20 Best Wrap For Newborn (2022 Updated)

I love the idea of baby wearing and freeing up my arms. My little one loves being worn (for the most part) and falls asleep usually shortly after being put in a wrap. I like the idea that this wrap doesn’t involve any plastic or buckles.

However, I don’t like having to set a fussy baby down to tie this wrap on. It can take a little while to get it on straight. getting baby in isn’t difficult, but getting them out takes a bit more work.

My largest complaint is that it is difficult to get the weight distribution right; it ends up pulling on my neck on one side of the other no matter how much I try to ensure the fabric is laying flat and open.

Also tying around the waist can start to dig in after a while of baby carrying. Overall, I would not buy another wrap of this style and I’m still on the hunt for something light weight to keep babe close.

Lastly, the warning labels on every baby item are obnoxious and this product is no different; at a tail end there is a huge label that detracts from the otherwise soft jersey material and minimalistic look of this wrap.

I contacted the company for advice on which wrap to purchase and they was very helpful. Received the sling next day. After a few goes me and partner and sussed how to use the sling as we have a tiny baby I wouldn’t recommend using until the required weight.

Very comfortable to wear once established for you and your baby. I choose this design so me and my husband can both wear it and also for potential future children. Found using YouTube helpful as a tutorial.

As a regular baby wearing mama I do love my carriers. Besides the Aura wrap I also have two soft sided carriers, a wring sling and two knit wraps like this one. I primarily use the long knit wraps in the first three months with my babies as I think this is the easiest and most comfortable way to carry newborns.

I love how comfy wraps are versus slings and buckled on carriers as they don’t have straps or hardware to dig into skin, they also distribute the babies weight more evenly so are better for folks with back and shoulders issues.

What really nice about the Aura wrap is it is made out of a thin, lightweight material compared to the most common wraps which makes it more comfortable to wear in warmer climates. The colors are also very beautiful and on trend.

This is my favorite wrap to wear around the house or to tie on before driving to doctors appointments and placing baby in right out of car. Makes moving around waiting room and office way easier (especially with other small kids to keep track of).

As with any full length basic wrap there is a learning curve to figuring out how to tie it and the correct tension to make sure baby is secure and high up without being too tight. The contrast stitching on the Aura is helpful for keeping track of the rails, making this one great for beginners.

I highly recommend a few practice tries before trying with baby and to only introduce baby to it at first when they are fed and in a good mood so that they learn to love it like my children have. I received this product from the weeSpring Parent Panel.

Review I received the Embrace Soft Air Mesh Newborn Carrier through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest review. I have 3 kids, (the youngest being 2 months old,) and I have a lot of experience with babywearing.

My babies and I have all loved using wraps, slings and carriers throughout their infancy and even toddlerhood – in the house to get things done, out and about running errands, walking and hiking, on all day trips and on vacation- carriers are definitely a game-changer for any parent.

For my 2- month old son, I have been using a traditional wrap to carry him since he was born. Like the name implies, the wrap is a long piece of fabric that requires a lot of complicated (at times) wrapping and tying to put on, but it’s also super cozy and warm to carry my newborn in the colder months in New England.

But as my son is getting a bit older, and it’s getting warmer outside, I’d started looking for a different carrier- something less heavy and thick, and something a little easier, especially when ‘on the go’.

I didn’t feel the baby was quite ready for the bigger structured carriers yet, even with the infant insert. Enter the Embrace Soft Air Mesh Newborn Carrier! This mesh carrier combines all of my favorite features from the wrap with all of the conveniences and support of a more structured carrier.

It keeps my baby cozy and close to me and is great for breastfeeding. Like with the wrap, he falls asleep almost instantly when in the Embrace carrier. It is super lightweight – incredibly easy to pack up and take with me on outings and it takes up hardly any space in a bag.

The material is a lightweight knit/mesh – it’s soft and breathable for me and my little guy and I can definitely see us using this carrier all summer long without either of us getting too hot or sweaty.

I love that the straps are stretchable and wrap in the back – like my wrap, it is comfortable and supportive for me and baby- and the long straps make it so easy to put on by myself too. It is so much easier and more convenient to put on than the wrap- literally 3 buckles and we’re good to go.

The carrier has a padded waistband/belt, and a cushioned neck support for baby, and it keeps his hips in the ergonomic “M-position” that’s so important for his hip development. This means we’re both comfortable, even when babywearing for several hours a day.

Other great features of this carrier: it’s machine washable and once he’s old enough, we can use this carrier for baby to sit in a face-out position. I love this carrier so much that I now find myself reaching for this carrier over my wraps, sling and other carriers – it’s just so comfortable and so easy.

This carrier would really make a perfect gift for new/expecting parents and is a great addition to a baby registry – I definitely highly recommend!.

I received this newborn carrier through the Stellar Product Testing Panel in perfect timing! Having had two other newborns in spring/summer timing and being an avid baby wearer, I have been searching for a cooler alternative for baby number three than what I’ve used in the past.

Overall this is a very comfortable, lightweight, breathable cross between a traditional wrap and a carrier and there’s really nothing I’ve found quite like it on the market. These are the pros that I have experienced with this carrier: 1.

