To get a new wrap or make do.

sometimesalwayschaotic · March 2012

I have a Moby wrap and a stork Ulli. I prefer to wrap a newborn but also have a Becco Butterfly. I am very tempted to sell my Moby and buy a Wrapsody Bali Breeze stretch. I found the Moby to be quite warm with DD and she was born in Jan. Would you buy the balibreeze or just make due with the Stork and Moby?

I had to look up the Ulli. You mean a Storch, right? I think you'll be fine with a woven wrap. We got rid of our Moby. Wovens are just so much more comfortable that stretchy wraps. And wovens are so much more breathable than jersey knit. I find a 100% cotton wrap cool enough even for the summer, but you could also look into getting a linen/cotton wrap or go with the Bali Breeze.

I actually bought some jersey knit to make a stretchy wrap for a friend and to replace the Moby I had with DS1 and sold (thinking I would use it for DS2's newborn phase). I like the wovens I have (Storch Leo and Zara) so much that I haven't used it at all. If anything I would sell the Moby to use the money for another woven in a different size. I think you would get more use out of it long term than another stretchy wrap. I would own a woven in every size if I could afford it.

Yup I meant a Storch. Sorry for the confusion! Maybe it's because my wrap isn't broken in fully but DD hated the FWCC. She may have also hated it because she was a bit older when I got that wrap and tried to wrap her like that. I'll have to give it a try with the new squish. I really want an excuse to get a new wrap but I should probably wait.

I like the way you think! I have been wanting a shorter woven because mine is very long. I would love to give a vat a try.
