What a wonderful feeling...
I know the easiest way to protect a baby in a sling from the rain is with an umbrella - I have one of those clear plastic ones (I call them the Queen Mother type). Are they any good for protecting a baby on your back?
What do you dress your baby in on a rainy day when carrying them in a sling? I'm thinking of getting a Connecta Solarweave, but IIRC, water goes straight through them, and I'm not sure the umbrella would be enough to keep DS dry if he were in a back carry.
And how do you manage in the rain if you have one DC in the sling and one in the pram/pushchair? How do you have enough hands for an umbrella as well? I only have one DS at the moment, but since his sleep has improved, I can't help thinking about life with two!
Thanks!
