Moby Wrap

I really love the idea of the Moby wrap! Now you can wear your baby without the extra bulk of padding, clips, straps and everything else!




The features GiveThemRoots loves:
- The Moby Wrap can used for newborns all the way up to 35lbs!
- There are so many ways to use Moby Wraps! Even if you aren't carrying your child (in one of 9 different positions) the Moby Wrap can be used as a blanket, a pillow, a nursing cover, the possibilities are endless!
- Free of snaps, buttons, buckles and clips! This makes the Moby Wrap one of the most eco-friendly babywearing systems on the market!
- Super easy to clean, just launder the Moby Wrap the same as you would your clothing!
- Crazy comfortable!! The Moby Wrap uses your entire back to support your baby unlike other carriers that can put strain on your neck and shoulders.


Our first impression, was "oh my gosh this is the length of a football field!" but it was the softest 100% cotton football field ever! It took a few times of following along with the video before I got my wiggly 15 month old positioned correctly but once I did the Moby Wrap started to pull on my heart strings for all the reasons above!


Even Sheryl Crow loves Moby! (photo shown on left). Sheryl is sporting the Moby D wrap. Moby D's are half a meter shorter than Moby Wraps, they have a special central fabric piece so you can show off your style, and Moby D wraps also tie on the hip instead of in the front.





The only negative thing I can say about this wrap is the ease of use. Having a wiggly toddler didn't help the learning process at our house. The Moby Wrap takes a little longer to put on and to remove than other babywearing systems do. However, Moby Wrap has excellent resources available to make sure that users are getting the most benefits possible from wearing their baby! Just like anything practice makes perfect and I'm sure a few more babywearing adventures with my little man and I'll be a pro!

Do you own a Moby Wrap or any other wrap style carrier? I'd love to hear some tips and tricks about using a wrap carrier! I'd also love to hear why you love your Moby Wrap!

I adore my Moby wrap.

No tips and tricks. It definitely helps to watch the videos on the site and on YouTube though.
