Is backwrapping really scary?

Badly lit video of me wrapping my toddler on my back in our new Didymos Indio Wildrose Natur in a size 3.
People keep offering me help whenever I start to wrap and they don't back off even after declining their offer. So I wanted to check if it really looks as scary as they act.

If I had seen you doing this I'd have offered assistance - not because it looks scary but because it looks awkward.

me too! your decor is funky cool! ;-)

i'm glad you're out there pushing people's buttons by doing something they likely have NO IDEA how to do! i have yet to do a back carry. DD is only 5 months. but i'll probably try soon.

as for the video, i had a bit of a hard time seeing detail since the light from the window dominates the view. maybe next time, you have the window BEHIND the camera, so you still get the natural light, but it's not stealing the show. ;-)

scary? can sumone please explain i dont understand it just looks like a free way of carrying your child around

I'm definitely with you on this one, I get surrounded by people trying to 'help' when they really have no idea what it is you're trying to do!

Great idea for a video though, I'm inspired to video us doing the same thing! It didn't look scary to me at all.

Do you think that maybe people are just not used to seeing it done. And possibly think you are being modest by declining their help. Maybe try to explain to them that there is really nothing that they can do to help.
