Exercise With Your Baby - Suggestion 12: Dancing

New Baby Carrier - Although the Deuter Kid Comfort II Child Carrier - Titan (Google Affiliate Ad) appeared to be more comfortable for the baby - with a wider seat, we exchanged it for the premium version of the Osprey Poco Plus Child Carrier - Romper Red (Google Affiliate Ad). The comfort for the parent was improved and the impact on the child's comfort was negligible. The carrier was otherwise comparable to the Deuter brand, but the premium Osprey version also has a built in rain / sun shade. 

In addition to using the carrier for walks or hikes, if you have a lite dancing program and your child does not walk or crawl, you can strap them into your carrier as you do some low cardio moves. Alternatively, if your child does crawl or walk, they can try to follow along. 

Check out some of the newer blog posts as we start to add some dance exercises. For now, jump around, do some turns, and flail your arms along to any beat and your child with follow along, and probably laugh, at your awkward new behavior.
