I showed my husband this video because he will be home with our newborn a lot and he is so excited to try baby wearing. He says you look like a Jedi as you tie the wrap!
That’s awesome! 😂
@@yeahyeahyeah2935 ace ever io
LOL! I always thought the same when I use the Moby. 😂
That's what my husband said too.
Thank you for such a well-organized, edited, and comprehensive video! These 20 minutes saved me hours of reading/research/browsing other videos on all of the options out there. Thanks to you, I now know where to begin!
Hi Alyssa,
Thank you so much! I am so glad I was able to help :)
U
Uuiui
Iuiu I’m uiuiuiu
Uiuiuuiu
I was a nanny for two years and could NEVER figure out a baby wrap and your videos literally made all the wrapping make sense and right when my daughter is too big for them now 🤣🤣
My one month old don’t want me to put him down at all,that’s what brought me here so I can able to do other household chores , I’m so glad you make this video for other who doesn’t know about it thanks so much ❣️
She’s an expert. Notice how she glides each fabric with ease ❤️
I’m 19 weeks pregnant with my first baby and this is what I needed to see. Very helpful information. Thank you!!!!
yay! I'm so glad to hear that. congrats on your baby!
Brittany Phillips I agree, I’m 34 weeks with my first. Praise the lord for a miracle baby.
Me too that’s why I’m here lol at almost 2am lol
Same! Due in early October!
Thank you for sharing the pros and cons of the different wraps!💛 I used the Solly wrap with my second baby and loved it. The lightweight fabric is perfect since I tend to overheat really easily. Once baby is too heavy for the wrap, I switch to my structured Ergo carrier.
One of the cons for the mai tai could also be a pro in some instances - you said you can't take the baby out without taking the wrap off, but you could use that to your advantage in social situations where you don't want people passing your baby around or being held by too many different people
With my second kiddo I watched your 3 year old thing a baby wrap video. And it made things so much easier. Thanks for all your great mama content. 💛
...and baby says: "MOM, enough already!!" 😂 😉
Poor little guy!! Hearing him whimper was so cute but sad
Very helpful! With my first baby I used a Baby K'tan when he was a newborn. With my second baby I tried to skip a stretchy wrap and go straight for a soft structured carrier. But I realized that a wrap really is a newborn essential! 💜 Heidi
Yes I used the baby k’tan for my first two kids as well as moby. The moby was great once I got the hang of it but it wasn’t good for out and about because the fabric was so long it was hard to do without it touching the ground and possibly getting dirty when in public. I am pregnant with my 3rd and it’s been a few years so I’m hoping to try a ring sling but have the trusty k’tans on hand if I decide that works better.
Super helpful! I thought I had a wrapped selected, but now feel much better informed. Thank you so much!
Loving everything about this video, instant subscribe. Thank you for being so straight to the point and patient explaining the many options for this new mom!
Thank you for addressing the safety concerns right in the beginning of the video. I've watched dozens of videos about various baby carriers and you are the first person to have specifically to offer a warning a couple of best practices when carrying a baby. I didn't realize the rule about being able to kiss their head, but I'm really glad you mentioned that.
Are these safe after a certain point? Is it safe for newborns?
Thank you so much!! This video was so soo helpful!!! I appreciate you taking your baby in & out for showing an example I’m sure it was not easy!!
I loved baby wearing. Boba was my choice for stretchy wrap and structured carrier. My friend did a bunch of their photography, so she introduced me to them. I also loved my woven wraps. They’re so supportive and beautiful. I still have one even though my youngest is 8! I just can’t quite give it away.
This is the most comprehensive comparison I could find on TH-cam ! Thank you 🙏
I've been considering buying a boba wrap, so it's nice to know that someone more experienced is a fan. :)
This video is SO helpful, thank you! I really like that you model how to tie each one and give specific pros and cons for knit vs woven and also for each individual type. I am pregnant with my second baby and I have a toddler, I didn't do too much babywearing with my now 20-month-old because I was intimidated by the wrap types- we have Moby, sling, baby bjorn, and an ergo baby but I feel ready to try babywearing on our little guy (due May 2020).
Thank you again for this video! :)
Love it! Thanks Lisa!! Makes me miss the days when my babies would snuggle all day!
Thank you so much for this video ❤️ I just purchased the boba and can't wait to try it! I have a woven one but the lack of stretch and heavier fabric feel makes it less practical to reach for. Thanks again 😊
Comprehensive video and I appreciated the pros/cons. Will recommend this video to anyone interested in wraps. My wife and I have a six week old and we purchased a bjorn, but we’re interesting in something more comfortable/snug/lightweight. I think the knit wrap is what we’re looking for.
