My baby is now 11-weeks-old and still doesn't ever want to be put down, even when he's asleep. My partner works from home, and I'm a student doing online work (teacher certification) and work towards my PhD, with occasional part-day subbing. Between the two of us, we've been able to keep him pretty happy. But this week, my partner's had to go to on-site meetings all day plus an hour's commute each way. Yesterday was miserable for me. My ring sling was in the car with my partner, and so the most "down" time I got was pushing the baby in the stroller to go get his brother from school.
Today, I saw my partner's mei tai and decided to give it a try. The baby hasn't liked it for more than five minutes at a time before now, but he stayed in it for an hour or so today, enough time to do a couple chores, go get his brother from school, let me make some phone calls, and then make a snack. Hooray!
