If people stop you, you can say the carrier is really heavy and you need to keep going. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457115 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:32:21 +0000 MsLipGloss 1457115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would wear her!</p> <p>ETA: It will leave your hands free to *defend* if need be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457107 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:27:55 +0000 bookwormmama 1457107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think people would be more likely to touch her in the car seat. If you have a wrap style carrier it would be hard for people to touch her without touching you so they might feel less comfortable touching her without asking. I know when co-workers brought babies in car seats to work everyone always touches/grabs their hands/feet.</p> <p>Although if you have a cover you could always say she's sleeping so that people don't try to touch or bother her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457103 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:25:04 +0000 lamariniere 1457103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I carried DD in the stroller bassinet the first few times I picked up DS from daycare after she was born. (No car.) But the kids come out into a hallway where their coats and shoes are, so I only see a few, if any, when I pick up DS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457102 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:24:33 +0000 Weagle 1457102@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wear. I felt like people were more likely to touch LO in the car seat. And when wearing you can kind of turn away or cover her head a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457097 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:22:48 +0000 Smurfette 1457097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Carry but don't take out of the car seat </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-carry-or-wear#post-1457096 Fri, 28 Feb 2014 08:21:52 +0000 matador84 1457096@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dropping DS off at daycare for the first time today. I know everyone there wants to see the newborn. Would it be better to carry her in with the car seat canopy or wear her in in a wrap? Wwyd? Since she's only a week I'm really trying to shield her especially at a daycare! </p>