Thank you very much for a great explanation and thanks to you precious patient baby who sacrificed his comfort for the sake of this video made for us☺️
I had a friend who was a natural mother similar to you. She home birthed her 8 children, and Taught the at home. She used wraps of all kind. But she wasn’t like you at all....because her and her husband divorced after 20 years! I was devastated! You are a joy to watch, and I appreciate all you do as a wife and mother. You are a great example to many mothers! Have a great great w/ your family
Thank you so much, it was so easy to follow and also no need to watch other videos on this subject, the explanation was just spot on detailed. Bless you for it x
The gentle cooing sounds are just the cherry on top of this awesome video :) :)
Glad you enjoyed
I’m not pregnant but this has always caught my attention. Want to get this whenever I have my first.
Thank you for this! I'm currently looking for a good wrap carrier for my baby due in May and you've made it so easy!
Getting ready for my 4th baby in April and baby wearing for the fourth time. Totally just watching for fun. :) If any moms out there want to know: for quick errands in and out of the car, I love the ring slings. You just throw them over your shoulder and go. The maya is my favorite because it has a large zip pocket at the end big enough for keys, wallet, and a diaper.
I wish I had of found this earlier! What amazing information in the confusion world of baby wearing!
I'm so happy I found this video of yours? I have the KeaBabies and just could not follow their tutorial for their wrap for my newborn. Your method is so much easier and my baby is much comfortable. Thank you
This is by far the best video I’ve seen on this subject - I wish it existed a year ago when I was trying to figure all this out! Would you consider doing a how-to video for carrying toddlers/ back carries in the woven and mai tie wraps? Thanks for the wonderful video, you and Daniel are so beautiful together!
Laurel Mitchell
Yes! I would also like to see options when wearing a toddler
Great video!! Thanks for going thru all the trouble. It’s super helpful! We’re expecting our 3rd so this will definitely come in handy. 😊
I feel so drawn to wearing my baby when he arrives in februari, I'm soooo excited. Thank you for your video
Hi Lisa, happy new year ! What a lovely way to snuggle and bond with your baby! I found my baby snuggler with my third baby! She’s now 21 and her younger brother will both graduate college this spring! Oh how I miss those snuggle days. Ahh grandkids( from my oldest son) yeah more snuggles. 😀🍼👍
I'm on my 3rd baby and have wrapped with each one. I've found that I love a knit wrap until they are confidently holding their head up to look around, then I like the linen ring slings and as soon as I can back carry, those Girasol woven wraps are amazing 😍 so many awesome baby wearing options for parents
My daughter was born 30 May. I loved the solly for the first 3 months. It is expensive, especially taking into account they don't carry a heavier baby. However, it was sooo perfect for summmer months. Me and baby were never too hot and I just wore it all the time during the day. I just didn't buy a second solly purely for price (I'd wash it at night and it would be dry in the morning). From 4 months old until now I've using the boba and loving it.
Wish I had baby wraps when my babies were babies.
I also like the way you also gave safety tips . Back in my day all we had was infant seats and I would carry it room to room of my home because as long as my children could see me they seemed to be more comfortable. Wish I had the wraps . If we did have them in the 70's , I wasn't aware of it. Thank you for sharing
Just wanted to say I used the k’tan with my first daughter (based the size on my shirt size) and I was able to use comfortably from birth to almost two years old. I found it stretched with their wait but the extra sash allowed you to tighten it as you needed. So it’s sized more for the fit on you then the baby, and I found it a great option, especially on the go.
Agreed! Same for us 😊
And YES! I live in a dusty kinda country with a lot of dirt roads and the long tails with wraps get so dirty when I wrap it. Just impossible! The ktan was a breeze and stayed so clean AND I can put it on in like 2 or 3 minutes
First time mom here! Thanks for the video and explanations! Very helpful. The only other thing though, that struck me is the babies inability to be put down without screaming his head off when he's not being worn. That's freaking me out a bit. I think I'll do more research before I decide to do the whole wearing the baby thing! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for such an informative blog...I created a wrap for my grandson .... perfect fit...you are my new shelter in bff
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! Very helpful and I feel less overwhelmed :)
Most informative wrap video ever! Thank you!
Thank you so much I'm definitely getting the boba knit wrap now for my July baby 🤗
I'm a new mom, and this tutorial is amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for sharing
This is so helpful for someone trying to figure out what to get!! Thank you!!
