A bit tooooo warm for the summer
I really like this wrap. My son is happy in it, but in the summer it's a bitch! I don't know about other women, but having sweat streaming down my face and back and front is not my idea of fun or comfortable! Seriously, all that fabric wrapped around me and the babay...way too much bulk and body heat. My son got a heat rash from being in it.

I'd opt for either a sling for young babies, or a front pack or ergo for older babies in the summer months. It was awesome when he was a newborn in the winter months, but at 5 months in anything above 85 I'd prefer something more breathable.

~It's easy to set up. If I'm taking the car somewhere I wrap myself up at home so I can just load the boy in at the store/park, etc.

~It's comfortable for baby; mine at least. From newborn up to 5 months now (15+ lbs) he hasn't complained!

~Comfortable for me; minus the sweating. I have a front pack, but it makes my back ache. Not with the Moby. My back is pain free.

~More freedom for baby. My boy really likes using his arms and they're more restricted in front packs than with the Moby.

~Hides baby fat. I like that.

This was not for us.
A friend suggested we purchase this. She had one and loved it, but it was not for me. I spent an hour attempting to figure out how to put the stupid thing on before I just gave up. It is crazy long. I'm petite, (5'2 and 110 pounds). I could wrap the "extra" around my waist 3 times. I did eventually sort of get the wrap on only to discover my baby hated it. He kicked and wiggled the entire time. I ended up ordering a Bjorn, which I love. If you are short, I would think twice about getting this.

I felt like I was caught in a fabric store nightmare
I have read a many wonderful reviews of this products -- met many women (don't know any men who use them) who love it. But I found the whole thing horrible. I just felt lost in the endless yards of fabric...I kept wrapping and wrapping and wrapping. It was like living in a cocoon without the turning into a butterfly at the end -- hot, bulky, too time consuming to get on. I'm 5'6", but very thin by American standards, so perhaps this is my problem??? Though the models in the pictures look pretty thin and seem to be having no problem. I found the Bjorn much better, a sling even better and finally an ERGO a dream machine. Sadly I didn't find the ERGO until my daughter was 20 months, and then at 24 months I got pregnant again and was worried about strapping anything to my belly. Anyway, hope this works better for you. I'm going to try the Moby out again with this baby because I want to believe it can work for me too...that being said, wish I had never wasted money on this. Buy an ERGO. I know people who can still carry their 4 year olds around in it. You need an additional insert for newborns with the ERGO, so I'll use the Moby and Bjorn and sling until the baby can switch to the ERGO.

comfortable with minimal practice
I had a lot of trouble getting my infant son comfortably into a typical carrier. Now with my infant daughter, I decided to try the Moby. It took a few tries to learn how to manipulate the long piece of fabric, but once I became comfortable so did my daughter. My Moby allows me to get things done around the house and easily carry her around outside of the home while keeping my snugglebug happy.

Customer Reviews

Finally found the perfect newborn carrier!
I am on my third child and have finally found the perfect newborn carrier... the Sleepy Wrap! I have tried every carrier/sling out there, and was still not totally satisfied with the ones I used with my first two children. I decided to try the Sleepy Wrap for my third baby based on a lot of research and positive reviews. I was not disappointed! I absolutely love the Sleepy Wrap and so does my son. I have been using it since he was four days old and he still loves it at six weeks. I just pop him in and he can either look around or fall asleep. He is so much cozier than he would be in traditional carriers and unlike slings, I love that he can be carried upright with his face showing. He snoozes in this thing for hours at a time.

I considered getting the other popular wrap, which also gets great reviews, but decided on the Sleepy Wrap because it had a little stretch to it. I am really glad I did. It makes it so much easier to put on, as you do not have to leave room for your child. I was at a baby carrier clinic trying on various wraps and the woman trying on a wrap without stretch had a much harder time than I did. I recommend practicing tying it on a few times before giving birth and it will be a cinch. The first time I put my son in it he didn't even wake up.

