My first encounter with Maya Angelou was "I know why the caged bird sings."
My first encounter with babywearing was seven years ago with my friend's little boy. I wore him every week and walked to music class. I changed over to the stroller when my back couldn't deal with it. By the way, his hips are fine; BB don't CAUSE hip dysplasia, they just don't support baby's developing pelvis optimally. You don't need another carrier, you can 'scarf hack' your narrow-based carrier (posted several days ago), but when you and your child are ready to move on, investigate wider base carriers to support them - and you - so you can carry as long as you want to or need to.