Amazingly soft, stretchy material that is breathable like a sports T-shirt. The stretch is better than I’ve seen in any non-wrap carrier and is great for postpartum mom and newborn. This truly has the support of a carrier with the comfort of a warp without feeling like you are bundled in a sweater.

2. So easy to put on. It is so important to be able to slip a carrier on quickly especially when you’re in a hot parking lot with no space and baby is waiting to get out. This slick two clip system (or one clip if you put it over your head) eliminates frustrating tugging, tying or latching every time you just want to get out of the car.

3. Very adjustable to personalize the fit. This has just three main adjustments you can make plus the shoulders that can spread out. The straps have plenty of length so it can be adjusted to my husband who is much larger than myself with plenty more strap to go.

The shoulders can spread out mimicking the comfortable fit of a wrap without feeling like you are wearing a sweater (also leaving your back open to the air). It’s also good to note that if you are the only one using it, then you don’t have to worry about getting it just the right tightness or height every time you use it.

4. Quick and easy instructions. This may seem trivial since we have the internet, but the instructions are so easily laid out that you can quickly find your baby’s weight and how you plan to wear them (forward/backward) and immediately see how they/the carrier should or shouldn’t look once set up.

No need to search for videos or wonder if baby is safe and comfortable. I have not experienced any significant cons with this carrier. The only con that might come up is that it only goes to 25lbs, and I prefer to stay minimal with what baby gear I own.

But given that newborns are so different in needs and body shape than older babies, and I tend to wear my newborn much more than older babies I think it is worth owning a newborn specific carrier.

My son is not yet even a week old, but he already loves this carrier! I have 5 kiddos, with my youngest being born at a whopping 10lbs 9oz. This makes it difficult to use some newborn carriers because he is so heavy already, they just pull down on my shoulders.

That is not the case with this Embrace Soft Air Mesh Newborn Carrier. It provides amazing support, is super comfortable (for both me and him!), and is easy to use. Upon opening the box, I was surprised by how compact the carrier was.

It can roll up and fold down to a rather small size which makes it easy to place in my diaper bag. This is rather impressive considering it has quite a bit of padding to ensure comfort for both parent and kiddo.

It was also incredibly soft to the touch- this made me feel more confident that it would be okay touching my son’s sensitive newborn skin. Ergobaby definitely makes it easy to know how to put the carrier on! Not only does it come with an instruction booklet that has multiple easy to follow photo instructions, but there are tags on the carrier itself that show how to put it on, and you can easily find videos from Ergobaby’s YT channel that show someone putting it on in action.

I have only used one way of wearing it so far, since my son is only a few days old (newborn carry), but I already feel confident in the other methods of wearing it because the videos and photos are so easy to follow.

Once I got it on, I was shocked by how comfortable it was. Not only did it only take about 3 minutes to put it on for the first time (impressive since I had to adjust all the straps that first time too!), but the spreadable shoulder straps were really amazing for dispersing my son’s weight to the point that I feel like I’m not even carrying him or holding him in it at all.

He went into it and immediately went to sleep. In fact, he’s sleeping on my chest, in the carrier, as I write this review. It perfectly allows him to have healthy posture and relaxes his head on my chest so he can hear my heartbeat and get a little bit of skin to skin time.

I have used pretty much any carrier and wrap you can think of over the past 11 years, and this one is absolutely perfect for the newborn stage. It has all the benefits of a wrap, but the structure, comfort, and security of a carrier.

I absolutely recommend this to everyone! Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for allowing me to have this amazing carrier in exchange for my honest review. I can honestly say it has made my life quite a bit easier to have my hands free, and my back comfortable, these first few days.

My newborn is super fussy always wants to be held. But as a mother and wife, there’s always housework to be done. The traditional baby carriers are always to big for him since he was a preemie. I decided to give a baby wrap a try.

I didn’t want to spend an absurd amount of money on a piece of fabric since I didn’t even know if I was going to like It or not so I went with the Acrobros baby wrap. And let me tell you, It’s a game changer! This wrap is super comfortable and the fabric is lightweight and breathable.

After a few tries, I got the hang of the wrap and it was super easy to put on and take off. It holds my baby snuggly but not to tight. And i can totally be hands free while holding my little one close.

I got the wrap in black and it looks super chic. Plus, the wrap was under $20 bucks. You cannot beat that! GET this wrap.

This carrier is amazing! I had such trouble with other wraps and slings—either too tough to wrap/tie or asymmetrical and uncomfortable for me and baby. This is so easy to put on and my baby loves all 3 ways I’ve worn her—kangaroo, hug, and outward facing.

She often only naps in this…drives me crazy sometimes but at least it is comfortable for me. The extra pouch/tie helps lower the weight distribution so it’s not all on my shoulders—I wrap it around her in front, feed the ties through the back loop, then bring them around front to tie a bow.

The manual didn’t say anything about feeding the toes through the back loop but it sure makes it more comfortable and doesn’t compromise the safety of the carrier.

I purchased this for the birth of my second child, hoping it would be an “easy” alternative to my Moby wrap (which I find to be comfortable but annoying to deal with so much fabric every time. ) The Baby K’tan has been disappointing.

