how to wear two or more babies

[nevaehsmommy]

I am watching my neices a lot lately.

Dn2 is 5 months and is ONLY happy in a sling or mei tei. She HAS to be held and moving or she is MAADDD- 14 # sits up lightly, head support well

DN1 is 7 months and could care less is she is held or on the floor or in the car seat. She is just happy happy, wakes up smiling goes to sleep smiling . 13# sits well

DD is almost 3 she loves to nurse in a ring sling and tolerates the mei tai. We have a playtex hip hammock that she HATES.


DD is also getting insanley jelious. How do I hold her and the babies. My arms can not hold them anymore.

I have two kiddos.
One 8 months (over 20 pounds) and one 2 and a half years old (28 pounds).

I wear the big one on my back in a MT and the little one in the front with a wrap (I can wear either one in front or back at this point because they are old enough).

I have also worn the big one in the back in a MT or wrap and the little one in a RS.

I have seen two RS, one on each side but I havent done it, but I will admit that I am not a huge fan of RS anyways for older kiddos.

I would often have a baby in a back carry when they were younger. Then you can either wear a front carrier, hold the other two or wear two carriers and hold one. (I've done all three arrangements. LOL)

I always used MTs, SSCs and wraps but I'm sure a RS would be similar. Put whomever you think will be there longest onto the back first and then put on the other carrier.
