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.
