Hi, Tuesday and everyone else. I was feeling fine and not tearful at all, but since a face-off with a large dog on Friday I have been feeling weepy, mostly at the thought that dd could have been with me and had her cheek bitten off or something. I was just telling a colleague a few days ago that that aspect of pregnancy hadn't hit me yet, as well!
I have a Didymos wrap from last time which I will use again at the beginning. I found it extremely confortable, although a bit hot some days (dd born in early summer), but as mum2kiss said, faffing with metres and metres of fabric is not always practical. I've decided to go for a Manduca in addition this time because they have the option of crossing the straps on your back, which was very comfortable with the wrap. Like hamster I want to do the kindergarten run with a sling whenever possible - one route is almost entirely on forest paths which is fab (apart from the increased risk of meeting unexpectedly aggressive dogs not on leashes).
