Wearing your baby shouldn't wear you out. Whether you’re babywearing for five minutes or five hours, this episode is your go-to guide for choosing and using a baby carrier that supports both you and your little one.
In this episode I dive into everything you need to know—from types of carriers to ergonomic tips—so you can move through your day without backaches, shoulder pain, or frustration.
