I really love that you put up realistic tutorials. When I first started babywearing I felt like I was failing cause my baby wasn’t as compliant as the videos I was watching. Thank you!
Great tutorial! We're moving house today and I've been looking for a way to carry my 13 month old while we move things about and this looks great! I'll be trying this today, thank you for such a helpful video 😁
Love the tutorial and how informative it is!! I've been going on hikes with my youngest (14 months) lately and I've been looking for a better way to wrap him as his weight and movements tend to loosen the way I was wrapping him and I would consistently have to stop to readjust/retighten!!!!
Alright, I'm in love with your videos! So I have two questions for you. One is there a wrap style that you would recommend for a baby that leans and tries to push away? The second one is what kind of wrap should I buy for a 6 months going forward? (I'd like to carry her when she is a toddler)
Hi Kate, so glad to hear you're finding them helpful! Can you either email us (info@oschaslings.com) or use the messenger function on our site to ask your questions - we have a very experienced, qualified sling consultant on hand who can help you out :)
If you are comfortable using a woven wrap and your baby has good head control and ideally can sit unaided then you could try a Ruck tied in front, keep it high up as this video shows - ua-cam.com/video/Axpw3OcASw4/v-deo.html
Just to add to this - At 4 months old it's best to go for a high back carry like a ruck (as mentioned) and use a santa toss to get them up. If you're not an experienced wrapper it's worth asking a baby carrying consultant for help as you do need to be especially careful when back carrying younger babies. You could also think about a hip carry which might give you a little more freedom. Hope that helps!
Hi Leah, that's great, we hope you'll love your new addition! I think having a longer wrap on hand is a good choice (especially if you already have your Base Size) - it opens things up for more options. I like using a Base +1 for a DH as you have slightly longer tails, nice if you can position the knot so they sit at your hip too.
Hi Fiona, you have to unwrap and re-wrap this carry each time. You can definitely do any carry without a mirror, they're just helpful when you're first learning. If you'd like any more help or more details on getting your baby up and down then do email us or use the messenger function on the website. Or you could consider a full consultation with Laurna, details above x
If she has good head control then that should be fine. If you haven't tried back carries before I would suggest you have a go at Ruck Tied in Front. ua-cam.com/video/Axpw3OcASw4/v-deo.html Make sure she's settled, practice over a soft surface and take your time.
Thanks for your feedback. This is a good one to watch yourself until you get the gist and it has so much detail that you can come back to for tips once you have the basics. We will consider making a quicker one though too!
Yeah my baby kicks off everytime I rotate him onto my back and I don't know what to do next by which time he goes straight as a board, looses his seat and we have to start over :( I need something quicker that way can copy as I wrap. Watched it 4 times on my own first but it's not the same as when baby is there
@@wingsandwildlands We'll consider making a faster one, thanks for your feedback. I recommend wrapyouinlove - should be pretty quick, then come back to this one for more in depth tips.
Hi Brittany, it might be worthwhile watching a few tutorials so you can get the basics and then coming back to this one as it's great to really see the detail of how to properly adjust the carry and troubleshoot any issues :)
It was actually helpful to see him "not helping" (lol) because this is reality and what we will have to contend with as well. Thank you.
Lol, yes so true, real life!
I really love that you put up realistic tutorials. When I first started babywearing I felt like I was failing cause my baby wasn’t as compliant as the videos I was watching. Thank you!
I just got ,y first woven wrap and I’m so excited for the possibilities! Thanks for this and thanks to your wee assistant 🥰
Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you for excellent tutorial! I really appreciate the pace and the explanation - not too fast, easy to follow and understand! 🎉
Thanks for your feedback, glad you found it helpful :)
I don't know if I can do this, but my baby absolutely loved watching this video with me.
haha, love it!
Great tutorial! We're moving house today and I've been looking for a way to carry my 13 month old while we move things about and this looks great! I'll be trying this today, thank you for such a helpful video 😁
Yes this will be perfect. Good luck with the move!
Super tutorial! I’ve been having trouble learning because my guy (13 months) loves to lean back so this was even more helpful with him “not helping”!
Haha! Hope this helps sort it out!
I love that he is not cooperating because it's real life with a toddler.
lol, yes, real life wrapping kids!
Love the tutorial and how informative it is!! I've been going on hikes with my youngest (14 months) lately and I've been looking for a better way to wrap him as his weight and movements tend to loosen the way I was wrapping him and I would consistently have to stop to readjust/retighten!!!!
So glad it was helpful, sometimes it is just about finding the right carry for you as your needs change.
I love this tutorial! It's so incredibly helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
WELL DONE! 👏
Thanks! Saw it once and was able to tie the wrap! ♥️
Amazing, well done!
This is so detailed and realistic thank you so much for sharing!
So glad it's helpful. Laurna does give some great tips, it's worth getting those details for really mastering the carry :)
Love this! Gonna try this over the weekend. Thank you!
Great! Hope you get on with it well x
What size wrap is this? Love this tutorial, can’t wait to try it with my 17 month old!
Hi Tiffany, this is a size 7 Oscha Sekai Sail - www.oschaslings.com/shop/babywearing/baby-wrap/sekai-sail-baby-wrap/. So glad the tutorial is helpful!

Glad you like it!
What would you recommend for a 4 month old? I would like to carry him on my back. It's hard to cook with him on the front

I am adding a Oscha to the woven family this month. My base size 6. Would you recommend going up to a 7 for more supportive carries such as this?

What do you do if you need to get him out and back in when your out and about? Can you do this without a mirror?

You're welcome 😊
Can I try this to my 4 months and half baby?
If she has good head control then that should be fine. If you haven't tried back carries before I would suggest you have a go at Ruck Tied in Front. ua-cam.com/video/Axpw3OcASw4/v-deo.html Make sure she's settled, practice over a soft surface and take your time.
@@OschaSlingsOfficial okeey thank you ❤ I will try
Are you using your base size?
Laurna is using her Base +1 - a size 7.
Thank you x
Do you have a link for this
Hi, the sling is Oscha Sekai Sail - www.oschaslings.com/shop/babywearing/baby-wrap/sekai-sail-baby-wrap/
Good explaining but tooo slow. I was doing it and my baby ended up losing her patience and I quit. 😒

UA-cam allows you to adjust the playback speed for your viewing. See the rotary wheel right under the video.
Afrika Style !
Good gosh this moves so slow. I can't remember step one by the end
Hi Brittany, it might be worthwhile watching a few tutorials so you can get the basics and then coming back to this one as it's great to really see the detail of how to properly adjust the carry and troubleshoot any issues :)
You could always play it twice the speed if you need it.
Way too long of a tutorial.
We made a faster version! ua-cam.com/video/Ifmguy4mgGU/v-deo.html
