Boba Baby Wrap Carrier - Original Baby Carrier Wrap, Baby Sling for Newborns - Baby Wearing Essentials - Hands-Free Newborn Wrap Swaddle Holder, Newborn to Toddler Infant Baby Sling, 7-35 lbs (Black)

Recently while pregnant with my 4th baby I bought the new version of the Ergo carrier I faithfully used with my first 3 children. It felt very stiff and not as comfortable as I remembered. Once this baby was born I tried to use it a couple times and both my baby and I hated it. I needed to try something else and decided on the Boba wrap. I had tried a wrap with my 2nd baby 10yrs ago and I never got the hang of it (was not boba) but I was determined to try again. It could not have been more easy. My baby is so happy in the boba and it’s so comfortable for us both. I wear it daily around the house and we go on 3-4 mile walks and he usually sleeps the whole time. I get a lot of comments and compliments and people have stopped to ask me about it. The only thing that is a downside is nothing about the functionality itself but rather the fact that it’s like 20ft of fabric so it’s not the most convenient to slap on when you’re out and about. If I know I’ll be wearing baby once we get to our destination, I’ll put it on at home in front of the mirror right before we leave. I also have gotten the hang of putting it on in the car, which is preferable to outside of the car so that it doesn’t touch the ground. It’s always neatly folded in my diaper bag backpack if I’m not wearing it, I don’t leave home without it. I almost bought the black so that it goes with everything but the grey color was so appealing to me in the stock photos and I’d say the stock photos represent the true grey color well. It’s a really nice neutral warm grey that works really well with my wardrobe and I think the wrap looks very chic. It’s affordable and such a good option for baby wearing.

This wrap carrier is great! The material is so thin and soft that I’m not worried about baby overheating. It’s stretchy and comfortable. Comes with instructions for how to wrap, once you fit it a few times it’s pretty easy to remember and do. Baby loves it, and I can get a lot done while wearing baby (like eat and make coffee!!)

I initially purchased the Balboa baby sling from BuyBuyBaby (my other favorite baby gear store) but returned it within one week because I hated it because my baby hated it! The sling was difficult to get right for my then 6 week old who was too young to put in that contraption - no matter how tight I made the sling (which for those of you who have tried it, once you make it that tight to fit a tiny tiny person, it is extremely difficult to get off - especially when your baby is wailing!) I tried that thing a few times during that week but I never felt comfortable that no matter what I was doing, my baby was breathing properly and that it was safe. So I returned it.I initially did NOT want a long wrap with lots and lots of fabric that I had to figure out what to do with. Not to mention that I was uncomfortable with the thought that the fabric might unravel and that I might drop my baby! But after failing at one of those pre-made slings, I had to try something that I could make on my own and women had been using for centuries to carry their little ones.So I did a little bit of research on wraps and slings and narrowed it down to this or the Moby wrap from Amazon. I don't remember what I saw that made me select the Boba over the Moby (price maybe) but I went with this. So far this product is amazing! This is my favorite item next to my baby's car seat, here's why:1. I can hold my baby super close to my heart and chest giving both me and my baby lots of comfort. I didn't realize how much I missed having that close connection with my baby during my pregnancy until I wore him in this for a couple of weeks and remembered that this little guy that i was hugging on the outside of my body was just inside my body a few short weeks ago.2. The color in grey is nice and subtle and sometimes when I wear this wrap, it looks like its a cool part of my outfit (not really but at least I don't feel like i'm wearing a backpack).3. I can wear the sling all day long. When I put baby in his car seat, I hop into the driver's seat and take off without unclipping/unwrapping/undoing anything. When I get to where I need to be, I just pop baby back in and we head off. I didn't realize how much mobility this offers me compared to a stroller but if you don't have one of these - you seriously need one.4. BEST thing to get baby to go to sleep. You can wear this 3 ways from what I've seen so far (infant hug hold, cradle hold, and baby hug hold -where the baby's legs are dangling from the bottom). I use this in the cradle hold to get my baby to sleep and tuck him in the fabric to hold his head secure and his body snug to mine. With a few bouncy bouncy bouncies on a quick 2 minute walk, my baby is out for his nap!I love the concept of this baby carrier, which is why i gave it 5 stars. However, I am on the lookout for a cooler version of the wrap for the summer time as the material doesn't breathe very much and after an hour walking with my son, he gets too hot and sweaty (for those of you who are trying to figure that out, when you are hot and sweaty, so is your baby because heat transfers when you are holding your baby).If you currently do not have a baby carrier and have a newborn or infant less than 12 weeks - I HIGHLY recommend the wrap. it is perfect for you and your baby and is probably easier to get him accustomed to being in this early on rather than later on.

The Boba Baby Wrap Carrier is a fantastic option for newborns.Its soft, stretchy fabric ensures a snug fit, providing comfort for both the baby and caregiver.Easy to wrap and adjust, it offers support for various carrying positions, making it versatile for daily use.The design promotes bonding while keeping hands free for other tasks, making outings effortless.Perfect for parents looking to combine convenience with closeness!

Bought these for a friend and she absolutely loves them, total lifesavers and very comfortable, not hard to use but need time to get used to and she does love that they are adjustable and easy to wash. Point is, moms, this one's a good one!

I got the classic boba wrap, the moby, and the serenity boba, and I loved the serenity so much that I bought two more! My baby loves being held, and the other wraps I’ve tried have fabric that doesn’t stretch as much, making it less forgiving if you tie up too tight and super easy to use. The serenity is super lightweight and stretches around your baby’s body to help them feel more comfortable. I like that it is able to support all body shapes, and I can carry baby safely and easily without back pain unless I’ve tied it too loose and she starts sagging down. Fabric seems to be good quality. My only complaint, which really applies to all wraps, is that the tighter you tie the wrap the less space you have for your baby’s face to poke out. My baby gets overheated when their face is covered, so I’ve had to pull the shoulders down a bit to help her stay comfy.
