Thank you for your help as a stay at home dad this wrap was a huge time and sanity saver! I appreciate you showing me how to use it correctly! And so does my son! ;)
People that have never used the full length fabric wraps should NOT comment negatively on this. My close friend had a full length wrap and i carried toddler twin girls on each side for over an hour with no weight or distribution problems at all. we were all three comfortable the whole time! and when i say toddler, they were two months away from turning three. these wraps are so comfortable and convenient and when they get to a certain age you can wrap them while they're on you for a more secure feel. comments like "OMG this looks so annoying" isn't helpful to anyone and just makes you look bad
Back for a refresher! I love this sling now that babe is a little bigger and heavier. I use my ring sling more during the newborn stage though. Thank you for sharing these wonderful tips.
Thank you for making this video. I'm a daddy bear, I have two boys. I had a harness for my first boy and he hated it and it hurt my back. My youngest boy, my wife got a moby and she knows how to use it with out a problem. I never remember how to do this. So thank you vary much for making a easy guide.
I like that you can wear the moby as part of your outfit. Get the wrap on and situated, travel to any destination, put baby in upon arrival and go! Easy, versatile and comfortable.
Try putting it on, BEFORE you leave the house... You can drive with it on and then put the baby in at your destination. Highly recommended, even if you make your own.
just be careful while taking them out if youre not familiar with this thing 100%. i was trying to take my daughter out of the wrap, and she used her newfound leg strength and launched herself out on her own, luckily i was right by a V shaped desk and she landed in the V only hit her back and shoulders or it could have been a lot worse. it scared the hell out of me. not the products fault but if youre not very familiar with how to put them in and get them out, just keep a firm grip on a limb until you learn. if this desk had not been here it would have been a 2ft fall to a hard hard floor, i dont even like to think about it. God taught me a lesson on this one, always use a firm grip and control the baby or this thing can be dangerous.
I love this wrap. What is not encouraged is skin to skin caring. Skin to skin offers so many incredible advantages both to baby and mother. If we are carrying the baby already why not go the next step and skin to skin. I am also wondering if there could not be a problem with breathing for the newborn in a hammock position. Newborns need to have their sternum against mothers sternum.
I have this product, I agree its REALLY over priced for a piece of jersey but the wrap works great if you use it properly. There are many more holds than just these ones. Id suggest it to anyone.
that amount of organic jersey with the same high quality would cost even more where i live and you would also still have to sew around the whole thing. It is about 60 € here, 15-30 available as used on the market like ebay Kleinanzeigen in germany. I sew and good Jersey is not cheap. High quality wraps meitai and slings start at 120 €. Got mine preused as a present. Would recommend to buy a used one.
i loooove this wrap and practically lived in it during the first 8 mo of my daughter's life . why would it not be practical outside of the house? it made my life so much easier (and continues to do so, with my baby now at 16mo and as grabby as can be... well, unless she's wrapped up! haha)
My mobs wrap has a panel on the end specifically stating not to have baby lying and hunched or in a “C” shape because they can suffocate even though they’re face isn’t covered...
What is the difference between the first two basic wraps? It looks like one is unfolded and the other is folded, what are the pros and cons of each wrap style?
Dont fold it. Make sure each fabric rail isnt twisted, lay the crosses flat on you. When positionning your child, feed your baby's feet trough each rail, cover their body from knee to ear with each rail, put the 3rd layer and leave the feet OUTSIDE the wrap !!! Otherwise thé baby could kick themselves out of the carrier.
You dont have to put it on without the baby. I put it on like she does in the video and it works just fine for me, but my wife uses a different method where she puts it around the baby first and then around herself.
Helpful video...however the video fades out each time the baby finally gets positioned in each of the holds. I would have like to have seen the camera linger for 10 seconds (at least) so one could see how the baby looks actually in the wrap.
The problem with this kind of wrapping is, that you put it on without the baby. You have to guess, how tight it has to be. The baby changes every day and it happened often to me, that it was too tight or too loose. Even the woman in the video seems not to trust it, because she holds the baby even after wrapping. And because it is an elastic fabric, there are no other wrapping options. I really tried it but I eventually gave up and bought a non elastic wrap, with which I am absolutely happy.
Wish I could make it work. My daughter hates it. I spend 10 minutes trying to get it on and her in it (all while she's screaming at me) all for her to just scream louder and wiggle it loose and both of us more frustrated. My mother in law will ask me - why don't you get out your wrap- and I'll just give her a look. Glad I got mine as a hand me down and did not spend money. Up in the attic it goes. Maybe if I have another child, it will be better.
A amarração pré amarrada não traz um bom ajuste ao bebê, o ideal para recém nascido é a amarração cruz envolvente com as alças para fora. Respeita a ergonomia da coluna e vc consegue ajusta passo a passo conforme o desenvolvimento da criança, como ajustar corretamente na cervical e os pezinhos sempre devem ficar para fora, só assim os joelhinhos ficaram mais altos em possição de sapinho e respeitará a coluna no RN em C.
Dude. This is 10 times more complicated than the scarf my aunt used. She put a knot in it and wore it across her body and just plopped the baby in. This thing has a zillion yards of fabric and adds bulk to a new moms midsection. Talk about damaging to an ego when you want to look cute.
It was just a basic woven scarf. She's a practical German woman like that. I will concede that the knot digs into your shoulder with a normal scarf though.
She made a sling. Now, this is okay for a lot of people but many babies are placed in slings wrong and end up suffocating. I used a sling with my first and was constantly worried he would smother.
Meet a babywearing consultant, the techniques are explained way better in person. There are many mistakes in this video that make following the tutorial very complicated.
As a Dad who is officially outnumbered for the first time today, I thank you for this video. Life saver!
Thank you for your help as a stay at home dad this wrap was a huge time and sanity saver! I appreciate you showing me how to use it correctly! And so does my son! ;)
Awh bless that tiny little baby. I wish I'd done this when mine was so small. I miss those cuddles

