My 2.5 years old doesn't like to walk, reject stroller and carrier, only want to be carried. I am sooo tired. Any tips?

My colleague bought her son, who was going through an anti-walking phase, one of those shoes that emit lights and squeaky sounds. Needless to say, he was soooo intrigued by the sounds and lights, he started walking and running around. Perhaps you can try this? It will irritating as heck with all the squeaking sounds but worth a try if it lets you take a break from carrying your child all the time :)