I purchased an XS based on the fit chart (and had the fit confirmed by a fit specialist) and it is so so uncomfortably tight. It takes a lot of maneuvering and spreading of fabric to get my 3. 5 week baby into a position that is tolerable for both of us, taking away from the “ease” of use.

Once in the optional hug position, the fabric still cuts into my sides painfully. I can’t fully lift the fabric up over my shoulders without it being even tighter, so my arm movement is very restricted.

It’s nice that they offer fitting appointments, but 15 min was barely enough time. I felt as if the specialist was just rushing me through the steps without listening to my concerns and blaming any discomfort on my stress level.

(Who wouldn’t be stressed while feeling painfully squeezed by fabric and not being able to take a deep breathe as you try to get a fussing infant into a wrap?) I can’t see how this will fit any better as my baby grows bigger.

I’m a mom who’s very experienced with baby wraps and carriers. I use different kinds of wraps for different occasions. So I was excited to add this to my collection. I watched several tutorials up to 10 times and still couldn’t get this to sit well.

I just don’t know what Im doing wrong to make this so inconvenient. The Moby video tutorial skips so many important details when showing how to thread the material thru the rings. Because the first three times I did it, the panels laid backward, not forward pulling.

They don’t show you how to do it efficiently. First off, the fabric will always bunch up in the rings no matter how many times you set it flat whenever you pull or loosen the panels. That’s just a given.

So the fabric will never be truly flat. Second, when your baby is in, and there’s one side loose, you have to pull the opposite side to tighten it, but it does not! It will tighten around your hip and the rings will dig into your sides, but the panel under baby’s butt will remain loose.

This jersey type fabric does not work for rings. That’s why ring slings always use more woven textures. The 3rd separate panel you have to put on yourself not only will get lost when you’re on the go, but is basically useless because you won’t put it on tight enough to actually provide security.

It’s just for show, to put the label in front for advertisement. No baby wrap should sell itself if the third layer of security isn’t already built in. Overall, I never felt comfortable or secure having baby in this.

An experienced baby wearing mama couldn’t figure this out so I doubt any new person ever could.

so much material, it’s kind of overwhelming to be honest it could be shorter in length. over all it seems to be a breathable material but dont be fooled, your little one will get warm and probably shouldn’t be in it for too long.

it takes a while to figure out how tight to make it on your body to make sure that your baby is secure. watching multiple videos helped with how to tie but it still is a lot at first. my little one is a month old and it seems like a good product to go shopping in but wouldn’t recommend for long periods of time bc it does loosen up, and she got super sweaty after only 10min of being worn.

I also wouldn’t recommend doing dishes while wearing this, or bending over forward a little bit at all, unless you’re wearing an older baby, their heads arent all that secure.

I really wanted to like this wrap, but neither my baby or I like it at all. The only things I like about it are it’s soft and the pattern is cute. While I’ve figured the wrapping technique out, it’s so cumbersome to put together.

I can’t hold her in it for more than 20 minutes or my back starts hurting, my structured carrier works so much better for this. Our baby pretty much hates being in it which makes hard because she flails around so much I have to have one hand holding her head in place…which defeats the purpose of me wearing her.

It just comes down to personal preference for you and your baby, it’s not for us. I also think it’s a lot of money for a really long piece of stretchy fabric, but that’s me.

I am in love with this wrap! It is SO convenient and my newborn just loves being snuggled up to me in this. Makes it easy to shop, clean, walk and still carry baby. My 5 week old is super alert and likes to be out and about and loves to look around (when he is awake) so this is perfect for him.

I also have received compliments from someone in every place that I’ve worn this outside of my home with folks telling me how cute, cool, ext this wrap is. My baby is secure and although it’s summer, he’s not too warm in the wrap because the fabric is breathable.

My only downside is that my son is SO active that he pops his little head out when I secure him to the side and sometimes I have to walk holding his neck until he falls asleep and I secure his head again.

Also, I had to YouTube several tutorials before I felt comfortable to wrap baby on my own. Looking back, the directions included are sufficient, but I needed a visual since this is essentially a very long piece of cloth (smile).

This Bump & Beyond T-Shirt Wrap is awesome! I love that you can wear this wrap while pregnant as well as when you have your little one! This wrap helps to support your belly and your back while you are pregnant.

Once your little one arrives, it allows you to have that skin to skin contact! I love that I can nurse my little one while wearing this wrap. It is super convenient and saves so much time and hassle! This wrap is super simple to put on and super comfortable! The material is very lightweight and breathable.

This fabric is very durable as I have washed this a few times and it comes out as good as new! This wrap always stays tight and my little one always feels secure! My little one loves being nestled in this wrap, he keeps him so content.

I also appreciate that the wrap goes up to 19 pounds so I know I will be able to use this wrap for at least a few more months! The fit of the wrap was perfect and true to size. I recommend the Bump & Beyond T-Shirt Wrap to anyone who has a little one as well as anyone who is currently expecting! This wrap would also make a fantastic baby shower gift!.

I do really love it, it is SO much better than a structured carrier for my little guy, my only problem, and I’m not sure if this is just because my kiddo is so alert and strong, is that he doesn’t seem very keen to sleep in it.

