Babywearing the heavy baby

— January-April 2009

Since I had a baby who weighed nearly twelve pounds at birth and who loved loved loved to be held, I learned some tricks for hauling him around comfortably! These tips can be adapted for any size baby, but I have a heart for all the chunky monkeys out there — and for their parents' backs!

Try out these soft baby carriers, listed in the chronological age order we used them, to carry your baby easily all the way into toddlerhood.

  1. Babywearing the heavy baby: stretchy wrap
  2. Babywearing the heavy baby: ring sling
  3. Babywearing the heavy baby: mei tai
  4. Babywearing the heavy baby: ERGO Baby Carrier
