As you can see, Cora and I are already comfortable with the Moby wrap. However, this year I'm going to try to learn a bunch of other wraps to broaden my "wrapping horizons." Don't get me wrong, I love the Moby, but I want to know MORE! :)
So, last Saturday Cora and I went to a 9:00 a.m. (ouch...) meeting of the Twin Cities "Baby Wearing International" group. It was pretty fun. These ladies have an entire culture they have created, that's for sure! This month I chose an easy wrap--the easiest step up from a Moby, I think. It's a Natibaby woven ring sling. I'm still learning their "language"--boy am I still learning it. I don't understand HALF of what they say on FB, but I'll get there. I am learning that fabric does make a lot of difference--you can get a ring sling for $20, and a ring sling for $300, and there is an actual reason the prices are so different. I'm glad I have this group to help me learn all of this...for $30 a year, with no trial-and-error purchases on my part. :)
Anyway, here is Cora in a ring sling today. She was cranky when I took the pictures, so they aren't the best, but you get the general idea. She is actually not in the sling totally "correct"--you shouldn't be able to see the bottom part of the sling, it should be tucked up under her butt, but again...she was mad and ready to eat.