The only time he’s done so was when he was very sick, but otherwise he just holds his head up and looks around, even when I know he’s super tired. However it fits everyone so that’s great, it’s fantastic quality, warm, breathable and super comfy.

Takes a little getting used to how to wrap it, but I’m getting faster and I love that I can put it on before I leave home and chuck Bub in straight from the car.

The Boba wrap is so buttery soft and stretchy. Pregnant with my second baby & decided to practice putting it on & put my 1. 5 year old in and he loved it! Before it arrived, wrapping correctly seemed overwhelming but it is so easy to do with the included instructions & the video tutorial by The Sleep Store.

The Bloom colour is the most beautiful shade of dusty pink. Couldn’t rate this wrap enough!.

Absolutely love this wrap! Was a great tool when my bubs was teeny and couldn’t fit comfortably in other front packs yet. I got the hang of wrapping it really quickly and found it easier to get on than front packs with clips etc.

Only issue I found is it can get quite hot on summer days so I found myself wearing it without a top on underneath, or bubs and I would end up a little sweaty! Fine on cooler days though and it’s nice and easy to wash if you do get a bit hot in it.

I really wanted to love this, and I do use it. but not as often as I was hoping. While the directions for tying at pretty good, it’s just a tricky maneuver. The length of fabric is overwhelming and I feel like I’m flying a kite in parking lots when I whip it out… I’m average to small in the waist and I use most all the fabric…and my baby’s still small.

The fabric is also pretty thick, which makes it strong (yay!) and it does feel secure on, but also toasty for baby, I often just worry about him being too warm. i don’t know if I can’t attribute this to the specific product or the entire “wrap” concept.

While I like them aesthetically so much more, I have to admit, practically speaking, I prefer my “backpack” style carrier.

I use this every single day as I have a little hobby farm. Little one happily sits in it while I feed the animals and do a little clean up. Very easy to use, I looked up videos on how to properly wrap up baby on Pinterest, and I love the different ways to style it! It is also very fashionable, and have gotten so many compliments and questions about it when I’m out and about! I love this trendy pattern! It’s gender neutral too, so I can use it for any baby down the road.

I love this wrap!!!! I have been using this around the house when I need to keep my baby close, she falls asleep so fast in it or if she isn’t tired she is so content in the wrap and it’s great for skin to skin time on the move too.

It’s super easy to use! The only disadvantage is that the material is pretty thick when bunched up so it is hard for me to nurse her if I am still wearing the wrap, so there is a lot of undoing it, nursing, and then tying it up again after but I’m a new mom so maybe I just need to figure out the right angles for breastfeeding while wearing it! But this has totally saved me and been perfect for my baby who loves being held all the time!.

I love this hybrid carrier and use it every day with my 1 month old (and sometimes with my 20-month-old, too! I was very comfortable using this with my newborn. I followed the included instructions and fit her in perfectly on my first try.

I was concerned using the bolster would be difficult, as I’ve had difficulty using infant inserts with other carriers in the past, but it is no problem and actually quite easy. It’s incredibly comfortable and my little one will stay in it for hours, and I can keep a snug, comfortable fit the entire time.

She struggles to nap on her own, so I pop her in the carrier daily and she falls asleep almost immediately. I love keeping her close while still having my hands free to take care of my older 2 and get stuff done around the house.

I love the soft, stretchy fabric and the overall design of this carrier; I get the closeness of a wrap without all of the stress of figuring out how to get it on. Practically my entire wardrobe is gray, so the gray color of this carrier was perfect.

I loved the sportier style of this wrap, thanks to the mesh and athletic type fabric, it fit perfectly with my low maintenance style of leggings, joggers, or jeans. As an added bonus, this will also carry my 20-month-old (who is small for her age).

She insists on being in it like the baby, so I carry her in it from time to time as well. My husband also uses this carrier, and really likes that it helps make it easier for him to get some quality snuggle time with the baby.

A few drop backs to this carrier are the long straps and the fact that it can’t be folded down really compact and doesn’t come with a carrying case. I’m quite petite, 5’, and while I love that I can actually get a good fit with this carrier, the straps are super long and tend to get in the way sometimes.

I also wish it could fold down more compact and had a carrying case (possibly built in, somehow) to make it easier to to take on the go. Shorter straps would make it more compact, so that would solve both of my problems! I’m really impressed with this carrier and think Boppy has added an amazing product to this area of baby wear.

I found it to be just about perfect for both me and my baby. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this newborn carrier.

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this awesome newborn carrier! I was thrilled to try a new to the market carrier as I have a 2 month old that I am trying to “baby wear” a bit more and he doesn’t love the two I already have.

My first impression on the packaging was that it was minimalist and I loved the strip of material incorporated so you can feel the material of the carrier before you even open the box. Once opened I was able to easily unfold the carrier and get started! The directions are simple to follow and there is a video I watched for extra help.

Even though the directions are easy to follow there is definitely a learning curve to be able to get the wrap part of the carrier down pat; I had to try plenty of times to get it right but I finally did.

The carrier wears very well and the material is very soft and feels high quality. I do love that the carrier has tank top like straps for the shoulders because it makes it more comfortable to wear than other wrap like carriers.

