Will my baby get so used to it he or she needs to be carried all the time?
Some parents are afraid to carry their babies because they are afraid their babies get “used” to them. Let us assure you that this is not the case. Those of us who have worn our babies when they were little generally find that our children outgrow the carrying phase when the time comes. This is simply because we have given them the carrying they need and being close to them for their first months of life. They also learn to trust that we will be there if they need us and therefore are confident to venture forth when they are ready. Babywearing is not about carrying your baby all the time, it is about carrying them when they needed to be carried.
