Best carrier/positions for 2-3 month old?

[babygirlsmama]

Since she was born, I have been wearing our daughter frequently and she and I both seemed to love it. So far, we have used a Moby and a pouch sling. She is starting to seem uncomfortable and gets upset after a while in either. So, I am looking for suggestions for this phase. Thanks!

Our LO is 3 1/2 mos. and we LOVE our Mei Tai!

Which carries are you using currently. My dd is 15 weeks old and is liking legs out positions more than legs in these days. I have been doing the regular hug hold with the Moby.

definitely try upright positions, not cradle positions. for the pouch, try tummy to tummy upright positions as well as buddha -- legs crossed facing outwards. for the wrap, try the hug hold and the joey hold (facing outwards). Just make sure she's securely in there so she won't go pitching forwards.

My baby girl is 3 1/2 months old, but she is really chunky baby (over 17lbs!), and she's been enjoying mei tai (front carry - facing me), and I have one with adjustable bottom, so it can fit her perfectly.

Fleece pouch - we tried hip carry and that was great, also forward facing, and she really enjoyed that (but her legs were in a buddha position), and facing me, with legs out, and that was great, too.

I'm just learning wrapping, and that is fun (woven wraps, very supportive)!

Definitely follow your daughter's lead, and try new carriers/positions at home first, when she is happy & fed & freshly changed, but keep moving around, and bouncing if needed - that helped me.

Take care, HTH!