My baby weighs about 12 pounds and I could carry him around for an hour around the house with no problem. I haven’t carried him for much longer than that as I’ve used this carrier to mainly get things done around the house or to take the dog for a quick walk around the block.

My mom also tried the carrier out to go walking outside and she thought it was very comfortable as well and she said the carrier was very secure which is also super important! As for the style, I liked the minimalist design and the mesh panel which is unique in my mind and that is one of my favorite features of the carrier.

I also love that it makes my baby feel super close to me which is always great! I received the frost color and it’s a perfect neutral light gray which matches almost everything. I also appreciate that there are not a bunch of buckles or straps to mess with or look at.

The minimalist style makes it not bulky which is my style. I did not use the bolster yet but it’s not even as bulky as I expected. One complaint I have about the carrier is that I wish it was easier to adjust as I found it hard to make a quick adjustment when needed and at times had to completely re-do the process which is just inconvenient, especially if baby is sleeping.

Overall I am very pleased with this carrier and luckily my baby is enjoying it too! If you are looking for a sleek carrier that you can wear comfortably then this newborn carrier is for you!.

Thank you to the Stellar Parent Panel for gifting us this great newborn carrier! With four kids, we have tried many different variations and styles of baby carriers. As soon as I opened the Boppy ComfyHug Hybrid carrier, I was intrigued and excited by the design and fabric.

The material is very stretchy, soft and feels like high quality athletic wear or yoga pants. The ComfyHug feels like the merging of two of my favorite carriers, soft structured and mei tei. Both styles of carriers have their pros and cons and I’ve used both during different seasons of a baby’s growth.

One of the pain points I’ve found with wrap, sling or mei tei style carriers is that when a baby is little you have to really hold her with one hand while using the other hand to wrap and secure all of the long fabric pulls.

What I LOVE about the ComfyHug is the tank top style seat that holds baby to my chest while I am able to use BOTH arms to wrap the fabric around me for a secure fit. My husband and I were both able to use this carrier with our three month old and found it very easy to put on and take off.

He is tall and lanky and I am over average height and build. As soon as we each put on the ComfyHug we commented on how comfortable it felt and that we appreciated it isn’t bulky and awkward but sleek and simple.

We mostly used this carrier for doing stuff around the house or calming our fussy baby when she was tired. After about a half hour of walking around and doing light housework (dishes, putting things away) we both noted that our shoulders started to hurt with the weight of our baby.

We have been adjusting the fit and trying to find the right way to each wear for our body types. But at this point, after multiple times wearing the ComfyHug, I would not choose to use this carrier for longer walks or out of the house.

It is a great way to keep baby close and have my hands free for short spurts but I truly wish it felt more comfortable for longer.

Purchased this wrap carrier to make holding my baby easy while doing homework for school or working from home. It’s very sturdy, and makes baby comfortable being right against your chest. The instructions the carrier came with were very clear and easy to Understand, I like that they provided photos along with the directions, after a few uses you become a pro at how to best position your baby:) is also super handy to have when picking my older son up from school, I no longer have to take the whole car seat and stroller down just to walk in to pick up my son, all the moms at the school love it and were even more excited when they heard the price of this item.

Extremely satisfied and will be purchasing as gifts for my expecting friends in the coming months. Every mother needs this! Especially ones that are on the go in or out of the home, or have other children!.

I am a nanny for a 7 month old. My hips, shoulders and arms have been killing me as he’s quite colicky and fussy and needs to be held often. This takes the weight off my hips, allows me to stand up straighter, and he loves the soft texture of the carrier unlike his more structured carrier.

I wish I had gotten this months ago, and I will be using this from the get-go with my own children to save the strain on my body. YOU NEED THIS CARRIER. Great price also, affordable, lightweight, easy to use and comfortable to wear all day.

Great for when you need to fix a bottle but they won’t let you set them down! Mostly hands free.

I was a little nervous to try a wrap like this but my daughter and I both love it! She is totally secure and it is very comfortable for both of us. When she was a newborn, she would often cry until I put her in the wrap and snuggled her close.

I have noticed that she gets a bit warm, but that is to be expected since she’s bundled up close to me. Neither of us feel overheated in it. The packaging includes instructions on how to tie the wrap and it is much easier than I thought.

It’s not too difficult to get her in and out of it, either. I like that I get a custom fit with this wrap. I am a bit top heavy and I don’t feel squeezed while wearing this!.

Where to begin. 1. 0 back support, holy cow. 2. Baby looks incredibly uncomfortable. From it being super tight around his legs, leaving red marks, to being tight around his upper arms. I mean it’s almost like he couldn’t even put his whole right arm in comfortably.

3. There’s the little attachment that helps clip baby in on the right side. OH MY GOD THIS IS THE WORST PART. Clipping him in isn’t TOO bad, but unclipping it is a literal nightmare. There’s is nothing more frustrating than struggling with both hands, one arm around baby, using all of your strength, having your baby scream crying at you because he’s uncomfortable, just to unclip that thing.

and the first few times I couldn’t even do it! I mean, like a previous reviewer said- you get what you pay for. Literally splurge a bit and get a better one because this is NOTTTT worth it!!! I normally only review things when it’s good, but I had to let other moms know.

