Natibaby Faelinh

By
Brand Name: Natibaby
Wrap Name: Faelinh

 Reviewed by: Christi Bedell
Size of Wrap: 6
Fabric Content: 70% Cotton/30% hemp


How long has this wrap been used by you? 
Two weeks
What size is the wrapee (ex: age, height & lbs): 
2 years, 32 inches, 20 lbs and 4 years, 38 inches, 35 lbs. 
What is the thickness of this wrap (ex: thin, Med, Thick): 
Medium Thick 
Is the wrap being reviewed a reweave of another original release? If so please tell which version you have?   No 
Did/Does it have cush: 
Yes, this wrap softens quickly and is comfortable to wear, even with larger babies.
How did it feel on your shoulders: 
Faelinh felt comfortable on my shoulders even with my 35 lb, 4 year old.
How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have (ex: none- ace bandage like): 
This wrap is mildly stretchy but thicker and not as moldable as most newer Natibaby wraps I have tried. However, because it’s supportive and cushy, I would recommend it especially for larger babies and children.
How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry?
Very supportive both front and back.
How supportive did you find it in a double layer carry? 
I did not try this in a double layer carry.
Can you compare this wrap to another wrap already on the market? 
Faelinh most reminds me of Natural Hemp India made by Didymos. However, Faelinh is softer with more cush and less grip. Passes glide easily but remain in place because of the mild, but not overwhelming grip. 
Who do you think this wrap would best be geared to (ex: babies, toddlers, New Babywearers, Advanced Babywearers): 
I think this is a great wrap for larger babies and experienced wearers. I feel as though Faelinh is thicker than most wraps and may be difficult for new wearers to tigthen. I also think that it work well for larger babies. It may be overwhelming to wrap a smaller baby in such a wrap. 
Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it? 
Yes! This wrap is very comfortable on the shoulders and incredibly supportive even in single passes with heavy toddlers and preschoolers. Though the wrap felt rough when I first received it, a quick wash and running it through sling rings for 10-15 minutes softened the wrap dramatically. It’s soft, strong, supportive and cushy with just a little grip.

Please tell us a little more about yourself (ex: how long have you been wearing, how many different wraps have you tried, what is your babywearing background): 
I have been babywearing for four years and wrapping for two years. I have tried hundreds of wraps from many companies.

How to fix a pull in a woven wrap      If you are just joining us. Welcome!!! Welcome to the best blog you will ever read, (hehe). We are currently doing a blog series called "How to care and fix that woven wrap of yours".  The first post was an introduction and gave you the run down on how to care for your woven wrap .

In that post I walked you thru both in photos and text how to treat and fix thread shifting.       Today we are going to focus on how to fix a pull in a woven wrap.

How to make your woven wrap soft and floppy, otherwise known as breaking it in

By
You just received your wrap, but it's not as soft, floppy and cuddly as you were hoping for? Don't despair!  We'll help you get that wrap buttery soft and floppy! Okay, how do you get it to change? There are several tried and true methods, but the simple answer....break down the fibers by moving them.   Friction against them will wear them down. When you first get your wrap, give it a wash and dry  (following the washing instructions per blend)  This step will dramatically change the wrap right away and you'll notice that it's not as stiff. Give it a steam iron, or two or three (depending on the fiber) Steam ironing will break the fibers down quickly.  I've also noticed that when I steam iron it width wise it helps more then when I steam iron it moving the iron from side to side. That may just be my little quirk of mine though... Pull it through sling rings,if you have them.   If not create a loop and pull the rest of
