Please tell me I had trouble wrapping b/c of the belly :(

I ordered a custom "Moby" (https://www.beebymecouture.com/) and got it today, so I tried it out. I cannot get it to wrap right. No matter how tight I get it, the panel always ends up really loose, one time it was even so tight, it wouldn't have fit a child in it, but the panel had loosened by the time I got it tied. Is it b/c I'm still pregnant & have the belly? I got so frustrated.

    no, you're fine!  have you worn the moby before?  It take a LOT of practice and i'm just now finally starting to get it.  I thought I was doomed as well because of my belly (fat not baby lol) but it's ok to tie it in the back and i'm sure you will get the hang of it!

  • I couldn't get it to work before I lost the pregnant belly either. Just watch the video a few times before your LO comes to get familiar with the process, but know that the huge basketball you have under your shirt changes the way the fabric drapes. Once LO is out and you try it again, it will be much easier.
  • i think everyone I have seen talk about trying it out while still pregnant has had trouble with it. With some practice and the baby on the outside instead of the inside Im sure you will be fine! ohh and check out all the youtube videos, they really helped me when I was trying to use it the first few times