I love my Evenflo Breath Carrier Marianna! I wish I had this with my other kiddos. It is perfect if you are on the go like I am. I am always either running errands, dropping off my other kids at games, making dinner, or doing work and this is perfect to keep my baby right next to me and she loves it too! It’s has two carrying positions forward facing and back facing.

The forward facing is perfect when they can’t hold their little heads up that well-there is a nice soft backing and I love that they have more mommy or daddy contact forward facing too! As they get older you can have them face out and my baby girl loves it because she can see everything I am doing.

The carrier is machine washable and comes with an removable bib in the front. I love the extra padding in the shoulder for us parents, it keeps my shoulders from hurting and allows me to carrier my daughter for longer periods of time.

The crisscrossing also saves my back. The side buckle is such a lifesaver as well. Perfect quick way to get your baby out if he or she messes him or herself without having to take the carrier off. This is a great carrier and I love it! It was worth it and I would buy it over and over again.

I like that I don’t have to do the first couple of steps with a traditional Moby wrap, especially since I’m only 5’1 and the length of the fabric usually touches the ground several times before I can get it wrapped properly.

Overall, it’s pretty good, but there are a couple things that prevent it from getting a 5-star review: 1. Unable to adjust the fabric over the shoulders; it sometimes feels like she gets a little too low and I can’t tighten the shoulder pieces to pull her up higher.

2. The fabric used for baby’s legs has a border on the fabric that isn’t stretchy like the rest of the fabric; similar to the outer seam of underwear. As a result, it seems to press into baby’s thighs more than the traditional Moby fabric that’s just stretchy all around with no seams.

Baby doesn’t seem to mind so far, but I haven’t worn it for more than 20 mins, and I imagine that part in particular might get uncomfortable the longer it’s used.

I love this wrap! I love baby wearing but being in AZ it’s so hot and I tend to feel claustrophobic in most wraps and we both are quickly uncomfortable due to overheating. I have tried several different wraps and carriers.

This wrap is super breathable and SO comfortable! I wore my 20 pounder for hours with no back pain or discomfort, and we weren’t abnormally hot. I love that this carrier feels like a fabric wrap but has more stability and also allows your little one to face outward safely.

Thrilled with this wrap and just bought another color!.

I do not recommend this product. I have watched every instruction video and follow the manual and I can not get it to look like the picture so whenever I’m wearing baby all I can think about is that her hips and back must not be sitting correctly.

I’ve tried so many times and every time I’ve tried it I have to wrap it multiple times before I’m happy to put her in and it still doesn’t seem comfortable. It’s also so hard to get baby in or out so there’s no way she’s sleeping through it.

Do not waste your money, if I had the money I’d be buying a different one from a different brand.

I just recently had my 3rd baby, my first two were born in the winter months, so my regular Moby wrap worked just fine. However, with this baby being born in june, i wanted something lightweight that i could carry him around in and not worry about him being uncomfortable or too hot.

This Wrap is Amazing! Its got just enough stretch that it holds baby in well without coming to loose, and the material is thin enough that my baby doesnt sweat while im wearing him! I definitely recommend this wrap, especially for those summer babies!.

Love my baby wraps but the material on this one is very thin. The width of the wrap also seems a little short compared to others. I still use it but I know as my baby gets bigger I’ll be using some of my wider wraps that work a little better.

Wrap is soft and the print is nice though!.

I honestly don’t know how I would survive parenting my little guy without the Solly. I use it every single day. He can go from screaming and inconsolable to calm and content within seconds (literally seconds) of being put in the Solly.

He’s slept through: loud music at church, fireworks, walking down a very chaotic Broadway Street in Nashville, chores around the house, making dinner and much more because he feels so secure in it. When we go on trips I make sure I have two things: my Solly and diapers.

My husband and I joke (but really, it’s true) all the time those are really the only two things we have to have. I’m not normally one to hand out unsolicited advice, but I tell everyone I know who is expecting a baby that they need a Solly.

I truly can’t rave about it enough.

If you are like me and love your structured carrier, but want something softer for at home use then you’ll love this wrap. The material is so soft and has just the right amount of stretch. The instruction videos make it very easy to figure out.

After a few uses I feel very confident in my wrapping abilities. I think the key to using wraps is to not give up and keep trying and practicing! Highly recommend this particular wrap over other brands.

Love the soft thin fabric. Never gets us sweaty like my boba did with my first, but has the same comfortable wear and more comfortable fabric. If you’re debating between the two, know that I threw my boba away because my baby hated it so much on the summer.

You do have to learn how to do the wrap and I needed video tutorials to help me but it’s worth it. I just wish I didn’t have to wash it daily because every time I put it on she throws up because she has bad reflux.

Note this picture was when I was trying to get help troubleshooting my wrapping. I also have a k’tan and I guess I’m sensitive because I cannot tolerate the rough feel of the cotton fabric on that, and I’m between sizes so the smaller one I selected is too tight.

Wrapping is easier to custom fit and with the pocket the solly has it can be made compact and easy to transport.

I have a couple other wrap slingss and we like them, they are just a lot of work compared to this one. This one is so easy after you get it put together from taking it out of the packaging and adjust it to you.

