#015 The Trials and Tribulations of Carrying a Toddler

March 15, 2018

Here’s what we covered in this episode:

Whether we (Brooke & Angela) are still wearing our 2 & 3 year old’s and how having younger siblings has affected our toddler wearing journey
The carriers we use most with our toddlers
Some babywearing challenges that start to come up when your baby turns into a toddler (heavier, up and down, independence, demanding ups, getting out on their own, being rough, etc)
Some special benefits and joys that come from wearing your toddler in a wrap or carrier (safety in public, portability, tired little legs, happier than in stroller/trolley, unexpected naps, comfort for tantrums/sickness, calming for parent too)
Is it too late to start if you haven’t tried babywearing until toddlerhood?
Is it normal to find it challenging while still loving it?
Tips on finding a carrier that is suitable for toddlers
Knowing when to use your carrier and when to let them walk/ride/run

You’ve got this, mama!
