Moby Wrap Baby Carrier - Organic Celery

I don't know what I would do without this. I have a 7 week old baby who LOVES to be held, and without this carrier I don't think I'd be able to get a bite to eat. In fact, he's asleep in the Moby as I write this now! He likes it better than the fancy swing, or his nice pack 'n play, or his bed.

There is a SMALL learning curve to putting it on, but there are directions in the pamphlet that comes with the wrap, Moby has instructional videos online, and there are also some great YouTube videos. After about 1 or 2 times putting it on, I felt completely comfortable with it.

Though not every baby (although most do!) like to be held in a carrier, it should never be because they're "crumpled". If you put it on right, baby should be well supported. The wrap does stretch, so put it on fairly tightly and you'd be surprised how much room you still have. You get to know how best to put it on based on your own baby - that's the great thing about wraps, they're completely adjustable!

Great for in the house or outdoors for walks. I've even used it while out shopping. No need to wrestle with big heavy car seats and strollers! My son is already 12 lbs, and his weight is very well distributed. It's very comfortable. Great for newborns and small infants who like to be swaddled and cuddled in close. Because it is made of cotton though, it can get a bit warm for baby if used in a warmer environment.

In summary, it's affordable, it's comfortable (for mom and baby), and it easily fits into your diaper bag to take on the go (if going out, put wrap on before leaving house so once you arrive you can slip baby in).

Note: **NEVER USE A STRETCH WRAP TO CARRY AN INFANT ON YOUR BACK**

I'm so glad I registered for this wrap. I use it more than I use the stroller or the other baby bjorn type carrier. It does take a little practice but it's really a great carrier once you do. It has different positions you can use as they get to the 3 and 6 month stages. And it distributes the weight more evenly than the other type of carrier I have. It is not as breathable though as some other carriers so just be aware of having to many layers or heavy clothing on baby while using it.

Ok so it is not perfect but I love this wrap! Yes, it takes a minute to tie it on and get baby in but I got much better at it with a little practice. And it is versitile so you can hold in different positions as baby gets older. I will say that you will get much warmer with this wrap than with other types of carriers so be aware of having heavy clothing on baby while wearing it. I have the infantino flip carrier as well which is more like the baby bjorn style and the wrap is much better at distributing the weight so I can carry her for longer without getting a sore back. I recommend this to everyone.

I love the Moby Wrap and so does my sister. This product has been so great for carrying them around, especially when the younger one was born and we still needed hands to deal with the older one. The baby's head was always supported and he was cozy. It's by far and away THE most comfortable carrier I've ever worn because it's doesn't have the narrow straps and it's super sweet to have the baby so close to you to cuddle.

It does take some practice and getting used to. Another commenter said her baby was uncomfortable in it because he was all crumpled up and she had difficulty getting him in and out. This is where practice is really important. Don't give up on it if you had issues initally.

This was the biggest waste of money...please don't buy it. My mother bought it for me before my baby was born. I have tried to wear my baby in it over ten times and not only is it a huge challenge to get him into it, once he is in it, he only lasts about a minute because he cries because he is so crumpled up in it!

I love the Moby. It's a bit difficult to get used to at first, but once you get the hang of it (took about 7 or 8 tries) it's great. My 5 week old calms right down once settled in and I have both arms free to get some things done. It's long, but fits my 5'3", 110 lb frame with no problems. Chose organic for the right reasons too!
