One Week as a Wrapper – Day 8

At last! I can start using other carriers! But we have to catch public transport into town and somehow I find myself reaching for the wrap…. after all, it does work best for the bus. I start to tie it around me and become aware of a terrible smell. It’s the wrap – it reeks after a week of heavy use. Unwinding it reluctantly, I buckle Meena into a structured carrier; it’s fast and easy but feels strangely clunky. I throw the wrap into the washing machine before we head out of the door and I find myself wondering, just for a moment, how I’ll cope without it for a couple of days.
