Baby Sling Parents – Definitive Guide To Baby Carriers

Moby Wrap Moby D Baby Carrier Earth Tones and Chocolate

A wrap-around style baby carrier with the same great comfort as the original Moby Wrap, now with a destinctive look. The Moby D has a fabric panel in the center portion of the wrap that is made of either hand-woven cotton, Asian brocade silk, or fleece. While all fabric panels add aesthetically, the woven cotton and silk provide a piece of non-stretchy material to aid in supporting heavier babies and the fleece provides additional warmth. A few more differences to note are: the Moby D measures 5 meters in length, the Moby Wrap is 5.5 meters. The edges of the Moby D are hemmed, and the Moby Wrap’s are over-locked. The Moby D’s end knot is tied at the side, and the Moby Wrap’s can be tied either in front or back.

5 Stars Great on the back
I owned a Baby Bjorn with my first daughter and found it to be very hard on my back in a matter of minutes. The Moby D allows me to carry my baby for long periods of time in comfort! I also found the directions very easy to follow.

5 Stars Comfortable, stylish and secure.
I love my Moby D. I wear it around the house when doing chores. This allows a fussy baby to be held and sleep while I have 2 free hands to eat and do things.

* It is great to go on long walks: it keeps her secure, covered, warm, close to me, and allows her see things and hear me at the same time.

* The D allows for a bit of fashion, and I like the difference in fabric.

* The stretch is really nice, and goes back to original shape after being washed. It does not stretch out too quickly.

* So many carrying positions allows for many choices of holding the baby depending on the situation, and their mood.

* Excellent way to bond, esp the kangaroo hold.

* Can be a bit warm in warmer weather, but then wear less under. It ends up looking like your shirt if you pull the straps over your shoulders like sleeves. You can layer it by wearing a jacket over and partially zipped up in cooler weather.

* Unisex colors are great for both my husband and me, and it’s one size fits all so we can share the same one.

* Best way to travel in airports.

I would choose this over a hotsling. This is excellent for the price, and you get a lot more use out of this than the slings.

5 Stars worth every penny!!!
I LOVE this wrap! It is comfy, pretty, and keeps my fussy boy calm. It can get a little warm, but not as bad as every other carrier I’ve tried… having another human body against your is going to be warm regardless. I love how versatile this wrap is and how well it distributes the weight. My hubby actually wants one for himself because of how well it calms our fussy boy.

4 Stars Great wrap but stretches out funny
I LOVE this wrap, and my baby loves to be carried in it. I wish I had bought a wrap with regular cotton in the front. The fleece is already stretched out funny, and I’ve only been using it for 3 months!

5 Stars great carrier
This is a wonderful way to carry your baby! My 6wk daughter loves it and goes to sleep in it every time. Very easy to use,great for walks, so don’t be intimidated by the idea of having to wrap it around you.

4 Stars Does the Job
I use my console all the time. I dont understand what others are referining to. It holds my water bottles and coffee cups great (the coffee sometimes spills if totally full which is why I only gave it 4 stars and not 5. I use one pocket for keys and the other for easy to grab snacks. I also use it as a place to put trash until I get home so I dont have to hold it. I think it is great and very useful.

5 Stars Works great for the City Mini
I’m not sure what the other reviews are talking about, this console is great. It fits my City Mini perfectly and is a great place to keep a drink, your keys, and whatever else you want to keep out. Highly recommend!

1 Star Don’t buy it!!!
It sucks!!!

Does not stay up…

it keeps falling…you cannot even place a bottle of water on it!

Does not work with city select.

Big waste of money!

2 Stars not good for water bottles
We have the City Classic from 2008 and it velcros to the back of the stroller perfectly. The only problem is that it’s meant for keys, cellphones and other small items, not a water bottle which was the main reason why I bought it. Because there is not enough space, it doesn’t fit my aluminum Sigg, it only fits a plastic water bottle because you have to reshape it. If I had known this, I would’ve purchased something else.

1 Star It didn’t fit
We bought this for the Baby Jogger City Mini Single stroller and it doesn’t fit. A total waste for us. If you need i for the City Mini, buy something else.

Baby Bottle Holder for Hands Free Bottle Feeding by Bebe Bottle Sling LLC

The Bebe Bottle Sling is designed to hang from any infant car seat handle while holding the baby bottle at the correct position for hands free bottle feeding. Not only will it help the parent, but it’s a cute toy that can teach the baby how to hold the baby bottle on their own. Stop using bottle props or proppers that you don’t want the infant to play with because you will be constantly repositioning the baby bottle. Use a baby bottle holder that the baby is encouraged to grab and play with because it helps them develop the hand eye coordination needed to feed themselves while entertaining the baby and helping the parent. Purchase is for one brown monkey Bebe Bottle Sling. Car seat and bottle not included.

