You asked, I’ve got the answers… \ud83d\ude42 Here we go:<\/p>\n
I would love to hear what is the most special wrap you own and why. And also how did you start wrapping, did someone introduce you to it? \/ Can you tell us about the day you first wrapped your child?<\/strong> I wrapped my baby boy, went out of my room, upstairs, on the roof-deck of the hospital. There was sun, there was daylight, there was wind, I was out of this sticky building, I had my baby tight and I instantly knew, while looking across the city, that my life has changed – it was like enlightenment. I wanted to go home like this, carry my baby and just go home…<\/p>\n What is your favourite carry?<\/strong> If you didn’t do slings, what would you do?<\/strong> Second, I’m a journalist<\/em> with a further education in public relations<\/em>. I work as a freelancer which means that I am relatively free and independent to work when I want. I do interviews and other articles at a regular base for a local monthly paper. It’s not much, it’s more like pocket money for us but I’m happy with it. Anyway, I invest way more energy in my projects of passion which are Nestw\u00e4rme and my mommy blog, “Mama mal 2<\/em>“, which means something like “mother of two<\/em>“, well, the two will be a three soon. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n The blog is in german whilst Nestw\u00e4rme got pretty international during the past months. It would be a dream to earn money with a blog because it’s really “love what you do<\/em>” but there are too many others (who are better, probably<\/em> \ud83d\ude09 When kids grow older, I guess I’ll have to apply for a permanent position in media business…<\/p>\n What is your husband’s stand on babywearing?<\/strong> I plan to involve him more with babywearing when our baby arrives but it might be hard because I love carrying the little one myself \ud83d\ude00 The only thing he doesn’t like about me babywearing is that I’ve got too many wraps \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
\nThe most special wrap I own is this <\/a>one, woven by Eseasons. Why? Because it was one of my first customs, named after my daughter and OOAK. \ud83d\ude42 And of course, it wraps great. I’ll never sell it!
I found out about babywearing when I was pregnant with my first child, 2010. I read about it in one of my pregnancy<\/a> guidebooks, decided to buy a wrap and took it with me to the hospital to give birth. About 3 days later, after suffering a huge baby blues (breastfeeding<\/a> didn’t work as it should, I lacked sleep a lot, everything was new…<\/em>), one of the midwives finally found the time to show me how to wrap.<\/p>\n
\nI tried a lot of carries but I get back to this every single time with every wrap (that is long enough<\/em>) I wear: Ruck, tied tibetan<\/a>. You might see it in almost every review I do \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
\n“Working<\/em>” as a babywearing counsellor is not more than a passionate hobby. I wouldn’t be able to earn enough money to cover the costs for my range of testing products as well as for my education. That said, I really do something else, too. First of all, I’m a mother, I’m at home for my children.<\/p>\n
\nGood question \ud83d\ude00 I guess he was rather sceptic first, but nevertheless, he also carried or kids<\/a>, just not in a wrap or sling, in a carrier (easier for him<\/em> :D). There also exist a few pictures of him wearing our daughter \ud83d\ude09 I never gave up telling him about the advantages of babywearing and, always when I see someone on the street babywearing, I tell him: “look<\/em>!” \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