With other wraps you have to untie and re wrap to adjust. This one you just pull the fabric near the rings then just like that, a little tighter fit. The fact that it comes in 2 parts is great too cause I can just stick my baby in the main part to calm him down around the house.

Grandma enjoys the wrap as well and likes to nap with baby in it haha.

Overall I recommend this carrier, but I prefer my boba wrap over it. But my boba wrap makes me and the baby soo hot. The mom cozy wrap is very light weight and perfect for summer. We don’t get hot in it at all.

It’s very fast to put on. My only complaint is it puts a lot of pressure on my upper back/neck. I never feel any of this pressure with my boba wrap. I’ll most likely use this mom cozy wrap when it’s really hot and use my boba wrap the other times.

My baby is very comfortable in it and the price is great!.

My baby was too small for the original carrier I bought since he was 5 weeks early. I wanted something in the meantime to hold us over until he gained more weight. This allowed me to hold my son while also allowing my arms to be free.

Overall this is a good lightweight/less bulky option to baby wear with less of a learning curve compared to other baby wraps. I also like that it is adjustable to fit different people rather than needing a separate size for my husband.

We love our Moby wraps. This purchase replaced my original Moby wrap purchased 12 years ago. I purchased it for my ds and many rave recommendations from baby-wearing friends. It was a black wrap with a black and white floral print panel in front.

The silk panel seam ripped. After two children and about three years of use through both, I was surprised by the longevity of the Moby. When I went to use it with my dd, who was just a week old, it ripped.

I told my husband that I’d be buying a new one. We had the conversation about the fact that there are faux Moby wraps and we wanted to be sure it was a genuine Moby due to quality and longevity of the previous wrap.

Thank you Moby for a great product.

Got this after the boba wrap because it was so hot and I wanted a lighter weight material – Moby definitely delivered! I took my son for a walk with a friend, we ended up doing 3. 2 miles and he slept the whole time.

It was hot, but the Moby didn’t overheat me! I also adore the Winnie the Pooh design!.

Favorite carrier, and I have a few and tried a few more. This is my main carrier for around the house and going out. There was a learning curve for me, and it takes some time to put on (although now it’s much faster and I put it on before outings and also make sure he’s in a good mood so he’s not crying the whole time I’m trying to put it on).

I really recommend watching all of the wonderful instructional and tip videos solly makes on facebook/instagram. Solly baby also repeatedly answered my questions about how to wear my baby, even looking at photos of us to see if everything looked right.

Now that I’m on my way to mastering it, it is easy, and feels very secure and comfortable for baby too (even since birth – some of the other carriers are either unsafe or seem uncomfortable for young infants).

Added bonus is that in the early weeks, when we wanted to take our baby out, but we didn’t want people touching him or asking to hold him yet, if he was in the solly baby wrap, he was peacefully asleep and nobody thought of wanting to disturb him and get him out.

It’s like a protective cocoon/swaddle, and covers everything but baby’s head. As soon as I put him in the solly baby wrap, he usually falls asleep quickly, and even if he doesn’t, he’s just content to walk around with me and look at things.

Both my baby and I got sweaty during this hot summer when baby wearing, but I really appreciate the thin/breathable solly material, I can’t imagine how hot and sweaty we would get in a heavier wrap. It also looks beautiful, the soft material, the colors.

It’s much easier to wash than any heavier/structured carriers, and that’s a big bonus because it gets sucked on and spit up on a lot and sometimes even diaper incidents occur. There are some spots that aren’t coming out in the wash, so if I cared about it looking perfect, I would choose a patterned wrap to hide any baby stains, or work harder to get the spots out in the laundry.

But, I love the camel brown color I got and it goes with everything, so I personally wouldn’t prefer a pattern. Support wise, my back feels great when I’m wearing him. I tried another carrier that was supposed to be great for new infants, and was easier to put on/get him in, but my back and shoulders started hurting within 10 minutes.

Thanks to solly baby wrap, my baby spends most of his daytime naps cuddled close to me, and our pediatrician said that being worn a lot during the day ultimately helps him sleep better at night in his crib, which he is doing a great job of at 2 months.

One last thing (because there are so many positives to write about), I had a tough recovery and a heavy baby, it would not have been possible for me to carry and hold my baby as much as I did without the solly baby wrap, it makes a heavy baby light! Thanks so much!!.

I love this wrap! So lightweight, soft and breathable. My baby loves it and it calms her down almost instantly. It has been a lifesaver as well – I have a very active 2 year old and my baby doesn’t like being in the car seat/stroller, so it has enabled me to keep taking my eldest to the park and on walks and even to just get jobs done round the house.

I liked using a wrap with my first baby. But I don’t know what I’d do without it for my second! Also I love the colour. To be honest, when I first opened the box and pulled it out, I thought to myself “why did I just pay nearly $100 (I live in Canada so exchange rate + shipping) for a piece of brown fabric? Why didn’t I at least choose a pattern?” But when I put it on, I adored it.

The colour goes with literally everything. 10/10 would buy again.

