A Tale of Two Giras

Brand Name: Girasol Wrap Name: Earth Rainbow  Standard Weave vs. Boy or Girl Thick Weave Reviewed by: Sara Stobart Size of Wrap: 4 Fabric Content: 100% Cotton How long has this wrap been used by you? 1 week What size is the wrappee? 14 months, 29 in, 20lbs What is the thickness of this wrap? Medium, the second was thick for a Gira Does it have cush? I found both weaves to be really easy to wrap with, but the standard weave was not at all cushy or comfortable with my toddler. The thicker weave didn’t feel soft and moldable straight out of the bag like a typical Gira, but I had no problem wrapping tightly to my body.

Brand Name: Natibaby Wrap Name:  Rainbow Song with Linen Reviewed by: Nina Naus Size of Wrap: 6 Fabric Content: 60% Cotton,  40% Linen 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? Thin Does it have cush? Rainbow song is a solid wrap, but it does not have cush because it is a thin wrap. How does it feel on your shoulders? Let me start by saying I have very picky shoulders. I had a difficult time getting this wrap comfortable on my shoulders without sandwiching it. However, it felt best in a double hammock with sandwiched shoulders and doubled up chest pass.
