I remember the strange angle I had to walk at when I was using the car seat...

What do you think?

One challenge is that new parents are often not allowed to leave hospital without baby being in a car seat...

Physiotherapists warn lifting heavy seats can cause a pelvic organ prolapse in women.

“I didn’t really do anything today.”

We don’t value caring for others anything like as much as we value “productivity” and “achievement”.

Say no to thoughts like this! It can be tempting to say when someone asks, that you didn’t really achieve anything today... because you were “just” looking after your baby at home. It’s not a big mental step to then feel like it was a “waste of a day”.

It is *never* a waste of time nurturing your child. Building a happy brain is important and valuable work. It’s an investment in their growing brain and in their future. You’re nurturing healthy and happy neural connections and helping your child (even if it has been a stressful day) to know that they are loved.

You’re doing great.

It’s been a busy day... loved the ring sling workshops I did at Slinging London CIC... brill to see some familiar online faces in real life!

It was good to see some of the Born To Carry team and meet Barre&Baby in person! 💜

I barely managed to speak to some of my best mates there, brief chats at best, and even though I ran for the train I missed it! I handed out lots of my #buildahappybrain postcards.. did you get one?

So tired. Lucky for me the train terminates in Sheffield so I won’t miss my stop if I doze off....

I love this 🙂
Happy Saturday!

*NEW VIDEO* In case you needed instructions on how to parent your children correctly...

(Come see me live during my 20-city tour: kristinakuzmiclive.com)

This is where I am headed in the morning... to offer two ring sling workshops at the Carry On London event Slinging London CIC.

I’ll be bringing my Why Babywearing Matters book with me for sale and some of my #buildahappybrain postcards!

Can’t wait to see many of my friends especially my co-director Anne of Born To Carry.

Will I see you there? ... See more

Wanted to share. My little sister is having a baby soon. Her first. She is 24. Her boyfriend got shot in the neck in December and is now a quadriplegic . I’m in town for the birth and to support my sister. Coming out of Doula retirement!

Today, I went down to the hospital and showed him how he can hold his baby. He didn’t think he would be able too. He immediately burst into tears. I knew this ring sling was special. 🥰 Held my babies and now it will hold my niece with her daddy. ... See more