With this type of wrap it is easiest to put it on before you leave the house, but fortunately with the Sleepy Wrap you can take your baby in and out without retying it. I have the gray and love it. Get the Sleepy Wrap- you can't go wrong!

great stretch to the fabric
I got both the Sleepy Wrap and Moby Wrap and have tried them both out to see which one I liked better. They both seem to be the exact same concept and you can do all the same holds with them but I will be keeping the Sleepy Wrap because the fabric has more give and stretch to it which makes it easier for me to tuck the baby inside and then adjust it to support her head. At first I wasn't sure if I would like the wrap style carrier because all the fabric seemed cumbersome but after a few tries I learned how to do it and I can get it on within a few seconds. I prefer the wrap over my traditional front carrier because it is much easier on my back and because it provides newborn head support so you really can have your hands free.

comfortable and cozy!
i love this wrap, i bought one for a friend who just adopted a baby and she wears her around the house all day to bond, it's so beautiful. my son sleeps so well in the wrap, but he does get really warm, even when i dress him down. I have to make sure he's not wearing too many layers since the fabric of the wrap has about 3 layers when it's all said & done. it takes a few tries to get it tied just right but once you've got it, you're good! Don't try it out when the baby is fussy, have it tied on to you and try them in it when they're calm, otherwise you'll get a bad impression of a great product!

love it! wish i had the budget for all the colors!

We love the Sleepy Wrap!
I ordered the Sleepy Wrap after finding out my son didn't particularly like his Snuggly. He's a long lean baby and just moved around too much in the Snuggly. He absolutley loves his Sleepy Wrap and so do I. I was a bit disappointed at first when I opened the package and found there were no instructions. Only this huge piece of fabric. I was able to look at the pictures on the box and figured out how to put the wrap on. I also looked on line and found step by step instructions. It has take a few times to get the hang of putting on the wrap but now it's pretty easy. I will say it is definatley easier to have my husband put my son in the wrap while I have it on than try to put him in the wrap myself. We live in AZ and it does get a bit warm with the wrap on but nothing that makes me and my son too uncomfortable. It is also very easy to clean. Just throw it in the wash and drier. It's also easy to adjust and he seems to like it pretty snug. The first time I put him in the Sleepy Wrap he was asleep with in about 10 minutes. I would highly recommend the sleepy wrap to any new parent.

Strange contraption... just a long piece of stretchy cloth
I placed this on my registry because of the great reviews and because I felt like I needed some type of infant carrier or sling that would hold my daughter since she is so small. The conventional slings like Baby Bjorn or similar ones are too big for her right now. While this wrap holds my 7 week old securely, it takes some real skill to get this thing on in a way that your baby will fit in it securely and not sag or slide out. Once you've got it on securely (I would try practicing several times and carry baby around the house before going outside with it) your baby should fit nicely in it. Still, I have mixed feelings about this cloth contraption. I feel like it is way overpriced for what it is (again a very long piece of stretchy nylon type cloth that wraps around you several times), it takes at least 2 people to adjust the wrap properly AND place your child in it, and it is definitely not for summer months unless you live in Alaska or Canada. I live in Virginia and even in 75 degree weather, this wrap makes my 7 week old daughter sweat a lot and that is just with a diaper and nothing else on! I don't think the fabric breathes well. Perhaps when fall comes, it will be a more comfortable (temp wise) fit for my babe, but for now I am not all that impressed with it. I've used it maybe 3 times and only 1 time outside of the house. It also looks really strange on in person (lol). Just my opinion...

