Hey everyone! I'm a new mom and I love babywearing, but I'm afraid of doing it in the hot weather. The thought of my baby getting all sweaty and uncomfortable in the carrier doesn't sit well with me. So, I was wondering if anyone had any tips for babywearing in hot weather? Is there a specific carrier I should use? Any fabric recommendations? Would love to hear from experienced parents who have successfully used baby carriers in hot weather. Thanks in advance!

Greetings fellow parents! I've been babywearing in the hot summers for a couple of years now, and I have found that one of the most important things to do is to adjust the carrier correctly for the weather. When babywearing in hot weather, you want to ensure you're using carriers that have breathable fabrics, particularly in areas where your baby's skin can easily become sweaty or irritated.
Personally, I prefer using a carrier that's adjustable enough to allow me to provide ideal airflow and support for my baby's body. Using a carrier with sufficient airflow helps reduce bulk and your baby will be more comfortable without overheating. I would also recommend carrying a small towel or washcloth with you to wipe away sweat and moisture to keep refreshing your baby's skin.
Another tip to consider is to choose either an upright or hip carry position instead of a tummy-to-tummy carry while babywearing in hot weather. The upright positions allow for more airflow between you and your baby, thereby keeping heat away from the baby's body.
Most importantly, always be aware of your baby's signals and monitor their temperature regularly while babywearing in the hot weather. Hopefully, these insights will help keep you and your little ones cool and comfy during your summer adventures!
