Baby wearing is good for babies (assuming you make sure their legs are in the correct “M” position). I find it super calming too, for both of us.
I used a stretchy wrap at times and then moved to a carrier and now own 3 carriers! You won't regret using a carrier. All babies want at this stage is their mama
I wear my son all the time and always have
If you use a wrap it's comfortable just make sure they are 9lbs or more or my baby girl was a week old when I did it she sleeps forever
My LO is 8 weeks and I’ve been wearing her a couple times a week since 5 weeks or so. It’s nice as an option when my body and mind don’t want to sit anymore. She loves it and it’s so nice to have that option to be close and active 💕
Baby wearing gives me a little freedom in my hands to get some stuff done. My baby is 5 weeks and clingy clingy right now and it's sometimes the only way she settles
Baby wearing has saved my sanity. Especially with a toddler. I started wearing my LO as soon as I could move good again. Lol
Look up @letstalkbabywearing yes many many people baby wear! And no it’s not a phase the baby still thinks it’s part of your body for a long time (maybe up to 9 months?) and loves to be held. My husband and I both baby wear. I own 5 different wraps/carriers
I would start to baby wear. My son is 5 weeks also and he’s a contact sleeper and I started wrapping him and it’s made my life so much easier before I could barely put him down to go to the bathroom.
