Thanks for this video. I am still doubting between size 5 and 6. I just don't want too much fabric sticking out at the back under a coat. I am a size 12 (EU between 38 and 40) and 163 cm tall.
I can't guarantee it, but chances are that you could get away with a size 5 for a front wrap cross carry if you want very short tails. Another option is to go for a longer size so that you can tie the knot at your front (crossing over the tails at your back and bringing them round again).
Its a little easier to tie at your back as you're not having to hold the tension so much since the fabric has been crossed and goes under baby's legs so is somewhat secured. It might feel a little more secure for this reason as well, especially if you're newer to wrapping.
This has been very helpful, thank you. The only thing I would change is the music - it was too loud compared to the spoken word.
Thanks so much for the feedback x
Agreed, I felt the same way for all these informational videos.

Why go for a FWCC tied at the back vs shoulder or under bum? Is the back tie/base size more supportive?
