I'm mostly a side sleeper anyways so I didn't really have to change much - I just added more pillows! It's ok to lay on your stomach as long as it's comfortable I think - which shouldn't be an issue for the first half of the pregnancy, so you'd have time to adjust!

We posted at the same time apparently

Fran, I wish I knew how to share a video from Facebook (been trying, can't figure it out for the life of me), because I recorded about 30 seconds of Justin "helping" me cook dinner last night, and it was awesome. LOL

Well, *I* think it's awesome.

So what are the big differences between the Ergo and Beco? I just liked that the Beco did the hip carry in addition to the front and back, but if it's more of a pain for whatever reason, I might reconsider.

[darkchild16]

You can hip carry in the Ergo. It was just how easy it was to adjust. I can switch between the two kids in the Ergo just by lifting a plastic buckle. My Beco had extra fabric as well and you had to adjust the infant insert just so. With just one baby I'm sure it wouldn't have been a issue but I wear 2 different aged kids.


these suck but Ill share these as well

I'm a stomach sleeper, and right away after getting pregnant I stopped being as comfortable on my stomach, mostly due to heart palpitations and really low blood pressure, I had to sleep propped up a bit on pillows. Now I'm sleeping mostly on my back, which I NEVER usually do. It's just suddenly more comfortable.

I can sleep on my side with pillows between my knees/behind my hips, but recently that's making my sleep paralysis worse.

By the end of pregnancy I don't think anyone's really very comfortable, but I think for most of it you just kind of adapt to other sleeping positions.

Okay, here I am at 17 weeks.

I am clearly incapable of taking pictures unsupervised. Mu says so. Also I was not arching my back - I was completely relaxed and my picture from last week does not look like that. Pregnancy is weird yo.

And just because. If you're gonna supervise, you're gonna get kisses.
