The movement puts the baby to sleep immediately and my toddler has fun dancing around so win win. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082601 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 21:02:33 +0000 littlejoy 2082601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@namaste: Yep! I want a shirt that says: "Babywearing, how shit gets done!" -- I don't think I could have gotten through the first year without my carrier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082254 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:57:13 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2082254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends on her mood. If I wear her on my back, I can get laundry done. But I always have to stand when I wear her or she gets angry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082251 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:54:01 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2082251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meridian: same here! I have been using my tula for at least 4 weeks on my 8 week old, but he pretty much falls asleep in it only when I am moving! I am thinking when he starts looking around more/for longer periods of time, I'll be able to do a bit more. Even cooking isn't enough movement, and stuff like cleaning is really hard unless it requires no up and down movement. I guess we both still need to get a little more used to it! I just bought a ring sling cause I am hoping that's a little more like the feeling of being held, even though the tula is more comfortable for longer amounts of time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082220 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:43:04 +0000 namaste 2082220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pretty much everything! I couldn't get things done without the carrier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082184 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:28:12 +0000 Mae 2082184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO doesn't really like being worn at home much but she is good on my back for like 10-15 min if I need to cook something or vacuum while she is awake (basically the only way to make that happen because she is into EVERYTHING). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082111 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:09:31 +0000 avivoca 2082111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely! I wear her when she's crabby and wants to be held (like when I'm cooking dinner), when we're walking the dog (I've nursed her in the Ergo too), in the store, while vacuuming, and tons of other things. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082089 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:01:41 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2082089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Babywearing is how I get stuff done!<br /> It may take time for him to get used to being worn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082087 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 16:01:13 +0000 blackbird 2082087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E was a crabass last night so i threw her in the ergo while I did dishes and laundry. At 29 weeks pregnant ;) She was good for about...20 min? It's all I needed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-can-you-do-while-baby-wearing#post-2082073 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 15:57:03 +0000 Meridian 2082073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've just started putting LO into the Beco Gemini for short periods of time to get him used to it. He doesn't like it when I sit, or even stand still. So I just walk back and forth around our small condo. Right now I have the laptop on my kitchen counter so I can stand and type, but also sway back and forth while wearing him, haha. </p> <p>Can you actually get things done while baby wearing?? </p>
