No, definitely not the rolled up blanket until baby is much older and just needs the boost/pillow part of the insert to keep them in the M/froggy position. Babies are floppy and need the support of the insert to keep them from flopping around. The boost is once they're less floppy, have more neck/head control, and just need the boost because they're still too short to be in the correct position to bend freely at the knees. Also, I am less than impressed that the " certified" baby wearing teacher suggested that. So many nos. When I was out of town, my parents took my Britax click-tight (the absolute easiest car seat to install) to the fire station to install in their car. The professional COMPLETELY messed it up. Literally not anywhere even close to how it should be done. Ended up tearing a bit of the foam padding trying to thread a strap up the back and around a lever (hint: the strap should not have been inside it at all). And he complained the whole time about people in our area that buy too expensive car seats that are too complicated (ie, me, who purchased the seat). Luckily, I noticed the seat wasn't functioning correctly and took it out and fixed it. He clearly had no idea what he was doing. I’m really surprised. The baby wearers and car seat experts are usually sticklers for details!

1. How far along are you / EDD? 26w3d, June 7 2. How big is baby? Bowling Pin 3. Team. Pink 💕 4. Symptoms. Feeling large at night but overall pretty good. Sleep has been decent, so that’s awesome. 5. What and when is your next appointment? Thursday in 2 weeks, growth ultrasound and glucose test 6. Questions / concerns / rants? Issues with my right hip/sciatica. PT exercices seem to be helping somewhat, so I will keep it up. 7. GTKY: inspired by the cute baby clothes, what is your favorite thing you have bought/ordered for this baby? I bought a few cute pyjamas from the new Organic line at Carters. I also bought her her PBK lovey and associated floor mat (?), I choose the sheep this time, DD1 has the rabbit. 8. Let’s see that bump!
