    I’m going to have to figure out how to do that too. I’ve got my first coming pretty soon. I get 8 weeks parental leave so I don’t have quite as much time as my wife gets to figure all that stuff out, maybe I should practice before the baby comes.

      A stretchy wrap is great for newborns since they’re often too small for a normal carrier even with an insert. Some brands make ones with buckles if you don’t want to fiddle with tying it on every time. I use Boba but there’s a bunch of similar brands at the same price point.

      I hate to recommend reddit here, but scrolling through babywearing helped me a ton with figuring out what a safe carry looks like for a tiny baby.