Can you please explain to me why my wrap is short? I can’t tie the knot on the front

thank you for providing such a clear tutorial! even with our squirmy newborn and our lack of sleep this is easy to do and our son just loves it!
I looked this up to learn how to use my rebozo. Great directions!
simply fantastic!! Soft..... warm...secure.... very full of love and care
Try putting it on, BEFORE you leave the house... You can drive with it on and then put the baby in at your destination. Highly recommended, even if you make your own.
I love it I use it with both of my kids and will continue to use it on baby number 3 !
This is the most awesome product for baby carrying! Great video.
Thank you so much for this helpful video
Much better than the instruction in the Moby Wrap itself. Thanks.
I love this I will be getting this product when my baby is born.
i love this video. thank you so much
I wish I knew abt this when I had my kids. It wud have made my life so much easier than the traditional baby carriers or my own version of these wraps

Thanks for sharing it
Will defenatly take your story and learn from it. I just bought one for my baby. Il be extra careful when his here
Thanks for sharing.
Thats why baby's legs should come OUT of the wrap. Even newborns are able to push on their little feet, dont put them in thé wrap !
I have it and I love it as it holds babys head.
My left ear likes this video.
We love our Moby Wrap, Mia is so much more settled in the wrap than she is in her pram. It is very safe and secure if put on correctly.
Love the moby wrap, I might need it in the future.
I love this wrap. What is not encouraged is skin to skin caring. Skin to skin offers so many incredible advantages both to baby and mother.

Not true. You can do skin to skin with this (with the position as shown in the video).

If there isn't enough fabric for that last turn in the waist what do I do?
i loooove this wrap and practically lived in it during the first 8 mo of my daughter's life

Love this..
Is breastfeeding possible in the wrap?
I don't know it it's recommended by the makers or not, but I was able to with close monitoring of breathing.
hello wich kind of fabric is that? it is cotton or lycra? so i can look for here in my coutry
thank u
greetings from argentina
analia q jersey knit fabric I think. Very lightweight
Great video and she has a hot body! I'm motivated to get back in shape!
I love this video and my mobic wrap
You dont have to put it on without the baby. I put it on like she does in the video and it works just fine for me, but my wife uses a different method where she puts it around the baby first and then around herself.
Which one did you buy then?
@dkonkel You tie it up so it doesn't drag...
what are the measures of the fabric please?
What type of fabric are you using
Helpful video...however the video fades out each time the baby finally gets positioned in each of the holds. I would have like to have seen the camera linger for 10 seconds (at least) so one could see how the baby looks actually in the wrap.
good job
We made ours with 6 yards of fabric.
The model should have been African female this is where it originated from!!
Delois Allen EXACTLY!!!
True
nice!! like morrocco
Excellent

Elastic wraps are actually trickier to wrap correctely than woven wraps.

also, forget using this in a public area without having it dragging all over the floor. Not a convenient sling for being outside the house.
My wife brought this for our 6 month old son yesterday but I'm too scared to use it with him
Its a great wrap, i would just tie in a other way. Try a front wrap cross carry strechy wrap.
But but but... My belly is still in the way.. I can imagine it being easier without it..
Good

It's a lot safer and provides more stable support for the baby and your back.
ItsSimplyJess plus keeps baby nice and warm
What was the scarf your aunt used then?

Too much work. I need something more simple as a father
Takes practice. Soon you'll get it down.
Or get a carrier. Basically a baby backpack on your chest. Super quick and easy.
