I really, really want to bring Mary EllaRoo back. She was my first wrap, and my favorite. She’s cradled all three of my babies. And I get asked about her all the time. No, sorry, this wrap was discontinued. So what would it take to get Mary made again? *
I love a good meeting of the moms! Some of the best people are moms! And babies, too, of course! Today we got together to play with wraps. Sam videotaped Tara and I getting her charming little 10 month old wrapped up while nursing. I rarely do a cradle carry,
A Babywearing Christmas just makes sense – how else are you going to be able to do all the fun things that make the holidays so great? How else is baby going to get to be involved in so many fun things? If you want to go all out of

Storchenwiege released three new Leo colors in October. Named after flowers, and representing soft and lovely colors like dusky petals in the garden, these wraps are just in time to keep us remembering those lovely blooms during the winter! Storchenwiege continues to come out with new Leo
How will wearing your baby affect the little guy’s (or girl’s) relationship with older siblings? Wearing your baby is likely to minimize sibling rivalry because it makes you, the mommy (or daddy), more available for your toddler or older child. You can still tie shoes, turn the pages of
Is it a good idea to wrap up someone else’s baby when you are caring for them? What about when your baby or toddler is with grandma, the babysitter, or at daycare–should you encourage those people to wrap your baby? Yes! A baby wrap is a safe, warm, known
You should always talk to your care provider, but most women who are accustomed to wrapping their toddlers, can continue to do so safely throughout pregnancy. Pregnancy is not a good time to start a new activity that may be strenuous on your body. But it is generally agreed that
Last year we had a costume contest on the facebook page: see the photos! Let’s do it again! My “baby” is 18 months, and as I’m not planning to have any more, this may be my last babywearing Halloween! Last year he and I were a two-headed monster. It was
I donate a wrap every month to a babywearing group around the globe to add to their lending library so that their local members can try out new carriers and learn about wrapping. Now I’ve had another idea. Everyone who buys a personal wrap from my woven wrap store, will

Again, I’m having trouble restraining myself to donate to just one babywearing group per month. I asked how many woven wraps were to be found in groups’ lending libraries, and found there are far too many without wraps. I’ve chosen 3 groups to send a wrap to this month, and
We’ve talked about all the benefits of babywearing. Benefits to baby’s growth and happiness, benefits to parents’ taking care of themselves, their homes, their other commitments, and their own happiness. What about other kids?

The layaway program is designed to hold a wrap for you while you make payments towards it. In this way, a big ticket item becomes more affordable. It can also help prevent unreasonable credit card bills after an extravagant Christmas season! I’ve put a lot of thought into these terms.
About 3 weeks ago I decided to night wean my 17 month old son. I decided in the middle of the night and I began immediately. I had been sitting up, nursing him for about two hours. I’m not even kidding. He wouldn’t stop. He didn’t fall asleep. It was
