This month's installment of Carry of the Month from Babywearing International of Hampton Roads talks about Soft Structured Carriers (SSCs). There are dozens of SSCs on the market, but there is basic safety information that holds true regardless of the specific brand.

This is our second installment of Carry of the Month from Babywearing International of Hampton Roads. This month's feature guides you through wearing a woven wrap in the Ruck Back Carry. This is the quickest back carry and is great for a short trips.

Beginning this month we will have a monthly babywearing feature from our friends at Babywearing International of Hampton Roads. This month's post focuses on a tummy to tummy carry in a ring sling. Ring slings are recommended to beginners so often we thought we would take a month to really focus on these versatile carriers. Ring slings make great beginner carriers but sometimes getting them just right can be really tricky. They are perfect for tummy carries, hip carries, and even a quick back carry!!

I make my decision to use cloth diapers well-known whenever possible and when people see my daughter's adorable fluffy butt, there is one inevitable question that is always asked: “What do you do with the poop?”

Okay, so you’ve decided to cloth diaper probably because you know you’ll save thousands doing so not to mention the fact that you’re helping the environment and your baby’s precious skin.  But what next?  What does cloth diapering your baby entail?

The stash. You need a stash of diapers that will suit your cloth diapering needs.  The amount of diapers you should have will depend upon whether or not you will be using cloth diapers full time or part time.  A newborn will soil 8-12 diapers a day and an older child will soil 6-8 diapers a day.  I would suggest that you need enough cloth diapers to get you through at least two days of diaper changes if you’re going to cloth diaper full time.  If you are going to do it part time, any number of cloth diapers will help keep your disposable diaper bill down.  Even if you only use three cloth diapers a day, that means you won’t have to buy 90 disposables that month.

...and a few money saving idea to get you started. This is my first venture into cloth diapering and so far it has been a joy!  I started my cloth diaper stash with a few hand me down pocket diapers and have added a few Flips, cotton prefolds and homemade fleece liners.

Both the Moby Wrap and Sleepy Wrap carriers are perfect for carrying small babies through 35lb toddlers.  With the Moby Wrap or Sleepy Wrap you can wear baby in a safe and secure fashion.  There are a variety of ways to wrap the Moby or Sleepy Wrap and it's a One-Size fits most carrier which means daddy can use it too!

Before this review, I want to thank Diaper Junction for their generosity; I can't recall the last time I received such great customer service from an online source and more than that-such AWESOME FREEBIES!!!

I have tried the FREE Flip One Size Diaper System I won and am very impressed.
