  • In this video, I show you my top three carries when it comes to babywearing newborns on my back. Using a baby wrap can feel complicated, especially when you attempt babywearing on your back, this is made scarier when you think about trying to safely wrap your baby onto your back. I hope that this video can give you a little comfort and some help if this is something that you want to do.
    Carries: Ruck, Russian Jordan’s back carry, reinforced double hammock
    Please note that you should only be trying this if you are an experienced wrapped and/or you have someone there to help spot you. I recommend trying this over a soft surface such as a bed until you feel confident.
    All wraps shown are handwoven by Robbins Nest Weaving.

    I watched this video when I was pregnant, started practicing at two months old, and now at 4 months I can wrap my baby on my back all by myself. Your instructions are very clear, you and your baby are adorable. I've come back to this video many times to watch your technique. The pants trick DOES work to get a deep seat in a ruck! I notice a difference when I don't have him in pants. I haven't attempted the Jordan's back carry yet, but I will do that next and I am sure I'll watch this video more times to learn.

      I feel like wearing little babies on your back isn't talked about nearly enough and it honestly makes me so happy to know that this video has been helpful in your babywearing journey! I use these carries almost daily still with my kids. I posted another video that has a couple more carries as well if you wanted to see more (The other video also shows Rosemary over a year older than she was here 😭)

    Where were you when I had my baby in 2019 and trying to figure this out?? Lol. I gave up and front wrapped but every time I was cleaning the house or doing something my hands where needed I find her head would get in the way especially as she got older. And I would say each and every time, “Man I wish I knew how to back wrap” Definitely saving this for the next one. Thank you mama

      It’s easy to understand why back carrying is the traditional way; it frees up one’s hands and arms to do work like cooking or gardening and actually puts less strain on the back than front carrying.

      In that case you just need to pull the fabric up between you and baby once baby is on your back, I find this easier with help when they are small. I made a UA-cam video for Robbins Nest weaving about different carry’s and if you jump to the double hammock you can see how I created a seat for my daughter without using the pant tuck method.

    • @TheDerrys
      @TheDerrys  2 роки тому

      Try putting a large amount in him pants width wise. That way when you tighten and some pulls out there will still be some tucked. Hopefully that helps but if not there are a few other tricks that can help but a lot of it comes down to trying to tighten with the pocket you’ve created if that makes sense. It DEFINITELY gets easier the more times you do it so just keep practicing! ❤️

      Your baby is snug and tight against you and you can feel their breath on your neck and hear them breathing. You can feel every wiggle and sigh. Being firmly attached to your baby is much better for mom and baby than putting them down away from you.

    • @tinywoolyelephant
      @tinywoolyelephant 7 місяців тому

      Humans have been back carrying for thousands and thousands of years. It's very natural and safe. Just because not as many people in the West do it this way does not make it "cold". It's good to have your baby with you as much as possible and this is a great way to do it.
