Attention Mama's (and Dads too!) Baby Wearing!

A little something I noticed: I am getting fit faster simply from wearing my baby. I used to wear her in a wrap, but she's too big for that and now I wear her in a Beco baby carrier. This is burning tons more calories, and my daughter is so happy to be close to mom:)
This is awesome, I encourage moms and dads and caregivers to try it:)

That's why I bought a Phil&Teds backpack for Amelia (14 mos) to use in Singapore. We'll be there for 3-4 months while Daddy works. I'm sure to burn a TON of calories while walking around window shopping and site-seeing.0

My babies are 10 pounds, 12 pounds, 14 pounds and 1200 pounds ... wonder how that'd work out
But I do think this is a great idea!!

I completely agree!! I am a baby-wearing mama and the weight has fallen off!! We have a Kelty hiking backpack that ROCKS, and I am always pushing my double stroller with my 3 year old and my 1 year old in it. And I try to incorporate my one year old in my sit-ups, pushups, and cruches.
On top of breastfeeding which had burned an additional 500 cals for the first 6 months or so. In conclusion, babies work WONDERS in weightloss!!

There are other great reasons for getting a baby besides weight loss. You might want to look into those. :happy:0 -
