Sorry for poor quality! I am going to make a plan for next time! Involving a microphone and hopefully a bit more bandwidth! In the meantime I have rerecorded the chat and am uploading it later today!!
Did not know that a carrier like that could do a hip carry! I’ve been using a ring sling for a hip carry but found I’m having to lean to the side a lot and it’s giving me neck and shoulder tension, and it’s a thick fabric. Would love to know if it’s safe to use wraps for back carries and also how to support the necks of bigger babies (mine is 8mo) when they sleep. And I am curious about cooler, lighter weight fabrics 😂 thank you!
Hi Steph, thank you for your questions! You can use many buckle carriers on the side like this, although it depends on the carrier and the buckle placement. But if you can cross the straps across your back you can hip carry. For all your other questions I can definitely help - i offer online consultations where we could meet online and we could go through tweaks to improve comfort with your ring sling, explore back carries and lighterweight options.
