  1. My favorite thing about babywearing is that I'm not forced to choose between a task that requires my hands or holding my baby - I can do both!

  2. I really love babywearing because it gets my kids involved with my life. I feel like they aren't just stuck in a stroller or car seat on the ground. I REALLY want to try the onya carrier because it looks really sturdy and good for walking/hiking. ---Rachelle Betow abetow7484@msn.com

  3. I love the snuggles and closeness wearing provides.
    I like my Moby wrap but as Little Miss. I really like the Ergo I borrowed from a friend and would love to have one.

  5. I love the snuggles and the closeness and when he falls asleep on me and we can just cuddle together without my arms falling asleep or getting sore. I can do anything and everything I want to, and he can do it right there with me. He gets interaction with people because he's up at their level, but he can always turn his head in to be away if he wants to, too. I LOVE babywearing!

  10. I've got the kind of baby that only manages to stay asleep while she's being held. The minute she's lain horizontal, her eyes open. Carriers are GREAT for making sure she gets her full nap time.
