Moby Question

gina emlee

I got a moby over the weekend but every time I put Kalie in it she screams.  How long did it take for your lo to get used to being in the moby?  Do you have any suggestions for getting her adjusted to it?

What hold are you using?

I've tried the cradle and the newborn hug holds.

I'm no help, Gavin always fell asleep in the moby.

Ok, cradle never worked for us. Try putting LO in the hug hold after she's fed and changed and immediately start moving. Walk aroud the house if you have to; the rhythm often calms them and makes them fall asleep. Also, I think Quinn was happier even in ye beginning with her legs out, so try that! GL!

Thanks!  I'll give that a try.

nia's in hers right now! we do the cradle hold and sometimes have to supplement with white noise on my blackberry or dh's iphone. we also have to make sure she's fed and dry before she goes in it. once we walk around she falls asleep. (btw, she hates swaddling, the bouncy and the swing and this is the one "contraption" that works for us).

I had success today!  Yay!  I did the hug hold with her legs hanging out and it worked.  I'm so happy.

Yay! I'm glad that legs out worked for you too! Quinn is a trend setter

Caroline never went for the legs in either, but loved legs out.  I guess she's cutting edge.
