I would hand one back, she would play with it until it fell and then I would give her another.

(By the way, don't use a stretchy wrap like the Moby for back carries because that is unsafe!). But we also have a Manduca (which is similar to your Beco Gemini), and I still have problems using that with BlueEyes on my back because I can never get him high enough so he can look over my shoulder or put his head on my shoulder/neck if he wants to sleep. It really depends on how high you can get your carrier and have it still be comfortable for you and baby. You don't need to get your baby as high as BlueEyes is on that picture though; as long as she can see over your shoulder it's fine. There are tons of YouTube videos of babywearing people out there to see what it should look like with your particular carrier.InBabyAttachModehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07895094545069682233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923282658637824205.post-63071802540911793652012-06-27T13:56:46.445-07:002012-06-27T13:56:46.445-07:00When can I actually start putting the baby on my b...When can I actually start putting the baby on my back? I never mastered the wrap, instead I have a gemini carrier and a baby hawk. My daughter is almost 8 months and about 16 lbs. I would love to wear her on my back but I'm not sure I would be able to put her high up enough, as you have in the picture. Any suggestions?braziliancakesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1923282658637824205.post-57862553625035376782012-06-27T12:37:47.814-07:002012-06-27T12:37:47.814-07:00Yeah I never got that training and seem to have a ...Yeah I never got that training and seem to have a baby that's too squirmy to hold on my hip for a long time.

Unless you are my mom or grandma, who both have mastered the art of doing everything one-handed with a baby on their hip. But they both started training in one-handed baby wrangling at fairly young ages, thanks to large farm families.Miss MSEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529587231142371243noreply@blogger.com
