@@cloud5887 congrats it’s an incredible journey holding your child for the first time is like nothing else. Don’t over think it basically the first few months you will be changing, feeding your baby every two hours I recommend doing that in shifts with your partner. Just try to be as helpful to your wife as you can a lot of things naturally fall on her so basically support her so she can care for the baby. Best of luck.
Thank you for reminding me about this trick. I use to wear my firstborn all the time and he loved it. Luckily, my 2nd son is not as fuzzy, but it's definitely a great way to bond.
It seems to also govern your baby a visual of yourself OR what you might be doing, helping them learn to interact with stuff in front of them in my opinion.
My kid turned 18 last year (time both drags and goes too quickly, especially after you're 35). This suggestion is great because it's a few wins in one effort. First, you know where your baby is and it leaves your hands free. It definitely helps with bonding (I still recommend skin on skin contact when they are really small and you can kick back in your chair). It also scores points with Mom as you give her a break and you can earn brownie points if she is nice. This also is a good habit and being completely honest, this stage of a child being an infant goes by pretty quickly. This helps you be there for more of it with minimal effort.😎👍✨
You can try something that's a hybrid like the Boppy Comfortfit. It's not quite as supportive as a structured carrier but may be more flexible to fit more bodies. The poppy is compact and portable and has been a go to in our family for both kids. -Ben
@@KindlyChristina I mean if the legs are hanging loose for a long time it causes blood pressure problems. Even for adults. I don't know about babies, should be the same...
@@robrob4730 Not sure on that to be honest. I mean I don’t think a baby should be worn in it all day without repositioning but from what i’ve seen online, most people are concerned about brands that are too tight and constrict blood flow. but babies are also incredibly resilient and smaller than mature humans so blood flow may be different for them 🤷🏼♀️ but interesting point!
My wife purchased that godly contraption 4moms swing, I can count on my fingers how many times its been used to not even justify the cost. Don't get it she prefers to be held