5 Stars Best. Thing. Ever.
I purchased this as an option for my busy family. I have a four and a half year old, and it seemed like whenever I had to feed the baby, he needed me too- but of course my hands were literally busy. I ordered this because my six month old does NOT like the Podee system, and needed something to be my ‘third arm’ some days. This does a great job of keeping the bottle steady and angled slightly to prevent swallowing air. He enjoys the friendly face, and he can take breaks and pop it back into his mouth as he chooses. Without it, we would be fumbling with blankets, dropping bottles, and generally making a mess. It is a lifesaver at restaurants when I have to feed the baby AND cut up my older son’s food. When my baby is too big to ride safely in his carseat in the car, I may still use it as a portable feeding seat with the Bottle Sling around the house (or to Grandma’s) until he can hold it all on his own. I would love to find more uses for it!

5 Stars Awesome Product
Iam very happy with this awesome sling .I only have one Baby but I also have an older child with special needs so therefore I’m not always able to hold my baby while feeding , its easy to use and perfectly safe .

To everyone that keeps giving this product a bad review without owning it.

You should only leave a coment if you bought or used this product nobody had asked for your opinion !!!!You dont know what it feels like unless you been there .I have no family to help me and my husband is in a warzone while i have to care for our children by myself but Iam not complaining just trying to make life a little easier !!!

Thank you Ergo for this awesome Product!!!!

5 Stars A lifesaver
This product was a lifesaver. My husband and I have twins which we kept on the same feeding schedule for the first 9 months. This enabled one parent to feed two babies at the same time. We just set them in their car seats, arranged both seats so they were facing the adult and sat on the floor with them until they were done. When they decided they had had enough they would just push the bottle out of their mouth with their tongue until they got old enough to swat it away (which they then turned into a game). As with any bottle propping, you need to use some common sense (don’t leave the room, don’t start working on something that will divert your attention) but this product was great and made our first year MUCH easier and more pleasant.

1 Star NOT good!
This product is not safe. There is a risk of a baby choking because the milk keeps coming out even when they are finished. Hold your babies Moms!

2 Stars Bottle dripping a problem
I have twin 6 month olds and loved the idea of this product. Sorry to report that my babies got soaked. They are not great at holding their own bottles yet and the bottles swing away and drip all over them.

4 Stars Baby likey
This sling was a gift from one of my co-workers. i was hesitant to use it at first but one day when my baby was really fussy i tried it out. as soon as i started moving around with her in it she settled down and fell asleep. i now use it when we go out shopping together. i also find it helpful because in public it keeps strangers who love to touch babies at bay since she is so close to me they would be invading my personal space if they touched the baby.

it is sometimes difficult to get my baby in and out but i think that is more because i need more practice. the picture on the instruction manual makes it look much easier than it actually is. but once she is in it comfortably it is worth it.

4 Stars Great product, I bought mine too small
I wish I had chosen the larger size. I have others now and (different brand) and love them. They take some getting used to thats for sure but once you start to trust them you can discover a whole new world of having you baby close and comfortable and you can have your hands free too!!

When chosing your size keep your height and bust size in mind. I am a 38DD (post prego) and 5’8”. I should’ve gotten the large.

3 Stars Try it on first!
I went through 3 other slings before we tried this one. I am 5’2″ and have a short torso. I have also been *ahem* well endowed in the chest area. The short torso and ample bossom made this sling impossible for me. The small / medium was too tight. I could barely get my daughter in and out at 4 months old. The large hung too low on me. The baby hung by my thighs and it put so much strain on my back that it made it impossible to wear her for longer than 10 minutes. Even in different positions, we couldn’t find a way to make it work with either size. The hip carry with the small just dug into her little legs and made her cry. With the large, the hip carry didn’t support her well enough. If you can find this in a store where you can try it on before buying, I would recommend it. The design is great – it’s a pocket style which is very easy to manuever. Just be careful of the sizing on these!

5 Stars Just what I was hoping for!
I bought mine at a store but still wanted to give a review. I am 5’8″ and about 155lbs I thought a large would be the size for me and tried it on in the store with my 6month old in it and I didn’t feel like she was close enough to me. Needless to say I got a s/m and it’s perfect. It keeps her right up against me. (They are suppose to fit snug and have the baby up higher.) If you aren’t quite sure I would recommend googling images of people using theirs. I personally wouldn’t recommend this type for under 4 months because I like her riding on my hip which requires a head control (at least a little). Anyway good investment!!!

5 Stars Hands Free!
My son loves it! He is so happy when hes in it and the size fits me well. I am 5’2″ and i got a S/M. Its not as confusing as those other slings where you have to actually try it on because the sizing is different. I love that there’s padding on the sling and you can use it different ways! Great for babies who never like to be put down.
