Similar to the original Moby Wrap, the Moby D Wrap offers a distinctive fabric panel that is perfect for trendy moms. The silk or woven panel in the Moby D Wrap adds a section of non-stretchy fabric to help support the baby, and adds a different, deluxe and distinctive look. In addtion, each end of the Moby D Wrap is a different length, so the knot ties at the side, instead of the front or back. The Moby D Wrap measures 5 meters in length. Be Comfortable The design of the Moby Wrap uses your entire back, as well as your shoulders, to carry the weight of your baby. Unlike other carriers, which have narrow straps or go across one shoulder, the Moby Wrap is a wide piece of fabric that is wrapped over both shoulders. It is amazingly comfortable and easy to wear. There are no buckles, snaps or other fasteners. It is easy to adjust the fit of your Moby Wrap by varying how tightly you wrap yourself and your baby. Be Secure The Moby Wrap comes with an easy to follow instructional guide and a website with the latest news, tips and techniques. With the single stretch cotton and the width of the Moby Wrap, your baby is wrapped close and tight, insuring a secure hold. Your baby's head can also be secured under the stretchy cotton fabric for added safety. You can finally have both hands free and know your baby is safe and secure. Be Close There is not a lot of extra material or bulky padding between you and your baby. Your baby can hear your heartbeat and finds comfort in the warmth of your body, and sound of your heartbeat within the cuddly confines of the Moby Wrap. Preemie to 35 lbs The Moby Wrap is an optimal baby carrier for premature infants. Preemies are often prescribed to practice "kangaroo care" and this skin-to-skin practice used to increase birth weight can be easily achieved while wearing the Moby Wrap. The Moby Wrap is long enough to adapt to your growi

Summary: Perfect for a newborn
Comment: Using this product was the only chance I had to have both hands in the first 6 weeks of my son's life. He can breastfeed in it and loves sleeping in it while I run around the house. Now he is 8 weeks old and is getting a bit more mobile, so I will probably need to try new wrap styles.

Summary: Comfortable Carrier
Comment: My son really liked this as a newborn and I liked how it didn't kill my back like all the other carriers did. It can be a little difficult to put on and I often have trouble getting it tight enough but overall I think it's great. My baby is four months now and doesn't seem to like it much anymore but that could just be him.

Summary: So comfy for mom and baby!
Comment: I love this carrier! I used a Baby Bjorn for my other children and purchased another for my new baby, but I wanted a Moby Wrap also. I never use the Baby Bjorn anymore, my son is 8 months old and since he was about 6 months old (about 18lbs.) the Baby Bjorn has caused back strain. The Moby has caused no back strain and my son is quite at ease in it. He does not like sitting in shopping carts so in order to get my grocery shopping done I put him in the Moby and he is quite content and often falls asleep in it. I also use the Moby to go on walks, since carrying an extra 20lbs. around is great exercise! Coffee got spilled on my instructions so I went to the Moby website and followed the instructions there, but now I do not need them and I can put the carrier on as fast as the Baby Bjorn, it is really not difficult. I love the soft fabric and definitely recommend this carrier!!

Summary: Loved this product !!!
Comment: This was my third baby carrier and I have to admit I LOVE THIS ONE! My son is 20lbs and he just turned 6 months. Many other carriers put all the weight on your neck or back but this one spreads it out. I almost forget that I have a huge baby strapped to me! And he LOVES to snuggle in there! The soft material doesnt tear or itch his soft skin. i would recommend this product to anyone!

Summary: Once it's on, it's GREAT!
Comment: I am a mother to a 20-month old and a 3-month old and have tried so many slings and wraps, it's ridiculous. This is by far my favorite to date. Here are some pros and cons:
Cons:
-- SOOOOO much fabric! It is difficult to handle it all and it drags on the ground (or parking lot) when you are trying to get it on. It must be at least 15 feet long.
-- Scared to wash it because there is a fold in the fabric (along the long edge) and I am afraid the crease will wash out and I'll have to try to iron it back in. What a hassle that would be.
-- Not worth putting on for short-term use. I would not bother if I plan to use it for 15 minutes or less.
Pros:
-- Once it's on, it is so comfortable, you can hardly feel it--really! Even after an hour, I have no shoulder or back pain. At all! It's practically miraculous. I always put my baby in it to grocery shop, which takes at least an hour each time (we walk to the grocery store and back). I have both hands free to push my older daughter in her stroller and to shop and my baby just sleeps the whole time.
-- It's versatile. You can use it to carry your babies in front of you, on your hip, on your back, etc.
-- Both my daughters love it and can stand to be in it for a loooong time.
-- It is very supportive for my baby who still needs some neck support. Her head flopped around too much in both the Snugli and the Baby Bjorn.
-- If you tie the fabric off in the back, you can cover (or feel like you're covering) the bulk of your post-baby butt.
-- It did not work great for nursing, but that may be my inexperience in using this type of wrap. I do use the fabric to cover up if I'm nursing in public, but have to remove it to do that.
I HIGHLY recommend this wrap. The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I wish the pros could be accomplished with a lot less fabric.
