I really suck!

I can't get my "moby" to work right. It gets almost right but I don't trust it. It just doesn't feel secure enough for me to just go about my business and I can't figure out where it is supposed to be near her head/neck! EEEK!

    Did you watch any of the videos on Youtube?  I found them to be extremely helpful.  Do a search for moby wrap and you'll find several instructional videos.  I think the other key thing is to wrap it really tight before you put your LO in.  It's going to stretch out enough to accommodate him/her.  I think a lot of people assume they need to leave enough room for their LOs when they tie it and then once they put their LO in the wrap it's too loose.

    Wrap it really tight, then bounce her in while supporting her head, maybe do a little shoulder wiggle, then turn her head sideways and tuck in into the shoulder "strap", then bounce again. And practice makes perfect.

    Agreed with the other ladies- tie it tighter than you think you should, then pop her in. And this is one of the better You Tube vidoes that shows how to use it, IMO. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CamfWi0cEU8
