Product Information

Definitely Ergobaby Omni 360. I’ve had about four [carriers] and this is by far the best. Still use it now with my two-year-old…. well my husband does as she’s too heavy for me now” - recommended by Mumsnet user NewBabyGirl2020 Our verdict You need to learn how to adjust it and wrap it just tight enough to secure your baby while making sure that you both are still comfortable in it. Thanks to the Boba Wrap’s brilliant fit, your baby remains snug as you get on with other tasks, but you may find that you’re not completely hands-free, depending on what you’re doing. While it can be used until six years of age, your child is unlikely to want to be carried once they start school

We all know and love ErgoBaby for its awesome baby carriers, with some of the best soft-structured carriers on the market. Only recently did ErgoBaby venture into the baby carrier market, with great results! The Aura is their flagship baby wrap, offering super soft, extremely lightweight, breathable, and supportive fabric that can accomplish a wide range of wrap configurations. The wrap is designed to support infants as small as 7 pounds, all the way up to 25 pounds; after that point, you'll want to switch to a soft-structured carrier. The Aura is made of 100% viscose derived from eucalyptus and acacia plants, and measures nearly 17 feet long! When we got our hands on it for testing, we were surprised at how long and thin it was. Unlike most other wraps, the ErgoBaby is great as a warmer weather wrap, with its super thin, lightweight, and breathable fabric. Given its length, it's also great for larger and plus-size moms who are looking for a wrap that won't run out of fabric mid-wrap! If your baby enjoys swings or bouncy seats, you may find you don’t need a wrap as much, but it’s still helpful if you need to be out and about. 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. Some wearers won’t like the sensation of being surrounded by so much material, no matter how soft it is, and they may find even the lightweight Boba a bit warm.The Boba Bliss Baby Carrier is our incredible hybrid carrier that will offer your little newborn the softness of the wrap in combination with the ease of use of a carrier for you.

If you still can’t decide between the two, I would first recommend to think of the features you prioritize in a baby carrier.

Tying the wrap nice and snug will ensure your baby doesn’t slip, sag or slump in the carrier and that wearing your baby feels like wearing a hug - comfortable, secure, and safe! There’s no specific age when you must stop using a baby wrap. Instead, refer to a wrap’s specific guidelines around height and weight.

If the wrap feels too tight or baby is too high up on your chest, try the following before retying: Ease of cleaning: Can the baby carrier be machine-washed? Is the design likely to get dirty or show up marks? Is there a risk of it trailing on the ground when being put on or taken off? Many baby carriers are machine-washable (on cool or gentle cycles) while others are spot-clean only. Removable dribble bibs can help reduce the impact of the most obvious source of stains. The Boba Wrap can be extremely useful for cuddling bigger babies or even toddlers on days when they might need extra love and comfort. The gentle all-around pressure helps reduce excessive stimuli and allows a baby to rest more peacefully, not to mention the magic of your touch and closeness.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. You then tie the tails around your waist, wherever is most comfortable, which makes this a waistband-free option.

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. 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! The Boba Wrap is the best baby wrap for your little one's earliest months. Unlike the structured Boba X microcarrier, which is suitable for both babies and toddlers, the Boba Wrap is a stretchy fabric that is wrapped around the body, creating a carrier with a close and comfortable hold for younger babies.

The only difference is that you need to fold Moby in half (width-wise, not length-wise) before tying.
