Someone gave me the MetroWrap child carrier a while ago and I admit that I put off trying it with my 10-week old daughter because the super long piece of fabric just looked too daunting. I’m the kind of person that doesn’t enjoy looking at or figuring out directions – I just want to put on my baby carrier and go.

But I figured that today I’d give it a try so I could “wear” my infant while doing some work. Luckily the instructions were fairly easy to interpret. (Note to future wrappers: Figure out how to put it on while your baby is in a good mood and not while your baby is cranky and crying. Oops… wish I tried that.)

It turns out that it’s totally comfy – she loved being close to me and it offered full support to my back. She’s been sleeping on me for about three hours, and I’m no worse for the wear. Actually, it’s pretty dreamy. Yeah, I‘m crushing on this carrier.
