Baby Wrap Carrier – Original Baby Sling Carrier for Newborns (7–35 lbs), Soft, Secure, Hands-Free & Ergonomic, Ideal for Comfortable Bonding, New Parents (Grey)

I initially purchased the Balboa baby sling from BuyBuyBaby (my other favorite baby gear store) but returned it within one week because I hated it because my baby hated it! The sling was difficult to get right for my then 6 week old who was too young to put in that contraption - no matter how tight I made the sling (which for those of you who have tried it, once you make it that tight to fit a tiny tiny person, it is extremely difficult to get off - especially when your baby is wailing!) I tried that thing a few times during that week but I never felt comfortable that no matter what I was doing, my baby was breathing properly and that it was safe. So I returned it. I initially did NOT want a long wrap with lots and lots of fabric that I had to figure out what to do with. Not to mention that I was uncomfortable with the thought that the fabric might unravel and that I might drop my baby! But after failing at one of those pre-made slings, I had to try something that I could make on my own and women had been using for centuries to carry their little ones. So I did a little bit of research on wraps and slings and narrowed it down to this or the Moby wrap from Amazon. I don't remember what I saw that made me select the Boba over the Moby (price maybe) but I went with this. So far this product is amazing! This is my favorite item next to my baby's car seat, here's why: 1. I can hold my baby super close to my heart and chest giving both me and my baby lots of comfort. I didn't realize how much I missed having that close connection with my baby during my pregnancy until I wore him in this for a couple of weeks and remembered that this little guy that i was hugging on the outside of my body was just inside my body a few short weeks ago. 2. The color in grey is nice and subtle and sometimes when I wear this wrap, it looks like its a cool part of my outfit (not really but at least I don't feel like i'm wearing a backpack). 3. I can wear the sling all day long. When I put baby in his car seat, I hop into the driver's seat and take off without unclipping/unwrapping/undoing anything. When I get to where I need to be, I just pop baby back in and we head off. I didn't realize how much mobility this offers me compared to a stroller but if you don't have one of these - you seriously need one. 4. BEST thing to get baby to go to sleep. You can wear this 3 ways from what I've seen so far (infant hug hold, cradle hold, and baby hug hold -where the baby's legs are dangling from the bottom). I use this in the cradle hold to get my baby to sleep and tuck him in the fabric to hold his head secure and his body snug to mine. With a few bouncy bouncy bouncies on a quick 2 minute walk, my baby is out for his nap! I love the concept of this baby carrier, which is why i gave it 5 stars. However, I am on the lookout for a cooler version of the wrap for the summer time as the material doesn't breathe very much and after an hour walking with my son, he gets too hot and sweaty (for those of you who are trying to figure that out, when you are hot and sweaty, so is your baby because heat transfers when you are holding your baby). If you currently do not have a baby carrier and have a newborn or infant less than 12 weeks - I HIGHLY recommend the wrap. it is perfect for you and your baby and is probably easier to get him accustomed to being in this early on rather than later on.

I will make an edit once I get the chance to actually use it; my baby is not yet here I still have 4 weeks to go. I have loved the idea of using wraps to baby wear for a VERY long time, and now that I’m going to have a little one I finally was able to buy one justifiably. One of my aunts got me a different company, so I will be comparing the two. This one, right off the bat you can tell is made with care. It came specially wrapped in a box with the company name. Folded nice and neat with a card with instructions on use sitting right on top. You flip over the first layer and there are two more cards. One is safety reminders not only of how to wear your baby, but instructing on how to prevent closed airways. And the second is a card that has their mission statement and a thank you for purchasing. Inside attached to the tag is a registration card for recall and warranty information. I bought the Sangria wrap, and the color is just gorgeous. It’s more vibrant than the picture implies, but that’s a good thing. It’s super soft and lightweight despite the amount of fabric involved. I’m really excited to try it. The other one (I don’t remember the name of the company, it was a $22ish one I added to my registry as I knew family would be unlikely to buy the more expensive brand. It’s gray and very comfortable to wrap. Light cotton jersey kind of material. It has the instructions printed on one end sewn to the fabric, and a tag that marks the center for where to place it when wrapping. It came with a drawstring bag for protection. I am definitely more impressed at this stage with the boba wrap. I will add to my review once my daughter is here and I can do more than try either on. (I will also be editing to add the name of the company for the second wrap I got) Edit: I have used this twice so far (4 weeks old now), and I have to say I absolutely love it. My recommendation though is to baby wear either with just the diaper or with a lightweight like gerber onesie without sleeves or legs. All the layers of cloth made her very warm to the touch. But keep in mind where you are…it’s currently January in Southern California for me. I would assume Minnesota or Alaska you would need many more layers than that. It supports her weight perfectly and makes it super easy to do things like eating. I love this wrap. I have not yet tried the other brand (jeroray or something like that) I got.

I have this carrier in two colors I love it so much! It isn’t difficult to put on and get baby in once you figure it out and have a little practice. I find it super comfortable for me to wear and really helps me get things done since baby loves it. It really is just one super long strip of fabric designed to this kind of carrier style, so don’t expect anything earth shattering, but fantastic quality material in my opinion. It’s great to fold up and stuff in the diaper bag. It also keeps baby super close so I’m not worried about other peoples germs or folks touching my baby! Be careful to use it correctly for safety since I could see how a baby could get hurt by no being able to breathe if not using properly.

This product was great for holding up little one. It was easy to wrap him up and keep him secure while walking around in town and on vacation. Great quality for good price. Washed and folds well and maintains softness. The ONlY thing is it is very warm for you as well. This is not optimal in hot weather as you get hot with the added layers. That is a minor issue for keeping baby safe and supported though.

Delivery of the product was on time.. love the fabric and the snug fit of the wrap... Baby loved the hold and that left me hands free to do all my work

SNSで見て、二つ目の抱っこ紐として購入。最初は付けるのに少し練習が必要ですが、慣れると簡単。どんな体型の人にも使えるのが良い。新生児の頃から使えるし、赤ちゃんも中でスヤスヤ眠ってくれました。泣き止まないとかはこれで抱っこしながら家事もできます。 デメリットは布が長いので外出先では巻き直しが困難なこと。巻き直ししないような近所への散歩や買い物、家の中の使用には最高です！

Ottima fascia di qualità. Il mio bebè si è fatto le migliori dormite all'interno. Soldi ben spesi soprattutto nei primi mesi, quando il bimbo non pesa troppo. Ora a 5,5 kg la uso ancora senza problemi

Coloris magnifique, superbe matière entre flexibilité et maintien.

Product received within the timeline and the quality is very good. Baby is super comfortable in it.
