Sleepy-wrap Sleepy-wrap

At first this was a bit overwhelming for me (working out how to tie it) and my son (didn't like being tucked in tight as he was about 5 months). However, once we both got the hang of it it became a really convenient way to carry him around if the pushchair isn't convenient. I will definitely be using it from birth with the next one!

I tried many wrap slings and this was definitely the best. The fact that you can't tie it too tight made it much easier to use and you can easily take baby in and out as needed.
I used this from when my baby was two weeks old and still using it now at 8 months old.

My cousin sent me one of these as she runs a sling library that loans out slings to other mums. Ive used it two or three times when my DS is suffering from colicy griping pains, i once managed to bake brownies while he slept!
Im still not totally confident using this all the time and to be honest if he is ok then he doesnt really like being in it. I expect it will become more useful when hes older and can face outwards.

I wouldn't be without this wrap. My baby came home from hospital in it and we were out in it today at 20 weeks. When I put her in it she kicks her legs for joy to be up high and facing out and able to look at so much more than she can from her pram.

Once you learn the tie, you're off and away.

It does drag on the ground a bit while you're tying it but I can't think of anything else I don't like about it.

I also like the way the baby is held very close to your body with this kind of sling, unlike with a more structured carrier. I'm sure it's comforting for the baby to feel the warmth of your body and to swing along with you as you walk.

Really didn't get on with it. A shame, as I'd heard good things. DD hated it - too tight, and she always came out hot and sweaty. If I tied it looser, it just didn't work.

There are so many slings and wraps about I was completely baffled about which to buy. Happily this was given to us. The best thing for me is that my 7 week old DS sleeps happily in it leaving me free to get on with things. Its really comfortable and supportive to wear, so I feel very safe when we're out and about. I'm able to get on with things as both hands are free. We're both really happy with this wrap, I just need another one now for when this one's in the wash as I hate being without it!

Love this wrap - much more comfortable than BabyBjorn Active for me anyway. DD sleeps in this during day on me and walk to town and back to get exercise various times in a a week (4 mile round trip ) and no back pain at all. I keep it on most of the day and pop DD (6mths) in and out as needed.

I bought this for my second child and wished I'd got it for my first. It's very comfortable to wear and easy to tie. My son loved it from very early on and I've spent many happy hours with him in it while I've got on with housework, gone for walks etc. Very reasonably priced as well, definitely recommended.

I love this wrap, Its as comfy now with my tall 7 month old DS as it was when he was newborn. Excellent for rainy walks to school with a golf umbrella covering the 3 of us!

really good sling tried others including the baba sling but my back was suffering due to the one shoulder design. This spreads the weight evenly my daugter feels secure usually sleeps the whole time she is in it.
Much easier to put on than I thought it would be.

Ilove this wrap. used from 2 weeks old. My baby is now 17 weeks and 18lb and still using it. It is starting to get a bit awkward when he kicks his legs! My best baby buy!

I'm a bit of a wrap fanatic...I was lent a Kari Me when my daughter was only a few weeks old and about 6lb. She was very snug in it but I found I had to retie it each time she came in and out of it, which was a bit awkward.
I then borrowed a Hug-a-Bub, which I then ended up buying when my girl was about 3 months old. This was less stretchy, the fabric was less wide, and overall more supportive.
However, I found this started to "pull" on my shoulders when my daughter reached about 16lb, and so I moved onto a Sleepy Wrap. I wish I'd known about it from the beginning, as it's the perfect wrap for me! I don't have to keep retying it, it's stretchier, softer and doesn't pull on my shoulders. Not only that it's a little less expensive than the other 2 I've mentioned and comes in more colours.
My baby is now 9 months and although I have other types of carriers, the wrap is definitely the most comfy for both of us. There is a learning curve involved in tying it, but once you've got there, it's not tricky at all! And that's from someone who was probably the last little girl on the playground unable to tie her laces :-)

Bit tricky until you get the hang of how to tie it. Will fit both DH and me and it is made from nice plain fabric so DH doesn't feel he looks daft wearing it. Definitely the most comfortable and supportive sling I own, particularly good for longer periods of wear. Launders well.

Lovely comfortable material stretchy enough to ensure a close fit without bagging.
Very long in length and can be combersome to put on and take off, have stood on mine several times. The long length does mean it fits tall and large people.

Excellent product almost identical to the Kari-me but cheaper. The fabric is just a little less stretchy which is better because my friend has a Kari-me and finds that it gets stretchier when washed.
