One item I consistently wish I had known more about before I had children is my options for wearing or carrying my baby. As a family with a dog, and living in a climate where the sidewalks are often icy, slushy, and treacherous without a really great pair of boots, pushing a stroller is quite often out of the question. With the multitude of slings, mei tais, and wraps available, sometimes it's hard to know which one will work best for your family, your baby, and your situation.
Tummy 2 Tummy is a non-brand specific DVD which covers the four main styles of carriers (pouch slings, ring slings, mei tais, wraps) in depth, demonstrating all of the wearing positions from beginner to advanced. This DVD is the perfect accompaniment to ANY baby carrier purchase. Here are a few sneak previews: Ring Slings:

Each section is demonstrated by an expert in her field and offers excellent guidance for anyone who wants to develop the deep bonding relationship that comes from wearing your baby close to your body.
