Didymos Flora

By
Brand Name: Didymos

Wrap Name: Flora

Reviewed by: Brittany Marsh

Size of Wrap: 5

Fabric Content: 100% cotton



How long has this wrap been used by you?
One week

What size is the wrappee?
8 months, 25 inches, 19 lbs

What is the thickness of this wrap?
I've felt thinner, but it is not quite medium.

Does it have cush?
It does!  It molds perfectly to my body and feels extremely comfortable on me from all angles.

How does it feel on your shoulders?
It was very comfortable, and not diggy at all.  I can imagine it feeling a little diggy if she were maybe 10lbs heavier.

How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have?
It has a great amount of stretch!  Not ace-bandage like, but close.

How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry?
I found it to be more supportive than I expected!  I could comfortably do a front wrap cross carry tied under bum and felt certain that Maxine wouldn't be able to bend back out of it.  

How supportive did you find it in a double layer carry?
Extremely supportive!  I did a double hammock tied at my shoulder and not only did my daughter feel weightless, I knew that she was not going to budge.


Can you compare this wrap to another wrap already on the market?
I'd compare this to Didymos Iris.  It is easy to wrap with and I could see a new wrapper using this easily, especially since the rails are different colors.


Who do you think this wrap would best be geared to?
I think this wrap is best for babies and new babywearers, though an advanced babywearer would love it just as much.

Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it?
I would definitely recommend this wrap to a friend.  It is very easy to wrap with and it is so beautiful!  The pattern made me fall in love with floral wraps and I hope that Didymos releases this in multiple colors.  I cannot stop raving about this wrap.


Please tell us a little more about yourself:
I'm a 26 year old college student and first time mom.  I've been babywearing for 8 months since my daughter was born.  I have tried over a dozen wraps and counting.  I am used to many babywearing carriers and slings, but my strongest point is ring slings.  Babywearing is a huge passion of mine!
