In the past i had used other big name baby carriers like the Snugli and a Jolly Jumper one, but I was on the search for the perfect one.
Well, I found the perfect baby carrier for everything I needed it for! The magnificent Moby Wrap. I am not sure I can say enough about how much I LOVE this product.
Product Details:
* 100% cotton
* supports a baby from Preemie to 35lbs (fabric can hold up to 45lbs)
* comes in a variety of designs/colors
* comes with a handy instruction manual to demonstrate the variety of holds the instructions are also available online
Why I Love The Moby:
- easy fit
- design allows the weight to bear across shoulders and back making it very comfortable to wear and carry baby for long periods of time
- many ways to hold the baby in 1 carrier (ie, kangaroo hold, front, back, etc)
- keeps baby warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather
- ability to breastfeed discretely while baby is still in carrier
- very reasonable price (39.35-49.95)
- no bulky clips, buckles or straps
- used it for both my newborn (8lbs) and my 2 yr old (27lbs) interchangeably
- grows with baby – have been using it since my youngest was born – she’s now 11 months old
- Soothes even the FUSSIEST baby – while leaving my hands completely free to care for my other 2 children.
Possible Cons:
- has a bit of a learning curve to get the Moby wrapped (but by the 3rd time I was a pro at it)
- not easy to quickly pack away – because it is so long i have to take the time to fold and roll and put away into it’s case
Long story short – I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Moby Wrap. I am not sure what I did before I had this product. I have since been recommending this product for anyone looking for a baby carrier for themselves or as a gift to another mother. They also have a lot of other products available including a super cute MiniMoby so your child can have one for their dolls!

Thanks for the tip! I've been looking for a sling/wrap but couldn't make up my mind.
I have the Snuggli and I hate it. Demi hates it too. I'm looking into getting the Moby. I just need to have my hubs around to help me wrap myself!
Couldn't agree more! Don't know how I lived without it with #1.
