Here’s how we dismount! If you know me, you know Teddy and I talk everything through! Before we even start the process, I tell him exactly what is going to happen. -Make sure you pop out the stand on the back of the carrier. -I sit in the back of my SUV and make sure I don’t bump Teddy’s head. Part of what I tell him in advance is to let mama know if he feels like his head is ever too close to bumping the car. -Loosen hip and chest straps -Get my body out while still holding onto pack- NEVER let go -Use two hands to lower pack to the ground -Unclip and let that little one out. Their feet will probably get stuck… just laugh it off! For reference, my son is 3 and experienced with hiking in the carrier and the entire post-hike process. When he was younger before he could be chill sitting in the back of the car for a sec he would go straight into his car seat. We’ve been hiking together since Teddy was 10 weeks old. If you have any questions, I am the mama to ask! Thanks magsexplo...
