Lucas Robert- March '06. My thinker with a huge vocabulary and a bigger heart. So full of life and wonder and imagination. Future engineer or architect or whatever he puts his mind to. My tender mama's boy with the rough-and-tumble outside. Whether playing cars or reading books or just sitting with mama, he lives life fully. And I think that is great!!

Caden Lauten- August '08 With the warmest eyes that light up the room, he is my little love-bug who wants to be with mama at all times! Never content to just sit, except when snuggled close in the sling where Mama's face is just a reached out hand away. My little explorer, following his brother and puppy everywhere, my baby and the light of my life!
I saw this journal article on one of the babywearing groups I belong to. I thought it was super interesting. Would love to know any of your thoughts....
Infant Carriers and Spinal Stress

I've never liked the front Baby Bjorn type carriers for that very reason. I especially don't see how they can be comfortable for boys. I love slings when they are little. As long as we are talking about back problems, though, my back can't handle the sling after a certain weight. When I get to this point, I love my Ergo, which supports the whole bottom and seems pretty comfortable for my guy.
Been thinking about you and praying for you since your post about Micah. Thanks for being willing to share and be vulnerable. I miss you!
Yes, that's part of the reason I became such a big sling fan. It is so versatile for all the different ages as baby develops!
Unfortunately the Bjorn and other popular pack carriers put stress on the infant spine. I think many people assume the opposite because a sling is a piece of fabric and they think it offers no support or think that because baby is curled up it "looks bad for them."
This is a good article. Thanks for sharing it. It's great to have a place to refer people if they have questions.
