The Ultimate in Babywearing...
is to wear both of your babies at once! O was on my back in the Beco while E was relaxing in my pouch style sling. I love both the sling and Beco and use them all the time. I'm so glad that E is finally big enough for the Beco! I love the sling, but the Beco is much more comfortable when I'm wearing her for longer periods of time. She's still small enough that I can wear her for 2 or more hours in the sling comfortably. O also still fits in the sling, but only for short periods of time :)

how do you get them both on? Yo really are super mama!
Wow, I can't believe she fits on your back! My 40+ pound three year old would kill my back!
beautiful photo, do you need help getting "O" on, or does she crawl up and help you do it?
VEry neat, I would do this in a heart beat! I wore my babies in slings, loved it.
I haven't done this very much, but O was super excited so we may be doing it more often :) I get O on first. She stands on the bed, and I stand in front of her and she gets on my back. I strap her in, and then put the sling on and put the baby in. The beco puts the weight on my hips, so it doesn't hurt my back even though O weighs around 37 pounds. The beco really is a lifesaver :)
Very cute photo! I did that once, but it wasn't long before my back started to hurt. (I think I made it a 1/4 mile before I realized that I never want to do that again!
Well done! You are officially a babywearing goddess!
You are Super Mom!! You look great - thanks for letting us see you.
Babywearing is so much fun!! I still wear my little one that is O's age too.I have to say this is the first picture I have ever seen of you! Thanks for coming out and sharing!
so cute, I love babywearing... though my two youngest were too busy, that they didn't ever stay there too long. I remember with a few of the older A's babywearing, was the only way I got anything done!!! I wish I would have taken a cute photo like that!
i dont think i have ever seen a photo of you!! glad you put one up :)
and dont you just love your older kids wanting to do what babies do.. unfortunately I have four :S lol
I love it!! And I loved seeing a picture of you. Wonderful picture!!
I have been wanting to try both kids baby wearing @ the sametime too , thanks for the encouragement! I will but my 9 month in the Hotsling & my toddler in my Mei Tai.
Great picture. I have never worn two children at once. I have carried one while wearing a baby and that gets old quickly. Glad it works for you. Also, thanks for all of your great ideas.
"Beauty full" - baby wearing is the best.
Dear Melissa,
You are a super-mama inside and out. How beautiful you are with your two baby girls. There is nothing like that warm cozy love!
Best, Mary Ann
PS~the cute squeak sandals arrived and they are quite a hit! Thank you again for the give-away.
LOVE it!
That's so lovely!
do you love your beco? I'm considering buying one, but the price has made me a little cautious... thoughts?
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Beco! I can't imagine life with a 2nd child without it. It's absolutely worth the money :)
have you ever tried the ergo? It looks a lot like the beco, but you can use it front, back, side, and like a sling from newborn to 40 pounds. Of all the backpacks/slings I've tried, it's by far my favorite.

Wow--just, officially, wow! My boys were too wiggly for that, so the closest I ever came to your feat was 10kg of one-year-old on the front, and a 10kg bag of rice in a backpack on my back walking home from the store. At least it was balanced:))
