By
Brand Name: Natibaby

Wrap Name: Starry Night

Reviewed by: Nina Naus

Size of Wrap: 4

Fabric Content: 60% Linen,  40% Cotton






How long has this wrap been used by you?
4-5 weeks

What size is the wrappee?
23lbs, 28-19 inches, 14 months old

What is the thickness of this wrap?
Thick before breaking in. After initial wash and steam iron it is medium thickness.

Does it have cush?
This wrap has so much cush. It is mashmallowy and OMG that stretch! This seemed like it was going to be a very thick wrap and difficult to break in. Oh… was I wrong!!! It became floppy and molded right to me and baby with any carry we tried.

How does it feel on your shoulders?
This wrap was perfect on my shoulders. It seemed as though the baby was not even on my back. The wrap appears to be beastly, but is so soft and cushy on the shoulder after a short breaking in period.

How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have?
This wrap has a lot of stretch for a linen/cotton blend. It's to the wrappers advantage though. This stretch makes any style wrap very snuggly and comfortable for baby and mama.
How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry?
A ruck was amazingly supportive with Starry Night. Shoulders were very comfortable and baby felt weightless. Plus, what better way to show of that beautiful design and texture than across baby's back. Also, the diagonal stretch allowed baby to snuggle right into the seat.

How supportive did you find it in a double layer carry?
This is a shorter wrap size, but a RRRR carry with Starry night was a dream. The second pass slide right into place and locked down like Fort Knox. It was wonderful and so comfortable. This is definitely a toddler worthy wrap. So incredibly supportive.

 Can you compare this wrap to another wrap already on the market?
Compared to other linen/cotton blends from Natibaby that I have tried this one has the cush and stretch that I have been waiting for. It is a wonderful weave. It's texture and gorgeous design are just the beginning of this awesome wrap. After washing it did not lose the weave texture and is so super soft and much thinner.

Who do you think this wrap would best be geared to?
This wrap would be great for New-advanced babywearers. It is a little wide, so wearing a newborn might be difficult at first, but it would be best for all age children. It's extremely toddler worthy.

Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it?
I would absolutely recommend this wrap to a friend. After an initial wash, and a couple passes of a steam iron it is soooooo wonderful. I have never found a stretch and cush like this in another wrap (yet). We fell in love with the snuggliness of this wrap after it's first wash. Plus, it just get better the more we wrapped.

Please tell us a little more about yourself:
I have been wrapping for about a year. I started with a Moby stretchy wrap, I’ve tried Girasols, Ellevill, and a lot of Tekhni wraps. I would still say I’m still a newer wrapper, but I like to take risks and try new carries all the time. I am a VBE for BWI of Chicagoland and I have tried a lot of different carriers over the last year (or so) of babywearing.
