Is there anything more adorable than a grown-ass man wearing a baby? It's right up there with puppies and kittens and a collection of Pixar movies. During my pregnancy, I used to joke about how excited I was to see my own partner sport our child with the same ease that he wore hoodies or baseball hats. There's just something so appealing and so strong and so sexy about a dad who helps his partner after she gives birth by way of strapping a child to his chest or back. Spoiler alert: I was not disappointed. I still remember one of the first swoon-worthy selfies my husband sent me when I was at work and he was trying out the carrier some friends had loaned us. Guys, it was everything I'd hoped for, and more possibly even more.
Should you ever find yourself under a dark cloud of gloom and doom or scary-close to considering the world nothing but a large dumpster fire of a planet, I highly recommend checking out #babywearingdad on your social platform of choice. It will restore your faith in mankind. It will right every wrong you're currently experiencing. It will, well, at least keep you preoccupied for a couple hours.
In the meantime, however, let's consider how a grown-ass man might approach a task as important and helpful (and attractive) as babywearing. Because, baby-wearing only counts if he's not a baby about it himself. Here are the surest signs that someone babywearing is, in fact, a grown-ass man.
