using a sling in the house

[claireL1991]

Does anybody do this?

My 5 week old little girl is very clingy to me. She will happily sleep on my chest and have cuddles all day (which I love too) but the minute I put her down she's awake again and cries until I pick her up.
I can't bear to hear her cry for very long and don't really want to leave her to cry it out.
The problem I'm having is that I don't get any house work or jobs done because I'm having to hold her all the time so I was thinking of getting a sling to put her in during the day so that she's still with me but so that I can get jobs done at the same time.
Does anybody else do this or am I making a rod for my own back?

TIA x

I used a ring sling with my toddler when she was tiny; it was perfect for feeding her the school run, as I could loosen it a bit, latch her on, then tighten it a bit and bob's yer uncle. It was excellent.

I wasn't recommending back carries for now just saying I find them better in a wrap don't think I put DS on my back til he was a year tbh, I liked looking at his face!

No such thing as 'rod for your own back'.

DS spent a lot of time in a Moby Wrap/Manduca and walked at 9 months.
