Back Carry

Getting out of a Back Carry

Because I’m unbearably picky the only thing I’d change here is that when you are putting the baby on your leg to go up to the back carry,  begin by laying the Calyx along the top of your thigh.  Keep the waistbelt and harness portion out of the way,  and straddle the baby on what looks like the middle of the panel portion.  Then,  when you buckle baby in,  the waistbelt is to the front of his thighs.

When you go to take the shoulder straps in your hands,  if you bring them under baby’s armpits,  it can feel more secure.  Also then baby’s weight doesn’t cause the wasistband to end up in the wrong place.

Thank you very much,  Bee!
