I'm right handed. Carrying/cradling on the right feels weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634573 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:48:07 +0000 DillonLion 634573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the left so my right hand is free! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634516 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:36:11 +0000 yerpie110 634516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I typically carry with my left and although I'm right-handed, I think it's also because my left arm is stronger. I do try to carry her in my right arm when I remember! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634502 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:34:17 +0000 Mrs. Twine 634502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm right-handed and carry on the right typically. I have some pretty tight muscles on the left shoulder to compensate. I hate that feeling! I've been doing lots more back carries lately as I have been unilaterally sore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634496 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:33:20 +0000 lindseykaye 634496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I carry on the right (and am right handed) and my husband carries on the left (he is a lefty). Funny that some people are the opposite! I figure I'm comfortable this way because I'm stronger/more confident with my right. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634485 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:32:12 +0000 heartonastring 634485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I seem to only view things through the lens of pregnancy right now, so I was totally about to respond by saying that I can feel a bum on the right side of my belly. But now I realize that's not what you meant :)</p> <p>Don't have my own baby yet (well, I do, but not outside of my belly!), but when I carry babies I tend toward my right hip. I'm right handed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634484 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:32:12 +0000 Bao 634484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On the right mostly, but if that side gets tired I will switch. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634482 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:32:09 +0000 Weagle 634482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Left. Even though I'm left-handed, I do pretty much everything except write with my right hand. I try to carry her on the right when I remember so that my arms will get an equal workout :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634481 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:31:11 +0000 lemondrop 634481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always on the right, even my husband who is a lefty. Our boy hates being carried on the left! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634478 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:30:15 +0000 LaughLines 634478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have a baby yet but whenever I'm around babies I always carry them on my left hip or hold them with my left arm. It feels MUCH more comfortable to me, and I also think it's because I'm right handed. Hopefully once I have a baby of my own I can "learn" to carry him/her on my right side, too :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634477 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:29:57 +0000 skibobrown 634477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When she was a little baby, I would cradle her in my arms with her head always in the crook of my left elbow. Now that She is a big baby, I almost always hold her in my right arm b/c it is stronger, and she is *heavy*! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634473 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:29:06 +0000 mrsmenow 634473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: yep the left so I can use my right hand </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-side-do-you-carry-your-lo#post-634471 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:28:24 +0000 mrsjyw 634471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>dh and i've noticed recently that we both hold DS on our left side more. don't know if that's our righthandedness related or if DS just prefers that side. </p> <p>either way, my left shoulder is killing me today! :P </p>
