Celebrity Baby Blog’s Danielle first introduced me to wraps when my daughter was already 6-months. I was an immediate convert and fell in love with the Moby Wrap. Yes it is a bit difficult to figure out how to tie it at first, but once you have done it a few times you become an expert at it. Also, since the wrap is stretchy and has a slight give, you can keep it tied all day long and pop baby in and out of it.
The Moby Wrap is currently available is 10 vibrant colors - black, navy, forest, indigo, red, moss, natural, lilac, sienna and chocolate. They also recently released the Moby D, a high-end wrap with a center panel that is made from fleece, handwoven cotton or Asian brocade.
The very first Moby exercise DVD that is a collaboration with yogi Anna Getty was also recently released. Moby is represented in a section on doing yoga with your baby.
Brooke Shields is a fan of the Moby Wrap and has been quoted as saying that “the Moby Wrap is perfect and so comfortable. Rowan loves it and Mom’s back is not as twisted.” She was also photographed in In Touch magazine wearing Grier in a natural Moby Wrap.
If you are new to babywearing or if you are considering adding another carrier to your collection, you can find out more about the Moby Wrap at mobywrap.com.

OK. Great…but what exactly is a ‘wrap’ as it’s being used in this context? I can’t seem to figure it out and want to leave your blog as it looks pretty cool. Background info for us mere mortals would rock! :)

Hi Richard,
A wrap is a long piece of fabric that you literally wrap around your body in order to be able to carry your baby hands-free (you form a little carrier when you tie it). There are a bunch of different ways to tie it, depending on what position you want to carry your baby in. A good site to learn about babywearing from is thebabywearer.com.
Hope this helps!
