$ Moby Wrap Moby D 100 Silk Baby Carrier Flowers

I have both the moby and the jade moby d. First, the jade silk is a beautiful versatile pattern. It seems that it would match with nearly any solid color. And it is nice as a new mommy who feels covered in spit-up and can't find matching socks for herself to have something that feels really stylish. The downside to the moby d is that it is harder to use than the plain moby. The moby d is not as long, and I can tell you that this post partum belly of mine needs all the length I can get. It is actually designed to not do that final wraparound around your waist. In addition, the silk panel doesn't stretch at all. The end result of these two changes is that it is more difficult to figure out how to tie properly. You have to tie it a bit looser so that there is enough fabric to get around your baby. If you leave too little, because there is no stretch to the silk, it will be too tight for your little one. Too loose and you are afraid that baby might fall out. As time is passing I'm getting better at it, but it is taking weeks. With the regular Moby, this was a non-issue. The reason I bought this was because I was hoping that the silk panel would make it cooler for my little one because she gets too hot in the moby, particularly the newborn hold. She ends up spending all her time in cradle hold, which makes me nervous because the head support is more precarious and I end up supporting her head with my arm. At any rate, the silk panel on the moby d does not make her appreciably cooler. All in all, I would probably not buy the moby d again as I find the moby to be stylish enough.



I do also have an ergo and a baby bjorn. I would say that for a true newborn (I've been using a carrier since she was 5 days old and she is now 6 weeks) the baby bjorn is the best. It has good head support, it is designed so that you can take out a sleeping baby without disrupting their sleep, so for baby it is the best. But, I do find myself using the moby quite a bit because if you put it on in the morning (it is as comfy and stylish as a shirt)) And you can take her in and out of the moby at a moments notice, throughout the day. This is particularly nice when you are going somewhere outside the house. The Bjorn is a bit more of a contraption. You wouldn't and pretty much couldn't leave it on once baby is out of it. I would say, to look into the comfort bjorn as the original, which I have, really is hard on your back because of the lack of lumbar support. As for the Ergo, my little one hates that infant insert. It is too hot and confining. But, the Ergo, is the only one of the 3 that I could figure out how to nurse in. Also, out of the 3 carriers it is most comfortable on your back. I think once my little one no longer needs the infant insert, the ergo will likely replace the bjorn.
