Happy Mother’s Day everyone ❤️It’s been a strange year this year & we’ve been pretty quiet here at The Carrying Works but I just wanted to pop on to say hello and to wish you all a happy, healthy 2021 ❤️ I’d love you all to share something positive from the year in the comments if you can, let’s see some of the wonderfulness this year has given us!Today is World Mental Health Day & this year has been a particularly tough year for many of us. Every week, one in six people faces a common mental health problem such as depression or anxiety. Yet there is still a stigma felt by so many around asking for help or talking about our feelings. If things are feeling difficult right now, please open up & talk. And if someone tries to talk to you, please listen.We’re carefully getting ourselves prepared for how on earth we can start to bring back library sessions now that the bigger kids are returning to school & settling in. I’m looking forward to a nice coffee & a catch-up soon with @bcarried so we can chat slings & I can hear all about her exciting new venture!A bit of a change from my usual topic but an important one nonetheless. And a bit of a shout-out to a local business ❤️ I never thought CSP would be for me. I had the same thoughts many of you may be having about it. Gross. Sticky. Having to wash my used pads.Thursdays challenges for@europeanbabywearingweek ☺️ Today’s challenges were Carrying at Naptime, Green & the Kangaroo carry 🌈 Have you been joining in? We’d love to see some of your photos 😃These are today’s challenges for European Babywearing Week!
