Glad tidings...
- Plus Two
- What a fertility adventure we had! Our children were eventually conceived through in vitro fertilization and were born in the fall of 2009. Julie is the biological mother of both kids... Diana was the gestational mother for our son and Julie was the gestational mother for our daughter [the first couple of blog entries provides more detail]. Together, we are one lucky family!

On the go
We have become big advocates for baby carriers... Koen seems to enjoy them more than Simone but both have been rocked to sleep while the moms wander around the house. Both babies also very much enjoy a walk outside -- the trees, the fresh air, the new sights and sounds are all enthralling. Even better, they are all soothing and can guarantee a sleeping babe in a matter of minutes!

One day, you'll need to teach me how to tie those things.
ReplyDeleteYou're just radiant, Diana, in that last one.
ReplyDeleteThe Moby Wrap sling can be used to carry two infants at once, as can a combination of slings. For instance, a mei-tai style wrap for a back carry and a moby wrap front carry or regular ring sling in front, for when they get older (you know, like you need more ways to multi-task?)
ReplyDeleteThere is also a non-sling carrier out there that is a kind of harness that multiples (in their harnesses) can be strapped on to in many different carry styles. It was too complicated for my flowy, creative brain to figure out, though. I stuck with slings (long strips of cloth-- I can do that!)
My first two were 18mos apart and I had to sling both of them when we went anywhere in public, so I became very adept at strapping them both on at once.
