I was thinking along those lines.

You can't wear a baby while having an IUD inserted.

Or can you??? I either need to line up childcare or cross my fingers that he'll enjoy the carseat for that appointment. (Not very likely.)

Okay, so no roller-coasters, no piloting a plane.

But I meant, in Asia, there are special women's jails, yes for criminals (usually prostitutes who turn to the profession because they are extremely poor) and women are allowed to have their children in there.

So we'll say, go to jail in the United States and some other countries, shall we?

You get the points but I get points for rebuttal as well.

You can't (legally and safely) Drive a car while baby wearing.

I wore DD on an airplane. I also wore her on several rides at Disneyland, including Pirates with the drops. She thought those were fun.

I've hunted while baby wearing. DD was in a back carry with ear protection on. Not to be rude... but ducks don't shoot back.

I don't see any reason why you could not back carry while praticiing archery. It would probly mess up your aim, but otherwise I don't see the danger.

while wasing windows on a highrise by scafolding or by rope
construction worker, fireman, policeman,in jail:lol
go down a waterslide (the kind that is in to a deep end pool where you go under the water)
sun bathe or in a tanning bed
get a full body wax
deep sea diving

here is my dark side you cant babywear if you are a "streetworker":

shoveling snow OH wait i have done that
having fun while bw or bf is ok as long as dc is sleeping (both my kids are use to being shaken i have a habit of shaking my leg so this is how i put them to sleep in the bed i end up shaking the whole bed)

What other tests? Bloodwork would be fine.

I guess the jail one has been rebutted, but Canada has or at least use to have, jails like that.

Now I've never gotten a full body was, much less while babywearing, but I can wear her so that she isn't covering any hair. I do NOT have hair on my chest or back!

You can't babywear while ironing. (oh how I wish you could. it'd make my life easier)

You can't babywear while cooking, like frying bacon or stuff like that.

:still giggling

(tee hee)

Seriously, though, don't you think that firearms are a little dangerous in general? Like, in the extremely unlikely event of a misfire or Cheney-like incident? I'm not saying don't hunt, I personally believe hunting is much better than buying meat at the store, but... with a baby on the back? Though, this may be cultural. I'm really wary to advocate babywearing while using a firearm.

I've done both with babe sleeping on my back.

[EdnaMarie]

Frying bacon, with all the grease splatters? Is that really safe? I don't iron because I have a horror of dropping the iron or getting electrocuted or something (it's a strong current).

I would like some expert moderation on these ones. Maybe for a super-experienced cook and babywearer, the ironing, but bacon? Baking bread, possibly. Experts- help!

You can't shower while babywearing. (wrong, I have a shower sling and ahve done it many times).

oooh, where do you get a shower sling?

I bet you can't do inverted yoga poses such as headstand while bwing!

yep done frying with dc on back and fully covered front carry in a sling with a long tail flip the tail over ds to cover him with it so it is safe and bread making yep i can do that i got a bread machine : :

[Gumby]

turnipmama you beat me to it--inversions

how about...

you cant wear the baby while doing bikram yoga (maybe?)

or in the sauna

let's see if i can convey this... you can't bw if you are in a human wheelbarrow race and you are the wheelbarrow

you can't fence

i plan on showering with mine once she's bigger; i only started wearing my 12 d/o a few days ago

nak

[Merisong]

Ok I wanna play!

You cant put on a bra or get fitted for one properly.

You cant get a dress marked for hemming because the carrier would make the dress hemline fall different (unless you *wanted* the hemline to be even when bwing...) now a skirt you could if the carrier was high enough to not touch the skirt nor effect teh way you stand...

You cant pee a baby (as in Elimination Communication) while wearing him.. OH WAIT YOU CAN!!! I did it once!!! LOL ask me how and I will explain it! (do I get points for that one even though I refuted my own?? please? pretty please?)

You cant (shouldnt) paint an inclosed room (as in fumes) while bwing ditto for all those other chemicals that say *well ventilated* on the lable or recommend wearing a mask etc.

You cant weigh yourself or baby while bwing (you cant count taking baby off and weigh yourself or baby separately and doing the math.. cos you wouldnt be bwing then!)

This is fun!

[pixiepunk]

you can't wear 2 babies in a single sling - you totally can. in fact i think gypsymama has pictures of a toddler and an infant in the same wrap - one in front, one in back.

you can't mow the grass - a good friend of mine does this all the time. with a riding lawnmower, and ear protection for the baby.

we would never eat if i couldn't babywear while cooking

you can't hang christmas lights - i did this. i'll see if i have a picture...

you can't go skiing - i don't see why you couldn't go cross-country skiing. in fact, i know there's a gal over at the babywearer that has pictures of her cross-country skiing w/baby on her back.

ETA - i'm all for hunting, heck if it weren't for FIL hunting our freezer would be half empty, but i think it's extremely dangerous to have a small child anywhere nearby while using a firearm. accidents happen, guns malfunction.

[EdnaMarie]

Okay, so cross-country and skate skiing yes, downhill skiing- er no.

Ladies, I'm going to tally up the points sometime tomorrow. It might take me a long time. All unresolved debates (hunting, cooking bacon etc.) will be left unresolved and no points will go to anyone. I'm sorry but I just feel that allocating points would be advocating that and I don't want to do that. However we could start separate threads on those.

P.S. I will second the "walk in the pitch dark". Our electricity goes out all the time at night and it's MUCH safer to have my baby on me than to go walking about with her somewhere on the floor. We both feel much more secure and I am able to light candles without her crying or anything.

when our power goes out i feel safer walking with the candle not lit and light it when i reach where i am going there ds wants to touch the flame now that is not safe not having him on me walking in the dark

[EdnaMarie]

Okay, obviously your power does not go out that often.

We have candles with an emergency box of matches, and an emergency flashlight, in every single room of the house. There is not walking with candles. My DD would also want to touch the flame.

lol that is not even possible here dd keeps stealing the flashlights and killing the batterys and she snuck a box of maches so that was the end to that now they all are in spots she cant reach more so she has not noticed yet have had the fire talk but not taking any chances

[EdnaMarie]

Oh, I think that would have to be non-negotiable in our house. It really is a danger not to have light available. I have really been on DH about using matches for other purposes (okay, smoking but not in the house). Our matches and candles are all high up anyway, but supposing she could reach them, she'd have to learn to deal with "no".

[twopinknoblue]

OK, I'll play........


You can't clean your gutters while wearing your baby

You can't (or at least shouldn't) wear your baby while climbing trees
