So we've been using the Bjorn when we leave the house since Adrian was born. I inherited all these fabulous wraps from friends and family and I was sure I would use them all. They are all different colors and materials and I've dreamed of sporting by babe in them all.
Yesterday I decided to try my lavender Moby wrap to go for my extended walk. I put him in the newborn hold and left. The weather was gorgeous. Almost 70 degrees in March. I decided to do something for myself and went to DSW to look for some shoes. Adrian slept the whole way there and most of the time in the shoe store. I quickly realized there was no way I could try on shoes with a baby in tow, so we left.
And that's when sh*t hit the fan. Adrian began fussing; the Atlantic terminal traffic didn't help. We ducked to a side street and he calmed down. But not for long. Half way into our 2.5 mile walk home, he began trying to stretch his legs and arms out. When he realized he was completely confined, he screamed. I ended up having to take him out and hold him in my arms for the rest of the walk home. My arms are still sore.
Later that day, we decided to go back to the Bjorn. Next time I try something new, I'll do it a little closer to home.
