Medium thin Does it have cush? Believe it or not this wrap is cushy and soft. It molds so nicely to the wrapper and baby. Not to mention how solid this wrap it. It’s not marshmalloy or pillowy, but when doubled over it’s very nice on the shoulders. How does it feel on your shoulders? This was very nice and flat on my shoulders due to the thin nature. It was easily spread out or doubled over while wrapping. How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have? Milori does not have a lot of stretch, but I would assume with some more time to break in it might develop more stre...

Natibaby Argyle Blue

Brand Name: Natibaby Wrap Name: Marsupial Mamas Exclusive Argyle Blue Reviewed by: Sara Stobart Size of Wrap: 6 Fabric Content: 50% Cotton, 50% Hemp How long has this wrap been used by you? 3 weeks What size is the wrappee? 14 months, 29 in, 20lbs What is the thickness of this wrap? Thick! Does it have cush? Yes! Argyle is super cushy, bouncy, springy! It absorbed impact like shocks on a car. When it arrived to me it felt somewhat like a two by four in hand and I have to admit, I was quite hesitant to see its wrapping qualities. After a hot wash, tumble dry and steam iron, this baby softened up a great deal. While I still wouldn’t describe it as super moldable post-wash, it definitely relaxed enough to be deemed CUSHY! How does it feel on your shoulders? Incredibly supportive. Secure. Firm. How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have? Just a bit of stretch. How supportive did you...

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. DS napped in a double hammock tied at shoulder for a good hour, maybe longer, and that boy did not budge. I’m talking plastered to my back solid. And he’s a wiggly toddler. I think from now on I’ll just call the thicker weave the toddler-tamer. Seriously. I think with some breaking i...

Natibaby Rainbow Song with Linen

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. How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have? Little to no stretch for this wrap. How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry? Ruck carry was very easy to get into place with this wrap. My little is ...
