Hiking with a newborn doesn’t have to be scary or complicated. So far my experience has been the exact opposite! The truth is that newborns do a lot of sleeping and these carrier wraps allow them to snuggle up close to you. I swear Riley gets better daytime naps on our hikes than she does in the bassinet at home 😂 The big difference I’ve found is the time. Everything takes a bit longer than it used to… it’s the combo of my current fitness levels, the extra weight of carrying the baby, and the fact that on most hikes (unless they are super short) there will be a breastfeeding break. Like anything, the more you do it the more confident you get and that’s definitely been true for me when it comes to hiking with Riley. Every adventure I get a little more clear on what I need and don’t need… on what works and doesn’t work. And an added bonus is that nearly everyone you cross paths with will celebrate you for getting out on the trails. I can’t tell you how many compliments I’ve receive...
