I don’t think we talk enough about how birth trauma can shape your babywearing journey. For some of us, babywearing becomes a lifeline. A way to feel close when that initial connection felt delayed. A way to reclaim your body after it went through something intense. It’s how we keep going when sitting still isn’t an option- physically or emotionally. But for others or even at the same time, babywearing can feel hard. Really hard. Trying to follow the manual with a crying baby in your arms while your hands are shaking and your brain is flooded.. rewatching the same thing ten times and it's just not clicking, or breaking down because everything just feels wrong on your body. That’s not you failing. That’s your nervous system doing exactly what it was wired to do after trauma.. trying to protect you. Birth trauma can shift how we process stress, how we experience new sensations, and how safe we feel- even doing something that’s supposed to bring comfort. So if babywearing feels overwhelming... If the steps feel complicated, or your body feels tense, or the tears come quicker than you expected... it’s okay to pause. It’s okay to move slowly. It’s okay to ask for help. Because this isn’t just about getting the straps right. It’s about YOU being seen, supported, and held- while you’re learning how to hold your baby. If it feels heavier than you thought it would, you’re not alone. You’re carrying more than just a baby, and you deserve support that holds you, too. #babywearing #birthtrauma #birthtraumaawarenessweek #babywearingmama #postpartum #newborn
