LO is coming up for 1 year old. We have been using the folding type with velcro wraps. At each stage she seems to grow out of the wraps way before reaching supposed weight for fit but next size is huge. The problem is that she is long & thin so waist is not on waist and cuts into her legs as too low. We have mainly used Bambino Mio and have found them v reliable. She has grown out of her medium Bambino Mios although only weighs 18lb. We now have some Junior Joy medium but they are so wide that the pad moves and she ends up leaking. I thought I would see if any of you had had the same problem before buying more wraps. Any advice? Anyone got any old ones going cheap we could try?

My dd is long and thin, and my favourite wraps are motherease airflows - they have 2 rows of poppers: 1 on the waist, and one on the legs, so you can adjust the fit really well. Ad dd has got more active, I found bambino mio wraps didn't do so well, and then dd got the hang of velcro, so I have given up on them. I have a couple of the bambino mio wraps in the large size you can have for the price of postage if you want to try them. I got my airflows by posting on the wanted thread. Little Kiwi wraps are also good on long thin babies, because they are much higher in the rise than other applix wraps I have tried.
