Front Cross Carry

Instructions for the FCC (Front Cross Carry)

The front cross carry is a great carry to use when you need “poppability”. The wrap can just stay tied onto you, and you can pop baby in and out of it. Very useful when you are running quick errands, or if you are practicing Elimination Communication and need to help baby potty regularly.
In these instructions, baby is 6 months, and the wrap is a Didymos Lind Waves 4.7m.
First, assemble your tools.  ;)
