We just used one of the small blankets we got as a baby gift. Or hubby just stuck baby in his coat. We had convertible carseats that work from infant to ready for booster and stay mounted in car. My knee issues wouldn't let me carry infant seat. We used soft baby carrier like Lilebaby or pack frame style like picture I shared.

Yeah... carrying the car seats is tough... I think the ones with the twisted handles are better, but not by much.

And most of our babies cried in those things anyway. So... we just carried them.. in our arms or a sling.

They weren't happy in the backpack until about toddler size.

I found something sling-like that i really love.
It looks like it has decent insert so hips are positioned correctly. Only worry I would have is head position as really young babies. I can't tell how good the head support it. If their chin tucks tight to chest it will constrict airway and can cause suffication. The check is you can easily reach and kiss bridge/tip of nose while wearing baby. Nose up means airway isn't pinched.

That could be an issue…

Rain today....warm. Nice hot coffee right now. Listening to the soft dripping out there.

@farmerjan I hope you're getting the rain you need. Here, not a need. 😔

@Baymule are your temps as low as predicted? We get cold overnight, 28-32ish. This rain might come down as flurries with colder upper temps. Won't stick, warm ground.

My goat divas are waiting for me to deliver hay to them. 😁. I'll get there before long. They don't want to get wet -- me either. 🤣. Gonna be a long day!! Do a puzzle day?🤔
