i absolutely love the versatility of this wrap, and the fact that it protects my baby from the blazing texas sun, he is so comfy in it and it really stops my back from hurting, much more support than my evenflo carrier.Customer Review: Cannot LIVE without my Moby.
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I agreed: if we had to choose one item that we really couldn't do without since having our baby 2 months ago, it's our Moby wrap!
Our first week home from the hospital, we were able to go out to lunch with the baby wrapped up and completely covered in the Moby. It's given us a sense of freedom that we never thought we could have once she was born, because we can comfortably take her anywhere that we want to go. I can't count how many times I've gone out to eat or shopping with her wrapped up on me!
It might be because she's so used to it now, but it's so comfortable for her, she falls asleep almost immediately once she's in it. And, perhaps even more importantly, my husband and I can both wear her in it for hours on end without any back pain. I use it at least once a day, just around the house, when she's getting overtired or overstimulated... She fights me for a second, and then falls right to sleep.
It's easy to use once you've done it a couple of times... Getting the feel for the perfect tightness takes about a week of using it. Once you figure out that sweet spot, though... It's just perfect.
We also have an Ergo carrier with an infant insert, and even though the Ergo might be a little more sturdy for walking long distances, our baby really doesn't like it nearly as much, and it's really not as comfortable as the Moby.
Customer Review: Super comfortable
Summary: 4 Stars
This does take a little more effort to put on than my Maya ring sling, but once you get the hang of it it's pretty quick. I didn't use it much when my little guy was first born as I didn't find it easy to put him in the 'newborn hold' by myself, but as soon as he had some head control I started using the 'hug hold' a lot. He's now 3-1/2 months and 14 lbs.
Pros:
It's really comfortable to wear.
Distributes weight evenly, so I can wear it longer than a ring sling.
The fabric is soft, and has stayed that way after washing several times.
My little guy is happy in it and often falls asleep in it.
Cons:
I have to undo it to get my son in his preferred nursing position, which takes a moment or two longer than he'd like.
My husband wishes it was a bit longer so it would fit him too (only comes in one size).
Customer Review: Best baby carrier EVER...from experienced mom of 3
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a Moby D, but I bought this one for my mom. I have tried several carriers and the Mobys are the best for several reasons. 1) they are the most comfortable for mom AND baby. 2) they put other carriers to shame because Moby can hold baby in any position while other carriers are limited to two positions at best. 3) it is ergonomic, meaning it is good for mom's body by using the entire back and hips and shoulders to support baby's weight 4) easy to clean! Throw it in the washer and dryer and go! 5) it looks great! I wear it without a shirt underneith and no one can even tell. 6) you can use it for nursing, but it requires either smallish [...] of some finesse 7) the sun blocking quality of this particular wrap makes it a real must-have. 8) you can wear it all day.
I plan to buy several in different colors...and at the bargain price that they sell for, its well worth the investment!
Customer Review: I LOVE this wrap!
Summary: 5 Stars
I now have three boys, when my second one was young, we were introduced to the concept of baby wearing, I wished I had known about it sooner, he is a special needs child and would have really benefited from babywearing right from the start. I used to use a non adjustable sling (new native style) it was good for the hip hold and it worked for the time, but, my shoulders and back were always sore. But, for the sake of my munchkin and because I believed in babywearing I soldiered on. Now my third one is three weeks old. I had tried a sling again and it just wasn't working. He didn't like it much because he couldn't be upright and looking around (he loves to see what's going on) and again, it was already making my shoulder and back sore even though he's only 10 lbs.
So I went online to look for more options and ran into the moby wraps. I have only had this wrap for a week, but have used it for several hours every day. There are several different positions that can be used, it is incredibly versitile, if your child doesn't like one position, don't worry, there's pleanty more to try. It also comes with a handy little carrying case so when you're done with your wrap, you can roll it up and put it in the carry case, it rolls down very compactly. Very easy to carry around even when not in use. Best of all, it's SO comfortable! No pain, soreness, or stiffness when wearing or when I'm done, it distributes the weight so well!
My son naps when I'm in with him, and a little on his own, but is more likely to wake up often. With this wrap, he naps wherever I am while I'm able to have both hands free to do things with my older boys and around the house. It has also made shopping a breeze. Wearing the baby leaves the basket and seat open for either merchendise, or my other boys. I can't say enough good things about the moby wrap.
