my friend katherine let me borrow her baby wrap, made by an australian company called hug-a-bub. it's sort of complicated to use because it wraps around the torso several times and it has to be done just right or it creates pressure points and gets uncomfortable. but after some practice, i've got the hang of it and now like it quite a bit. we use it late in the afternoons, when ben's getting moody and i have to fix dinner. he rides along while i do my work. we talk about what i'm doing and he grabs my fingers and tries to wedge as many as he can into his mouth. it's a good way for us to cope with, and most avoid, the early evening meltdown.