A mother's must-have!
I absolutely love my Moby wrap! It's easy to learn how to tie it and for a "hold me" kinda baby like my son it's a must have. I use mine around the house, at the beach, or just to go for a walk with the dog. My son just snuggled down into it like he's home again. The way the cloth covers you entire back distributes the weight evenly so your neck and shoulders don't get sore. It's light weight cloth so it keeps the baby cooler than most baby carriers would on a hot day, but being in direct contact with you keeps your baby warm on a colder day. I also love that in just one carrier there are so many different ways to use it. It's also machine washable!
I wouldn't go anywhere with out my Moby.

a must have!
The wrap is very comfortable and I have no back pain at all when I use it and I have back problems! Once you get the hang of wrapping it, it's easy to do. I have only used it one way so far because my son is still a newborn but he loves to be in it and usually falls asleep. I use it when I go to the store or go out, it's so much better than carrying a giant car seat or stroller with the car seat on it. I was a little worried about buying it because it's basically a giant piece of stretchy cloth! But, I LOVE LOVE LOVE it and am so happy I decided to purchase it. I highly recommend it!

I love baby wearing!
I love my Moby Wrap! I bought it when my daughter was 2 months old. She was always fussy during supper time so I simply put her in the wrap and she would sleep the whole time I was making supper for my family. I also use this wrap when I'm shopping since my carseat does not fit properly in the shopping carts. This wrap keeps curious strangers from touching my baby as she is all covered up! This wrap is comfortable to wear, it does take a couple of times practicing to figure out how to use it, but distributes weight evenly! I also like all the different positions to choose from.

Thinking About a Moby Wrap? A Few Things To Consider
I bought my first Moby Wrap when my second son hit 3 weeks and I suspected he had colic. He only seemed happy when I held him, much like many other infants. I've used a Snugli, Ultimate Baby Wrap (too stretchy to feel secure), and an Infantino sling, but I had seen a baby in a Moby once before, and it had looked so comfortable for mom and baby that I knew I wanted to try it out. The bottom line is that I am a really big fan of the Moby Wrap, and I'm writing this review for parents considering purchasing one.
For those concerned about difficulty of putting the wrap on correctly, I will say that some folks, depending on their learning style, may have some trouble. Simple solution: go to youtube and check out the many demonstration videos for all the different holds.
For those concerned about the length of the wrap, you could always put the wrap on at home, then hop in the car and head to your destination. I often do this when I'm short on time or when the weather's bad. If you tie yours in the back and would prefer not to drive around with a knot of fabric poking you in the back, just leave the last knot untied until you arrive at your destination. Additionally, the only parts that MIGHT touch the ground during the tying process are the ends, which do not touch your baby, so no worries!
So what happens if you don't love your Moby? Gently used Moby Wraps sell on ebay and craigslist for $20 - $30! Resale value is pretty impressive compared to most baby gear, so don't balk at the $40 price tag. It's definitely worth every penny. I carry my son around just about everywhere (church, shopping, park, zoo, etc...) and I know you'll enjoy yours, too.

Moby wrap
I heard great things about the Moby Wrap. I love the concept of being hands free, however, the product is a bit pricey, the material feels heavy once it's on and on hot days it's too much to have on (so probably better for winter born babies), compared to the baby bejourn, I perfer the bejourn.

Love this wrap!
I adore my Moby Wrap! The color is a very pretty grey with just a hint of light blue in the edging. The wrap is light weight, cotton, slightly stretchy, and very comfy! I love that this wrap allows for many hold-styles, and adjusts so that nearly any size person can use it, and tiny newborns up through toddlers can be carried in it. It also folds up small so it is easy to store and carry, and is much easier to maneuver in tight spaces or crowded places than a stroller. Plus I feel like I get a better workout when I wear my son in this on walks. :) Not too warm in summer, because the cotton breathes. It did take me a few tries to realize that the panels which sit under the baby's legs (this is especially true for me in the front-facing carry) need to be spread really wide, or he sits lopsided; it might help to have someone help you when you first try a Moby Wrap out.

Great product
I really like this wrap, and so does my son! I just got it last week, and have used it 3 times now. My husband helped me put it on the first time, as it looks a little intimidating, but had no problems putting it on by myself the other times! I took the recommendations of other reviewers and put it on before leaving the house, for ease of use and for sanitary reasons (you dont want this dragging on the ground and then wrapping baby up in it!). So far Ive taken baby to the mall, and to the movie theaters and he loves being close and snuggly to me. This has also been great to use around the house because my son like to be held a lot, and I am able to put him in the moby and get some things done. I am glad I got this wrap- almost didnt because of the fabric length, and it seemed a little bit intimidating- but it is easy to get the hang of, and there are online videos that can help and it comes with a booklet also. GREAT WRAP!!!

