Moby Wrap Baby Carrier Reviews

The Moby is great, and was a lifesaver in the early weeks when our baby constantly wanted to be held. Everyone thought it was unbelievable that I was able to get anything done, and it was because of the Moby. A word of advice, however... If your baby spits up, avoid the dark colored ones! Our baby didn't spit up, but we had friends who regretted not getting a lighter colored wrap. We have the cream colored one and it really does not show dirt.

This is a wonderful gift to give to new mommies and daddies. The item is something that will best benefit both the baby and the parent when going out to festival, parks and etc. Don't hesitate and you won't be sorry :)

This Wrap not only comes in a piece long enough to wear it numerous ways, but it has a wonderful book with it to show you how to use it. The instructions are simple and includes very clear pictures. It's comfortable without pulling on your back and allows you full control of your baby. Plus, it's comfortable for the baby.