I’ve used my T&B wrap for about 2. 5 months now and overall am happy with my purchase. Pros – it’s extremely lightweight material so in the Florida heat, this has been amazing; after a small learning curve, this has been fairly quick and easy to put on and use; it’s very comfortable for both me and baby – she can sleep for hours in this thing! Cons – the area around the leather T&B tag got stretched out and loose after the first few uses; when you put on the wrap, you can’t avoid it dragging on the ground for a bit since it’s so long which is not so ideal when you’re putting it on outside; overall I think the wrap could benefit from being a bit shorter as I have to wrap it around my waste several times (but I am also petite so this could be why); once you take baby out of the wrap everything gets very loose so you have to pretty much redo the entire wrap to make it nice and tight again.

I’m obsessed with the baby-wearing lifestyle. I wore my daughter until she was about 18 months. So I knew I wanted to wear my son also. Are used to have several colors of the movie rap and this time around I decided to try something new.

Tuck and bundle came up as an advertisement on my Facebook and I was immediately drawn to their designs and colors. Unfortunately several that I wanted were sold out and not knowing when they would restock, I shows the favorite of the options that were available.

I had high expectations because this T&B was more expensive than my Moby. The length is perfect, I really like the brand name, And the design looked the same as it did in the photo. But the Fabric does not give or stretch at all.

This is probably the most important factor when baby wearing. The baby needs to feel snug and close in a tight wrap but needs stretch for movement and for comfort. If only the Moby wrap had the colors and designs that tuck and bundle had, it would be the perfect combination!.

i bought my tuck and bundle a few months ago. i am pregnant with my 5th child and i am excited to say i will be a first time baby wearing momma. i am 38 weeks pregnant but of course i decided to practice on my cousins new born baby and wore him around Meijer for about an hour.

i was impressed that i was able to wear him for an hour while pregnant and my back did not get wore out. last night i let my cousin use it for trick or treating and she is a heavy set woman with back issues and she was completely comfortable the whole 2 hours.

i would say i am impressed so far. i have only ever had a baby sling in the past and i become uncomfortable fast in them so definitely worth the purchase.

The Free to Grow carrier is very comfortable for my son. It’s the second Tula I’ve owned, but my last one was bought almost eight years ago and that one required a rolled blanket inside to lift up my newborns.

This one is easy to put on, typically soothes my little guy to sleep, and frees up my hands to take care of my other four kids. My only dislike is the arm straps— I’m not sure if it’s because I’m on the petite side (5’3”), but they rub uncomfortably and slightly pinch the backs of my arms.

If I wear a long sleeve shirt it’s not as bad, but I live in a hot climate and typically have on tank tops. I like that not only is the front panel mesh, but so is the hood. It definitely helps with overheating.

The carrier is really easy to get on, even with a brand new baby, and I can totally adjust everything without help from another person. Shipping is really quick. In the world of Amazon prime, you can’t help but appreciate a relatively fast arrival time.

The carrier did have a very odd, unpleasant smell when it first came that necessitated a run through the wash. For all of the carriers I’ve tried, this is probably my favorite, the arm pinching seems to happen across the board.

I wish someone could solve this!.

The carrier is made to grow with your baby. You can use this with your newborn all the way to toddlerhood. I like the material of the carrier. Specially living in Florida , it is necessary to have a breathable and soft material as baby can become sweaty and hot.

The quality of the material is also good and durable. I like that you can position your baby in different positions. It was a bit difficult for me to set it up the first time I uses it. It takes a bit of trial and error.

My newborn seemed too small for it as the top of the carrier was in a bad spot and my baby was not comfortable. Maybe I didn’t correctly set it up. My favorite feature is that you can utilize different positions depending on your child’s age.

Overall this carrier is something that would last a couple of years and even for your second or third child! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this carrier to test and review!.

I have had this for a few babies now (purchased elsewhere before Nordstrom carried them) and I LOVE it. It is something that you need in addition to your more bulky carrier. This one is so great for around the house or if you want to be wearing baby while out at a restaurant or somewhere you need to be able to sit down.

I find I can’t sit in my Ergo very well. Solly is not great for walking briskly, I find that it stretches a bit and baby slides down too much when I’m walking fast (this is when I feel more comfortable in a more structured carrier like Ergo.

) The material is silky soft and lightweight in summer heat. Washes and dries perfectly! It’s a little intimidating to figure out how to wrap, but the Solly website has a great tutorial video and it’s very simple!.

I really hesitated buying this wrap as I already have a classic moby wrap. Well baby number 2 is now here and the moby wrap was feeling too tight, restrictive and was making baby too hot inside it. Since some kind of carrier is essential for life with a newborn and toddler I decided to give the solly baby a try.

The lighter fabric prevents baby from overheating and the fabric is stretchier and easier to handle than the heavier moby wrap. They are about the same length, so this does not solve the problem of dragging fabric on the ground when putting the wrap on (a real problem outside).

I still think it’s a ton of money for a long piece of fabric, but I am happy to have something to allow me to be hands free to chase down my toddler.

I bought this for my newborn. I previously used a different brand of wrap with my son. That wrap was a lot thicker material and would have been way too hot for summer time. The material in this wrap is lightweight and soft and the perfect amount of stretchy but strong.

This wrap was much easier to tie than the other one I had with thicker material. And the pink is so cute! Would highly recommend!.
