Lovin' the Moby

Isabella loves her Moby Wrap that Aunt Nancy gave us for Christmas. We were a little hesitant at first, basically it is just a big piece of fabric and there are 8 eight steps in the instructions, just to get the wrap on yourself before even starting to put the baby in, but it turns out the instructions were really straight forward. Once we get the wrap on ourselves and put her in it, it really seems to calm her down if she is cranky. Plus, your arms are free giving you the ability to actually do other stuff. My back has been hurting a little lately, and unfortunately I feel it hurting a little when I'm wearing the wrap, so I'll have to be careful about that. I think my back is still just getting used to carrying around a baby all the time.

Here is a link to the Moby site: http://www.mobywrap.com/

If anyone is interested in getting one, they are more than welcome to come over and borrow ours first to see if they and their child actually likes it as much as Isabella does.

Here is a picture of Jeff with Isabella facing forward, which he's not actually supposed to have her in this position until she has better control of her neck. Typical male - he only 1/2 read the instructions....

Are you trying to get the fabric spread out? Maybe that will help your back.

Oh, you look adorable (and what a proud sister you have!) - your wrap jobs will get much better over time.
