Baby Wrap Carrier - Stretch Cotton Newborn Sling, Grey

As mummies go I'm a bit of a sling addict and have a fair few in my cupboard. I have two children, the first is now five. When he was younger I opted for a moby wrap and later a mama sling and a baba sling. Both are ok, the sling is great for extra support when carrying an older baby in the hip carry but can become uncomfortable after a while due to all the weight being on one shoulder and the moby takes a while to get the tie right plus because there is no stretch in the fabric you have to get the fit just right before you put baby in. I found the colour on the fabric came off on my clothes too. I didn't get on with the baba sling at all. With baby number two (now five months) I have bought both the boba wrap and carrier 4G. Both are AMAZING. The boba wrap is my favourite wrap by far, its super comfortable for mummy and baby because of the super stretchy soft fabric and its the most comfortable sling I have ever worn. Its so comfy and light weight my baby takes her morning nap in it while I get on with jobs around the house. You can just bring the fabric behind baby's head to support it softly while they sleep and you can get on with life. I love the colour, it goes with everything and I've had so many compliments on the wrap. I really can't say enough good things about it. The carrier is just as brilliant and I use it when I'm out and about and I know I need to get baby in and out of the carrier quickly with no fussing, for example when I'm shopping and jumping in and out of the car (the carrier takes seconds to fit and put baby in while the wrap take a couple of minutes to tie). The combination of wrap and carrier is so good I rarely use the buggy.

Actually really like this and so does my baby. She is 2 months old and still loves contact napping on me - this has been great in freeing up my hands. We have a separate carrier that we use for outdoor walks but I wanted something soft so that she can still feel snuggled in without me having to use my arms. This is nice and stretchy so it’s really easy to put on and get baby in. I tried another one but it was too short and too tight for my baby.

Having tried this sling out via my local sling library I was keen to buy this for me and my baby. Being a preemie baby, this sling was perfect. It takes a bit of practice to put on but when you've got it on you can put your baby against your body for a lovely cuddle while you get on with doing things. My LO falls asleep when I put him in this and it's been great when he's been a bit windy or unsettled. I would recommend buying this if you've tried it first at a local sling library, and getting some advice about it first. It will fit anyone - both me or my husband can wear this comfortably. I opted for black because it was cheaper than the other colours at the time although admittedly I wish I had chosen a brighter or lighter colour for the summer. It's comfortable enough to wear around the house, although I have to wriggle a bit to breastfeed my LO if I am wearing it. The fabric stays stretchy after several wears - something that I thought would be an issue if I bought a cheaper one. It also helps support your baby with their hips - this is apparently important with carriers and slings! The only downside is that it's very very long, and doesn't come with a pouch or similar to keep it in.

This wrap is very comfortable to wear in terms of holding your baby securely and distributing the weight well, as long as it is tied tightly enough. The first time, my newborn drooped a bit low, but we sorted it out with a bit of adjustment. I am hoping to get more wear out of the wrap later on, but two factors have limited how useful it has been to me so far. Firstly, this wrap is very warm, which would be great in winter, but I have felt it was far too hot in the recent hot summer weather. When my baby has been happy in just a vest, or vest and sleep suit, during the day, the idea of wrapping him in 3 layers of thick warm material which hold him next to an adult's body heat is not such a winner, especially if we were going out in the sun or walking some distance so that we would work up extra heat. The other factor has been that this wrap is still not comfortable with my caesarean scar after 8 weeks - whereas I have subsequently forked out the extra for a boba 3g which I have already been wearing comfortably for a couple of weeks, and which is cooler for my little one. Having said that, I am looking forward to this being a great soft, snuggly option in the autumn and winter, as long as my baby doesn't grow out of it too fast.

