baby wrap

keljackson

hey everyone!  I'm sorry i have been so MIA.  For the last week + i kept getting a "body required" error everytime I tried to post or respond to a post.  I fixed it today after much research and frustration

Anyway, are any of you using a baby carrier or wrap?  I have the LL cole one, the Mei tai and moby  My LO doesn't really like to face in.  She wants to see the world.  She is holding her head up great for a 1 1/2 month old.  

I'm going to the fabric store tomorrow to make another Moby.  It is so much cheaper to make one then buy one and you can pic the fabric and color you like.  If you want to make Jo Anne fabric has a 40% off one item right now, AWESOME!!!!  

If you make one, post a pic!

Glad to be back

I have the mei tai and the chicco front back. I feel like LO is to small for the chicco cause he flops all around, I LOVE my mei tai though!

I have the mei tai and love it too! M fits great and my cleavage is perfect for holding a pacifier lol.

I have made two no sew t-shirt carriers. I found the instructions online and I love it more than the Moby. It is so much easier to get on when out and about. Plus, lo falls asleep almost instantly when put on it.

I made a ring sling. It's OK, but I feel like its never quite right.

I bought a moby from a friend. I can tie it, but can't figure out how to get L in. I haven't really used it. I might ask a friend to teach me.

I also have a Beco Gemini (similar to the ergo, but faces in or out - we only use it in), L and I both love it! I use it around the house, and it actually puts her to sleep. Win-win! We both like it so much, I really have no desire to figure out the other carriers.

@rbturmpet try YouTube for videos in the moby, they helped me.

I use the moby, a maya wrap and the dreaded baby bjorn. She's not crazy about any if them but screams unless she's being carried so she'll tolerate them.

We have the Moby and the Baby Bjorn.  The Moby was a shower gift and I don't think she really likes it.  I think part of it is that she's really squirmy and doesn't like her arms confined.  I think she will like it better once we can put her in a different way.  She really seems to like the Bjorn, which was given to us as a hand-me-down.  Lots of things I thought would work awesome don't, and vice versa!

I tried to use the K'Tan but LO hated that. Now we use the Ergo and LO LOVES it! We use it while we are out and he sleeps the entire time!!

I have the JJ Cole one. I have only put DD in it when she already has fallen asleep in my arms. That way I still have my hands free while still giving her the comfort and closeness she wants.

We have the k'tan, got it for Christmas, and we are still trying to figure out what's comfortable. We also have the moby, but all that wrapping is hard when your in the parking lot.
