Did your DH 'wear' your baby?

[Hillbeans]

Our first son hated his snugli, so we didn't even bother getting one for the new baby. He would walk and hold the baby though and/or push the stroller.

Also, anytime we're at WDW, he pretty much "wears" our oldest son on his shoulders the whole trip.

Yes DH used the snugli occasionally.

No. DH has a bad back.

DH did when Russ was little, but now Russ hates being confined to us. He goes into massive kicking mode when in the Snugli! So I only do it in places where we really can't take the stroller. When DH gets home, I'm sure he'll want to do hikes and have no problem carrying Russ. (Something about months away from your baby!)

DH was the only one to wear DK's. We also bought the navy blue Bjorn just for that reason, so it would be "manly". My favorite memories of DH and DS in the Bjorn are the two of them stolling the sand at Delray Beach and me on the balcony just having mommy time just watching them.

Yes, we both wore DD alot, she was tiny little thing. DS #1 was a load, 20lbs by 3 mos. we didn't wear him, he was just too big, lol. Noah, we've only worn once and that was dh. I've been thinking about getting the hip sling for him though, especially for our trip to WDW.

We had a sling, and I wore #1 a couple of times -- she never really took to the sling, though. She was 9mo old when we got her, and wasn't used to it, I guess. Besides which, she always wanted to look around, especially at the ground. I got the strangest looks from the good people in Nanning as I carried her around under my arm, like a football -- but it was what she wanted, I swear -- she'd push herself down that way! :

#2 didn't like me at first, and she was almost two anyway, so it wasn't an issue.

Dh wore the baby bijorn all the time. Ds wanted to held 24/7 for the first 4 months of his life, the baby bijorn was a life saver!

DH doesn't wear the baby but he'll do pretty much any other baby care tasks so I don't give him a hard time. Besides, I love wearing her so I don't want to share .
