gemini here!

You can even improvise a very safe and secure back hold, just google it. </p> <p>Here is the hug hold, what I called the 'baby' hold. It's good for a few months on, when your baby can hold her head up really well:</p> <p><a href="http://www.mobywrap.com/mw/hug-hold.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.mobywrap.com/mw/hug-hold.htm</a></p> <p>And here is the newborn hold, for the very floppy snugly newborn phase:</p> <p><a href="http://www.mobywrap.com/mw/newborn-hug.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.mobywrap.com/mw/newborn-hug.htm</a></p> <p>I had trouble learning from pictures - I would absolutely suggest that anyone eager to learn about babywearing get instruction from a friend, take a class, go to a shop and ask for help. The ways you fold a soft wrap are complex at first, and can be hard to learn just from a picture or video. But you master them quickly, and babywearing is awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570504 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:48:37 +0000 Beebug 570504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What age did people try back carry for the first time? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570502 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:47:37 +0000 Beebug 570502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: How do you "do" that carry and she not fall out the bottom?</p> <p>I was doing the "sitting cross legged frontward" carry as per the instruction pics here. Pardon her pouty-crying face, she had just finished having a meltdown and I was trying evvvvverything to chill her out, somehow....this worked, lol.</p> <p>We also have the Beco Gemini....which we use the most, but pics of it would be pretty redundant to above! We love the outward facing position and use it the most! Zumba and baby class is so much fun with it! Her legs get in the way a bit, but I'm careful and she loves it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570499 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 20:45:25 +0000 Beebug 570499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: Nice sling!!! </p> [attach=2471/13/miccvp.450x554.IMG-20130115-00561--2-.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-570421 Sat, 16 Feb 2013 19:48:33 +0000 sslm 570421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love this thread!

We have a hot sling, peanut shell and Seven. We usually do a hip carry, or front (especially when she gets sleepy). This is the Seven sling: </p> [attach=1754/13/mic7gi.448x600.sling.jpg] [attach=1754/13/mic7gj.448x600.sling1.jpg] [attach=1754/13/mic7gl.448x600.sling2.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-your-baby-wearing-pictures#post-569727 Fri, 15 Feb 2013 22:46:22 +0000 autumn865 569727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: in ours you can fold the top down when they face front. Does yours have a bib on the inside? I don't have any pics but we might have the same one.
