Tummy 2 Tummy The Babywearing Instructional

I have a Moby wrap. It covers using 3 other styles of baby carriers as well, but since I have a Moby, I'm focusing on that part of the video. I actually had this video with my first child, but just never got around to watching it. Big mistake! This video shows you many ways to use the Moby that solved a lot of my struggles: how to nurse in the wrap, how to put the wrap on very quickly, how to put the wrap on while holding your child (when you cant or your baby won't let you put them down, )how to use the wrap for back and hip carries (not covered in Moby instructions.) Also discussed type of fabric to use that keeps child cool and child can breath through. My baby would often get too hot in the Moby. After watching this video, I ended up looking up "woven baby wrap" on Internet and purchasing a wrap made of a light cotton gauzy material that is more comfortable for baby. They also describe more variations of the basic wraps thatMoby demonstrates which make it easier to adjust to infants age. I have my 2nd child who is now 6 days old and after using a variation from this video, figured out a carry that gives good head support. Basically women have been using wraps to carry their children for thousands of years. Every struggle you have using a wrap has been experienced and solved by mothers who have come before you. This video taps into this rich trove of wisdom. Essential if you plan to babywear.

I bought this DVD because I am expecting my second child and I am planning on babywearing him very early using the Tibetan rucksack carry. I learned a lot more than I expected, instructions are very clear and each carrier type covered (ring sling, pouches, Asian back carriers, simple pieces of cloth) has interesting features. I had a ring sling and a back carrier for my first child and really liked both but I wanted to know more about babywearing, especially for a newborn and this DVD is a very good resource.

Not a super high quality video but very helpful and informative. I just use the "Simple Pieces of Cloth" section and have honestly never watched the others. So helpful!

This DVD is a life saver. I can now wrap my little one on my back with ease. I can keep my house clean. It is absolutley amazing how my little one immediately falls asleep after being wrapped. So glad this DVD exists.
