I think you said that you aren’t a fan of the Baby Bjorn in a previous entry, but I have to say that Connor and I love it. I was able to get a gently used one off of ebay for much less than it goes for in most stores. He wasn’t a fan of his sling.

Funny, sounds close to torturous to me. But thanks for the suggestions, Caren. I planned on bringing a Snugli and a sling, and buying a traditional Korean Hanbok while we are there. That way baby has options.

Caren, I just want to say that “snugglie-type-things” are my favorite part of Korean culture… keeping your baby close to you so you know what it’s going on with it (sleeping, fussy, in need of changing, etc.) and still having use of both arms is simply brilliant. Plus, I like snuggling… thus, “snugglie-type-things” with my new baby sound very nice.

I have good news … and bad news. Good news is … Hepatitis B is actually fairly difficult to contract. Bodily fluids and all that. Bad news is … Hepatitis A not so much and Hep. A shots are actually 3 … shots. Like … it’s a series of shots for the immunity to kick in 100%. I will come hold your hand if you want.

One more thing….my sister-in-law and brother lived in Daegu, S.Korea for almost 3 years….they said that most of the babies there are carried around in snugglie-type-things and backpacks. She recommends you purchase one of each when you get to Korea. It will help the baby with the transition.

Sabrina, Thanks for letting me know about the vaccines. I thought it would be some wierd ones that I’d never heard of. Hep A & B and MMR are all good ones to have anyway, just living in the U.S. They’re not too bad. And the last Tetnus I got, I dont even remember it hurting!

Nick can fill you in on what the epidural needle looks like. Thankfully, I did not see or feel the needle. What is even worse than getting the shots yourself, is seeing your baby get his/her shots Good luck!
