I'm hoping for some guidance regarding size and different babywearing positions...
My little guy is now 9 weeks old. At his two-month checkup, he weighed 14 pounds and was 24 inches long. He really loves being in the Moby, but only in the upright position, so I've been wearing him in the newborn hug hold. But lately it seems like he's just too long for that; he's started pushing down with his legs a lot when I have him in that hold. Since he won't do the cradle hold and I have to be able to put him in the wrap on my own, it seems like the only other possible option is the regular hug hold. But, that would mean him sitting with his legs a little spread. Given his size, is it too early for that in the Moby?
We also use the Ergo, and he's outgrown the infant insert, but I still put him inside frog-legged using the infant insert cushion, which seems to work well.
Any input is appreciated! Thanks!
