[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 530120, member: 14557"] To be honest I can't see how being carried a lot would do harm to the child. In fact the studies I have seen about using lot of baby sling and carrying the baby seem to indicate that it in fact helps baby develop, not hinder and makes them more calm and lessens crying and fussing. Carrying without a sling may of course be harmful to the person doing the carrying (gives you back pain very easily) and it is also important especially with smaller babies that the sling provides good position to baby (some popular baby carriers don't.) Babywearing started to get popular where we live when my easy child was a baby and I had him in sling almost constantly. I in fact did all that baby sling, cloth diapers, co-sleep, nurse till two-years-old and organic food-rutine with him. He and also other kids I knew at the time who were carried with slings a lot all developed well and started to move early. I was also very chagrined that I didn't know about baby slings when the difficult child was a baby. He was colicky and needed to be carried but I couldn't carry him enough because of the back pain it caused. But I have to say that also his motoric and overall development has been fine if a little bit slower than easy child's. [/QUOTE]
