To myself. I'd purchased a new Didy Moss linen the other day, and lo and behold, what came in the mail yesterday but my new wrap! DH and I decided not to exhange gifts this year, so it really did feel like Christmas when I got to unwrap my package!
And, BTW, this wrap rocks my world. SOOOO supportive. But not for a new wrapper- I'd have been supremely annoyed with it a year ago!
Re: Unexpected Christmas gift....
Yeah Merry Christmas! My Moss is my all time favorite wrap. I got ours bnib from a mama on TBW who dyed it for me as well, so it was a beast but I had fun breaking it in. We love it so much, we sleep with it everynight. It actually becomes really soft and floppy. I'm hoping after the new year to be able to buy another Moss or Sunset.
Some Didy's are easier to use than others. This particular wrap I'm talking about is nicknamed "the beast", if that gives you any idea! Do you have someone nearby who could help you with learning to wrap? There is a bit of a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it's really nice!
Which wrap do you have? (your blue box should have a name on the end of it.
) Most wraps are longer than you are, unless you have a shorty, which are a more advanced wrap to use. Do you happen to know the length? That should be on the box as well. The different carries you can do depend upon the length. I didn't any anyone nearby to help me either- I learned everything I know off of You Tube, www.thebabywearer.com and this board.
