I have had a soft carrier since before Harper was born. We tried it a few times, but it's uncomfortable for me and she didn't like it much. I thought that maybe baby wearing just wasn't for us. Recently I've been looking into it more because with two babies who can't walk yet I'm sure it would make my life easier. Tonight I bought a Moby wrap from another mommy on base and when we got home I put it on and Harper immediately settled right into it. It was like she had been sitting in one of those all her life. And what a difference it was for me! It was more comfortable in absolutely every way than my old carrier with straps and buckles everywhere. It felt a little weird having Harper sit right on my baby (what's a word for huge bump?), but I'm looking forward to trying it out tomorrow when I'm trying to get things done around the house.
Today I also purchased 17 Alva diapers for an insanely low price from one of the fluff mommies on base. I threw them all in the wash for a quick run through and they're drying downstairs right now. I think I now have enough diapers to do both babies at the same time! I don't know how I feel about that... It's certainly a relief to know that one more thing for Kylie is taken care of, but that also means I might have to stop buying new diapers! What will I do with myself?! I guess I'll just have to start putting more of my energy into getting better at making diapers, so I'm still sort of getting new ones without spending all the money. Too bad the ones I make aren't nearly as cute as the ones I buy.