Oh my gosh I LOVE your simple, fresh, farmhouse style. I am inspiredz
Thanks so much 😊
I have 5 and have worn all of mine as well. We have such different babywearing styles!
I started with the Moby and quickly learned it wasnt for me.
I am a huge fan of ring slings and the Ergo for longer journeys, especially outdoors for farm chores.
I also love my Mei Tai.
Me too! Started with the Moby and for all my June/July-born babies (and no AC!) it was brutal. Switched to the Ergo and never looked back. Although I wish I could have tried one of the beautiful woven wraps because they seem so versatile and lovely!
Hands down, one of the best video I have seen on youtube. Thank u for being so amazing and effective !
This was a great, highly informative video! Thank you for sharing your awesome mama knowledge!
I came across your video trying to find a wrap that I can use, as I have physical limitations. I found this incredibly educational. Thank you for posting this!
Glad it was helpful!
In the early to mid 70's, I used an old school Geri carrier which was front worn rather than back pack style. I appreciated more after my second child came along as having to juggle care of two was made less frantic when I could have both hands free. As well as just having my children so close for mutual bonding and comfort. While I didn't use any of the styles you demonstrate ,I believe strongly that their use is beneficial in so many different areas, the least being simple practicality. Bravo you for recognizing and embracing your motherhood!
Really appriciated this info! I tried wrapping with my last baby and didnt love it but I think I will try a little harder with the next one as I will have a toddler and a new born.
Just ordered a Boba. Thank you for all this amazing information!🥰
I am 2nd time mom, 10yrs age gap, and hands on to him now unlike my first born, Your vids helping me a lot,
Actually, I thought I can use any blankets to wrap, and after I watched ur vids there's a lot! Now, I am searching Knit wrap online shopping app .. thank uStay safe, watching from Philippines
I live baby wearing! I have a Solly, a Mei Tai, and I just bought a ring sling!
I was just going to ask about nursing in the carrier and you addressed it 😅 I’ve never been able to figure that out either!
SUPER helpful. I have a katan but just used your link to buy a moby because I think the head support looks more comfy. Mine always fights her head out of the katan and I end up holding her head/feeling like I can’t bend over. Mine was born at home on Oct 24th 😊 love following along with your family and super mom tips!!
I have a JePortMonBebe wrap with my first 2, it's super thick, stretchy and heavy and I have never got on with it. After watching your videos I have bought a second hand solly wrap for my now 3 week old. I have used it for the last 2 weeks every day and it's so good, a million times better and my son loves it.
Thank you this was super helpful! I love my Moby, but want a knit wrap for our new little one.
I loved my Moby during the winter and other cold days, but I bought a WeeSprout wrap for those summer days!
Thank you for the video! The options out there these days for baby wearing are a bit overwhelming, so this is helpful. I’m at 33 weeks with my first so haven’t been to actually try any out yet so trying to research as much as I can in the meantime. I currently have a Boba wrap (glad to see this one is your favorite!) and a couple different structured carriers I got 2nd hand, but would like to also be able to try a woven wrap and sling wrap when they’re born, too.
I did kind of wish this video covered structured carriers and sling wraps, as well. Perhaps for a part II video!
Thanks for this video! Just ordered one from amazon from your recommendation 😊
Thank you so much! I was so confused, but this helps immensely!
very helpful and lots of information. Glad I came across your channel yesterday!!
I made my own knit wraps and absolutley loved them!
How could you make your own? I'm hoping for another baby soon & want to try baby wraps (my other kiddo is 8) and I'm clueless and on a budget
@@prbystacywallen8754 I have a few videos on my channel on how to make DIY baby wraps. It can take as little as 60 seconds! Its just the cost of fabric so mine were about $15-$30 each.
Thank you for this video! Pregnant with my first and this was SUPER helpful!
I’m so glad!
I have a woven, mei tai, ring sling and a rebozo. I used to have a knit, but my rebozo is much like it-and not near the amount of fabric, but for my small frame it's still plenty. I've been baby wearing for about 10 years too.. My boys haven't been big fans of being carried past 3 months, but I still love it. My woven and mei tai are both DIY. My knit was also DIY and it just didn't feel like babe was secure anymore so I quit using it. I just got the rebozo a few years and absolutely LOVE the versatility. I used it during pregnancy and labor in my last pregnancy, a shawl, a nursing cover, carried babe when he was tiny. I'm still trying to figure out the ring sling. LOL I just haven't been able to feel like I can babe secure in it.. It stays in the car as an "emergency" wrap.. But that's it.
This is incredibly informative- thank you very much for this video 🙏🏼
I've been waiting for this video! So helpful.
