Baby wearing x2 babies

Post: # 152844Post thesunflowergal »

Has anyone tried wearing two children/babies at once?

I currently wear dd2 in a mei tai on my back. Thinking about getting another to wear the new baba too, but a bit worried that I will get myself in a complete knot.

Thanks Nikki

I can't help, but am on the naturalmamas.co.uk (hope thats ok to put that here) forum, there are loads of mums who wear two on there, they would be able to give you some advice! I know it is possible as many of them have put up pictures of two being carried one front one back. Good luck

Your eldest will be 2 when the other arrives no? Be careful with your back!

I got pregnant with DD2 when DD1 was 21 months, she'd been walking since 14 months and doing a bit of the footpath for a few months, getting pregnant was the cut off point for me so from then on she has walked everywhere (and I mean kilometres everyday, it's 1km to the car alone).

Yes for a while when DD1 was still in the back pack I had DD2 on front with sling but both grew at a very fast rate and the combined weight straight down on my hips was too much for me, thage difference was 2 years.......well, still is!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and advice!! Thanks for the link Sarah I will have a look.

I guess we will have to see how it goes! My dd2 is very tiny for her age, 18lb and in 6-9 month clothes. She is still not walking, but I have told her that she needs to get her bum in gear lol.
