Soft carrier (like Moby)/for newborn....?

Kingston54 · August 2012

Looking to get a new soft carrier for the new baby. I had a MOby with DS and loved it and used it a lot. The problem was all the extra fabric/tying. I want something easier to get on/off - especially with a toddler in tow!

I've seen the K'Tan and like that.

Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on the K'Tan or recommendations on any other brands?

Thanks!

I have a Boba wrap and still use it for DS (6months)-- I think it's like the Moby though. When he was an infant and I used it everyday, I often would just tie it in the morning and take it off at night... (I'd wear him if we went out for a walk or errands so it was easy to slip him in and out). Plus I'd just move the fabric out of the way for feedings. It might not be the most fashionable, but it worked well for us.

I think a mei tai might be up your alley though.

The k'tan is ok - I think the biggest problem is that it's very size specific and that it's so stretchy with no real way to tighten (like you could with the moby). I did like it better than the moby (and I'm actually a big wrap fan, just not a big moby fan!). I have a run-down of newborn carrier options in my siggy link that might help you pick.

I liked my Moby for the newborn age, perhaps you could pre-tie it in the am and use as needed? I also think a mei tai may work well for you. I've never used the k'tan.

Love Bobas and Ergos! The K'tan is also a great option.

NCBelle, I'm interested in the run-down of newborn carriers you mentioned, but not sure what a 'siggy link' is. Can you help me find it? Sorry- I'm new here