This was my first wrap I bought and used with my baby. You can use it from newborn up. My baby is 10 weeks and she loves being in it. The material length is good so you can achieve different carries and it is soft and of a decent weight. I haven't worn it in warmer weather yet as my baby was born in Feb but I have a suspicion it may make the wearer rather sticky. Ideal for babies who like being held so you can get on with things and a good way to get some extra skin on skin if you like. It is also great when shopping as you can have your hands free. It comes with a bag and compacts to the size of a melon (but squishy) and so when I take my pram out, I always take my sling so I have the option to carry my baby. Can be used for breastfeeding but I haven't mastered the art yet. Dads and mums can wear this wrap without having to worry about adjusting straps etc. I like these so much that I have two in different colours. Highly recommend. Boba also have helpful tutorial videos on YouTube to help you out with wrapping.

This wrap is literally the best £38 I've ever spent. It's very easy to get to grips with, you just need to spend a bit of time getting the 'fit' right (i.e. not too loose or tight). It's extremely comfortable and can be worn all day, you just pop baby in and out as needed. My baby loves the wrap and it's the only place he'll sleep in the day. I love it because I can carry him comfortably and still have my hands free to get on with stuff. It's brilliant for attachment and bonding and helps you to get to know your baby really well as he's so close. It can be easily put in the washing machine as needed and this hasn't had a detrimental impact on the elasticity. I was a bit worried that I would struggle to carry baby for long periods (he's a big baby) but so far no problems at all, it's really very comfortable. I literally don't have anything bad to say about the Boba Wrap and I definitely wouldn't be without it.

The fabric on this wrap is lovely.,it is soft, thick, and has just the right amount of stretch. When I managed to get it on right, my baby nestled in and fell asleep almost instantly. It genuinely feels secure and distributes weight really well across your back. However, I am returning it because it just doesn't suit my lifestyle. At over 5 metres long, there is just too much fabric to deal with. Every time I tried to tie it while out and about, the ends dragged all over the dirty ground. The learning curve is also quite steep, trying to wrap it correctly while juggling a crying baby just got too stressful for me. Lastly, because the material is so thick and wraps around you multiple times, both me and my baby got overheated very quickly.If you want something cosy for strictly around the house, you will love it. But if you want a quick, hassle-free option for running errands, I’d suggest looking at a structured carrier with buckles instead.

I was sceptical about this wrap being any better than another one I bought. When I opened the box and felt the material I was impressed at the density but didn't think it was all that stretchy. However, my mind was changed out of necessity. My little one spitup all over the first one I'd bought and so I had to use this one; it's absolutely brilliant. My previous one was not stretchy at all and it was very hard to get tight, there was always loose bits and I felt the baby was slipping more. With this she feels snug and firmly wrapped. The material is dense and soft and I love the colour (sangria). All in all, _very_ pleasantly surprised

Fin och följsam dock ej slät på insidan.

Delivery of the product was on time.. love the fabric and the snug fit of the wrap... Baby loved the hold and that left me hands free to do all my work

SNSで見て、二つ目の抱っこ紐として購入。最初は付けるのに少し練習が必要ですが、慣れると簡単。どんな体型の人にも使えるのが良い。新生児の頃から使えるし、赤ちゃんも中でスヤスヤ眠ってくれました。泣き止まないとかはこれで抱っこしながら家事もできます。 デメリットは布が長いので外出先では巻き直しが困難なこと。巻き直ししないような近所への散歩や買い物、家の中の使用には最高です！

Ottima fascia di qualità. Il mio bebè si è fatto le migliori dormite all'interno. Soldi ben spesi soprattutto nei primi mesi, quando il bimbo non pesa troppo. Ora a 5,5 kg la uso ancora senza problemi

The material of this sling is soft and my newborn feels well supported. It's also very comfortable to wear. However- I'm 5 foot 4 and feel like the length of material is excessive. It makes it very difficult to put it on outdoors (if trying to keep the sling clean) as there is so much material. I didn't have this issue with a previous fabric sling I've owned - my old one was roughly half the length. Apart from the excessive length it's a great sling.
