Getting Ready for Winter Autumn and winter are  especially wonderful times for babywearing. Even though it’s perfectly great in summer, there’s just something snug and comforting about bundling up and stepping out into a chilly day together. The game changes with the season, though, so here’s some tips for wearing that baby through the colder months.