Super helpful, thanks Lisa!
Oh looking back on this is lovely! He is so big now ❤️. I ripped my long wrap (stepped on it 🤦) so for baby #2 I am very thankful for this video!
Most helpful video I have come accross!
One of your best videos! thanks!
The moby was my 2nd carrier and wayyy to hot. I have ergos, which I like but they tend to hurt my back after awhile. Went to once upon a child after this video and picked up a boba for $14! I am so in love! It isn’t too heavy of a fabric and baby girl just loves it! I’ve also been babywearing my 6 girls on and off for the past 10 years!
How is the boba in summer months for you?
Thank you so much for breaking down the differences and brands 🙏💖 As a new mom, you’ve made it 10x easier to make up my mind 😆
SO helpful for this soon to be mama
just added some of the wraps to my baby registry that I just made yesterday.. this video came in perfect timing for me! Great video :)
Thanks so much for your time on this Lisa! I’ve looked forward to baby carrying my whole life and am currently 35wks with our first 🥰 so this info is great.
Been curious tho- do you not use a typical sling?
You are making me happy I bought the boba ! Soon to be FTM (almost 34 weeks)
This was such a helpful video, Thankyou so so much!
I just stumbled across this and am giving birth next month. I have both boba and Moby in my registry and was going back and forth on which to buy. I’m so glad I came across this though I almost got Moby....probably would have been to thick for a summer baby in Texas 😂 so thank you!!!
great video idea! so helpful. thank you! I’m due in July w my first baby!
Congratulations!
Thank you for sharing. I am having a baby and my last child was 12 yrs ago. I want to wrap her but I don't even know where to start. I used the backpack type of carriers with my first child. This was very helpful
You seem and look so content when wrapped up with Daniel 🥰
Thank you so much for this video, having my baby girl in 4 days & I have 2 other kids I’m sure I’ll benefit from having a baby wrap this time. I went ahead and ordered the boba wrap they always have a 10% off code + free shipping. I paid $38.
Thank you for sharing this video! I love hearing all your pros and cons for each wrap!
Thank you for this video! Super helpful! And thank you baby Micah (I hope I spelled his name correctly) for sacrificing his peaceful nap for showing us different kinds of carriers! lol He's such a cute baby.
Glad it was helpful!
I've tried so many wraps. Moby, Boba, Ring Sling and other structured carriers like the ergo. I've had two babies and they just don't like them. My babies much prefer being down. I so wanted carriers and wraps to work but I've had to give up. Just wanted to share for anyone in the same boat as me. Not all babies like being constantly held.
Thanks for all the information!! So helpful!
thank you 4 sharing your experiences lisa :)
extremely informative for a new mom-2-be! thank you xoxo
I have been waiting for you to do a video like this and because you didn't, I ended up buying the baby ktan but I wish I could've known that light baby wraps all the ones I've tried were way too hot for me. Anyway, thank you so much for finally doing it, I hope God blesses our family with more kids we only have one, send xoxo
I love this ! I am loving the Ktan wrap - I have bought the Konny Baby Carrier which is similar - less fabric, and simple to use.
I am worried though as you mentioned - the con of a "set" wrap, baby will grow quickly and my body could change, and as it isn't adjustable, it limits the time to use it.
Awesome product and beautiful mom and babies.🥰 I am sharing this to my daughter in law. It's her first baby❤. She is due any time.🙌 She's only 18 years old. So the information you share here is going to be very helpful for her.😇😇😇
Thank you very much for sharing💞
Omg you are such a wonderful mama wearing all 6 of your babies. ☀️✌🏼❤️
I used a K’tan for #1 and boba and Bjorn for #2 and loved the boba for the first few months and then the Bjorn for the first year. You are amazing 😘
Only complaint is that it comes in the original packaging. So everyone knows what it is and could potentially be stolen. Other than that it seems like it’ll be comfortable. I’m currently 5 days away from giving birth and it fits around my belly comfortably. Price wise it’s perfect. Can’t wait to use this with my new little one while chasing my toddler.
Fabulous video, very helpful thank you!!
This is very helpful and detailed, thank you
Thank you for this video!! I‘m pregnant with our first and a minimalist. I don‘t want to buy multiples of everything, so I think a knit wrap would be great for both me and my husband to use with baby in the early stages. We‘re pretty active people so I hope baby will be ok with being carried 😂❤
Thanks so much for this video!! I’m gonna go with the boba , I think. If I hadn’t found this video, I may have ended up getting the moby . And I def want stretch
