Clicky Poll: Moby or Baby K'tan carrier?

ChristyML · May 2012

For those of you who have tried both, which of the two did/do you like more? I don't want any other wrap recommendations, just which of the two did you like better?[Poll]

I thought I would love the K'tan...turns out I hardly ever used it. Once I got the hang of the moby (like after a few times using it), I would much rather wrap LO in that and get a snug fit than use the K'tan. I felt like the K'tan would stretch out a lot, and then I would wash it and it would feel too tight at first and within an hour feel too loose and stretched out. However, I will say I was able to BF in the K'tan very easily during the newborn stage and would use it very frequently while out to eat, etc. So I guess it all depends on what you need it for. If comfort is most important to you, I say Moby. If BF in public easily is most important, I say K'tan.

Interesting that they're 50/50 right now..I really thought I'd love the Moby more and maybe I will as she grows, but right now, the K'tan is my new best friend. I used the Moby when she was like, a week old and she seemed to really like it. Unfortunately, that was about the only time she liked it. I've tried to use several times since then and she just won't tolerate it for very long. The K'tan on the other hand is a miracle worker. Literally. If she's screaming, all I have to do is put her in it, bounce a few times and she's either completely still or passed out. Amazing. Plus, the K'tan is way easier to put on. The wrapping isn't too bad on the Moby after you do it once or twice, but you can't put it on as quickly, which is kind of a pain when you need/want it right away. I'm thinking she might like it better once she's in a kangaroo hold (when she can hold her head up consistently), but for now, we're totally K'tan gals.

I do not have experience with both yet. I have a moby from DS and I was not a big fan. There was too much fabric for me (petite). I will be getting a K'tan for LO2. I did use the moby often when DS was newborn-3 months after that I used an Ergo with him.

LOVE our k'tan. it's so much easier to use than the moby and you can wear it in all the same ways. we never had an issue with the fit (i was between sizes, so i followed their tips and got the smaller one) and it fits great. the moby was just a hassle with all the fabric.