Its soft and comfortable to wear.
I bought this baby carrier when my daughter was 3 1/2 months. I had recently tried the Baby Bjorn breathable baby carrier but my daughter never liked it too tight. I decided to try a wrap instead, it was also cheaper. When I first tried it i notice it was pretty long and found out later that there is smaller ones for this brand. It took my daughter a few times to get used to it. I guess because she is not used to being confined in one place. I would recommend to used this wrap for newborns... I also notice that it wasn't complicated to wrap it. However, my baby gets really hot in this, so i must keep her in very little clothing. Overall, This product is good for newborns.

Lifesaver
I love this wrap and so does my baby. I have a very fussy baby who needs to be held all the time. With this wrap I can wear my baby and have both arms free. Unlike slings and other baby carriers I've tried this wrap keeps my baby close to my body. It is also very comfortable to wear and doesn't hurt my back. It is a little difficult to get on in the beginning until you get used to it. There is a lot of material to work with but once you get the hang of it it's wonderful. This is a real life saver for parents of fussy high-needs babies.

Not worth $44
I bought this because a friend raved about & said how badly she would love to have it so I decided to give this a try! I bought this one because it was uv protected & the tan color wouldn't get too hot!! I tried several times to wrap it & get it like they had on the video & the instruction booklet but I just couldn't get it! I couldn't tie it in the front due to my larger size after birth & tying it in the back left too much hanging! Not to mention how HOT we both were in this thing in February!! I'd hate to use this in the spring or summer months!! I haven't tried using it for my son now that he's 5 months! I gave up on this & I'm out $44!! I just use a baby carrier (not a wrap or sling) instead!

Great Stretchy Wrap!
The Moby is a great stretchy wrap. It's no longer recommended for the back carry, but all other carries work great! I've done the hip carry with my almost 3 year old, and the others with my 3 month old. I wish it was a little bit lighter-weight, as it's getting pretty warm in FL already, but my daughter loves being close, and this allows hands free snuggling. Don't forget to check on your baby often, and follow the booklet instructions on baby placement for optimal protection from suffication! When worn properly, this is one of the safest tools to use to wear your baby!

Amazing wrap!
Once you read through the instruction booklet, tying the wrap was really easy to do. And after a couple of practice runs getting my little one in there, it turned out to be really easy to use. My girl was able to fall asleep while I held her in there which was nice for when we were out and about and even just doing things around the house. The wide straps allow for maximum comfort and because the fabric stretches out across the shoulders, it helps relieve some of the strain on the back.

Wish i had gotten this with my first son. It looks difficult at first but i quickly got the hang of it. My baby loved being snuggled so close and i felt safe there was no way he could fall out. This is great for people with newborns and babies that want to be held all the time. Its much easier on your back than the other carriers i've tried, and there aren't any buckels that can dig into you.

BEST Baby Carrier
We had a trip to England with our 2 youngs children (5-months and 20-months). We took a McLaren stroller for the older child and this for the youngest. My wife loved this - it supported her back well, felt comfortable, and allowed her a full range of motion (climbed the 100 steps in Whitby with no problems). It was cold when we were there, and the extra body heat from mom-to-baby was great. There are NO metal clasps on this, so she could "wear" the baby straight through the metal detectors at the airports and security checkpoints at the palace, etc.

I won't lie - men shouldn't wear this. Men look dumb wearing any baby carrier, and this is no exception. Please, please, please - wives of the world, just let your husband carry the baby. It might be easier to wear this, but it is not worth the embarasment!

Regardless, this is the BEST carrier/sling/etc available. We've bought just about every one of them out there - front loaders, back packs, slings. None are even comparable.
