Product Information

Moby feel slightly sturdier, especially the classic version. The Evolution is easier to adjust and “mold” around your chest and baby’s body. Moby vs. Boba – Carrying Positions We spoke to three What to Expect staff members who have five children between them and have tested some of the baby wraps on this list, in addition to my own experience using a baby wrap with my two children. The Boba wrap, on the other hand, is more stretchable and can wrap and contour better for a snug fit.

When choosing a baby carrier, make sure to always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines, as well as your own common sense. In any babywearing wrap or carrier, always make sure your baby is properly supported from knee to knee, that their face is always visible and off their chest and that they have plenty of air flow. One of the more affordable baby wraps, the CuddleBug model is also super soft. It’s extremely versatile and can be used as a breastfeeding cover, tied as sling, or even wound to provide postpartum support to your torso!Shared use: If you’re likely to be sharing babywearing responsibilities with a partner or family member, consider how easily they can be adjusted to the wearer. Wraps and slings are often one-size-fits-all, whereas the soft-structured carriers usually are adjustable at the waist and shoulders to fit petite and plus-sized parents. If you’re particularly tall or small framed, consider the overall bulk and weight of the carrier itself, as some bulky designs can feel overbearing. Still feeling iffy? Feel free to send a photo of yourself wearing the carrier or wrap to [email protected], and we’d be happy to take a look and give you some pointers! In addition to a ring sling and wrap carrier, it can be used as a breastfeeding cover and postpartum belly band.

Elasticity makes the fabric easy to adjust. It clings to wearer’s body and keeps the baby snuggled and contained.

It’s comfortable for both baby and wearer, suitable for all shapes and sizes and brilliantly cosy for keeping the tiniest of babies close to you. We love the inclusion of a detachable storage pouch, which ensures you always have easy access to your keys or phone without needing a separate bag.

If you want to use the wrap longer, with heavier baby, less stretchy fabric will be a better choice, because sagging won’t be an issue. We used an Izmi carrier, which was great. We travelled quite a lot when the baby was little and it was nice to have something not too bulky. It was also easy to adjust to fit my husband or I when we swapped around” - rated by Mumsnet user SamMil Our verdictThe Boba is the ultimate in adjustability. Its four-way stretch allows you to pull the wrap snugly around your body to create a truly custom fit, making it one size fits all.

Also consider what size child you feel comfortable carrying in a wrap. How do you put a baby wrap on? This wrap has more give in it which makes it easier to lower the baby to the breast and re-position your little one once they’re done nursing. And you can do all of that without untying the whole wrap. Certified ‘hip healthy’ by The International Hip Dysplasia Institute, the wide and supportive ergonomic seating position can be lowered as your baby grows, ensuring your baby’s spine maintains a natural curve and good hip alignment, with your baby’s legs in a healthy ‘M’ position. Boba Wrap is a long piece of fabric (exactly 5.5 yards long) which you need to tie around your body. It’s a one-size-fits-all, it fits petite moms as well as plus-size moms. Scoring highly in all categories for our tester with a younger baby, the Boba Wrap is a best buy for the earliest months.I have the Ergobaby. It’s comfortable and supportive and my baby sleeps well in it whilst I go about my day" - recommended by Mumsnet user, AuntLucy Some caregivers stop using a baby wrap after the first few months, others around 18 months, and some use one even with their older toddlers. Boba Wrap saved my life in the early days! I found the proper carriers like Ergobaby not supportive enough for a teeny tiny newborn. I managed the Boba Wrap fine on my own, whereas I always needed some help with the carrier” - tried and tested by Mumsnet user Gabbbbbbby Our verdict
