Seeing as the temperatures are dropping lets have a look at babywearing while it's cold. You can wear your baby over your own coat are you can get a special coat for babywearing, there are lots of different brands that sell special jackets for front or back carrying.
I personally like to wrap my baby with only a thin sweater underneath and a babywearing jacket over it. For me it makes it easier to get a nice wrapjob and more important my baby and me are in the same jacket which makes that she is kept warm by my body temperature. If you use a babywearing jacket remember not to dress your baby to warm, your wrap counts as 1 layer of clothing, your jacket is an other warm layer and you give your own body warmth to your baby aswell. So just a longsleeve body and a jumpsuit are ok if temps aren't below 5, ad an other layer or 2 if it get colder then that, no need to put your baby in a ski suit underneath your jacket. Make sure your baby's feet and head are well protected against the cold as they aren't kept warm by your jacket or bodytemprature.
When you wear your baby over your jacket you have to dress your child much warmer as a little one on your back or front is not moving and will cool of much quicker then yourself. make sure his hands and feet are protected from the cold as well as his head and neck, these are the areas that cool of the quickest and make that your child will get cold really quickly. Body, thin jumpsuit, fleece jumpsuit and if it's really cold a skisuit are no luxury, gloves and warm shoes with warm socks and a beanie that protects baby's neck come in handy aswell.
My son and I went visiting his daddy last winter who was working in a ski area in the French alpes, in the pictures you can see how we babywear in temperatures between -5 and 5 degrees. when the sun was out we went for longer walks when it was cloudy, hence colder, we only went out for small periods of time, always dressed accordingly.
Make sure when it's cold outside and you go for longer walks you check regularly if you baby is not getting to cold, as I already said a little higher up your baby on your back or front is not moving as much as you are so they cool of much quicker then you do, especially their hands and feet!
In the pictures you see me with my son on my back under my babywearing jacket when he is in the wrap and over my jacket when he is in the babycarrier.
Wrap used in this post is pellicano baby zoya philia, carrier used is Madama googoo and the babywearing coat I'm wearing is momawo.
