The year in celebrity babywearing

2007 was definitely a big year for babywearing, as many celebrity moms and dads opted to carry their infants and toddlers in slings, pouches and other babywearing implements instead of strollers.

Here are just a few of our favorite babywearing photos from 2007.

Mr_fp_131945_cbbBrand new mama Keri Russell was spotted running errands with her son River Russell Deary in a PSling ring sling at the tender age of 1 1/2 weeks. (She has since switched to a New Native organic cotton pouch.)

Annabeth Gish said that her favorite baby gear for son Cash includes "the carrying things:"

What I always loved seeing was mothers with their slings and the Baby Bjorn – the carrying things. I really like the Maya, the Moby, and the New Native. I like the Maya  the best.



Gwen Stefani and husband Gavin Rossdale have worn son Kingston Rossdale in ring slings like this one from Psling New York.

They wear their kids? I didnt know it was a trend now? I just figured they were carrying them or snuggling them. :)

It’s great to see so many celebrities are choosing to wear their babies. It really is the best way to care for a baby and maybe more celebrities will continue to catch on and babywearing will become more mainstream :)

I love seeing all the babywearing celebs! They make those of us who wear our babes seem “cool” even though its really just a necessity to us!

“Wearing” your baby is a great way to bond with your baby/child. I prefer a ring sling myself. I love that celebrities are getting a baby wearing out there!!

OMG! That PSling is wayyy too low…she might as well be using one of the recalled sling riders. Poor baby:(
