What sets this apart from other wrap style carriers, you might ask? Well, the Bundleboo company prides themselves on their very nifty patented safety seat. According to the company's website the safety seat "features roomy and comfortable legs holes built into the center panel. We have blended this exclusive feature within the traditional wrap carrier design, adding security, simplicity of use, and peace of mind while learning to babywear. " Although I consider myself an experienced babywearer, I still found the safety seat to be a wonderful, useful, and important feature of this carrier. Back carries have always made me a little nervous, but the added stability of the safety seat really makes back carries so much easier.
Your Bundleboo wrap will come with a wonderful instruction video to help you maximize your use of the carrier. I thought I had seen just about every possible way to use a wrap carrier, and, honestly, I nearly skipped the video because I thought for sure it couldn't have anything to teach me. Boy was I wrong! I learned so many useful tips and tricks
from that video that really make babywearing that much easier.
Unlike a lot of the wraps out there, the Bundleboo is made of a 100% natural, woven, non-stretch fabric. This makes it perfect for carrying babies of ALL sizes. I thought I had to give up using wrap carriers once Levi hit about 20 pounds. My previous wrap carrier (a stretchy one) started to sag within 15 minutes of wearing him. Needless to say that became very uncomfortable, and I was forced to retire what had become my favorite method of babywearing. I was overjoyed when I put Levi in the Bundleboo and realized it kept him securely and comfortably in position for indefinite periods of time. You really can't beat a wrap carrier for coziness and comfort, and I am so glad to be able to use one once again.
The Bundleboo is not only safe and comfortable, it's also pretty dang cute. This carrier comes in an array of fabric choices. You can choose between a solid color or a carrier with a contrasting fabric panel like the ones shown in the pics on this post. Like I mentioned before, these carriers are made of a very high quality 100% cotton fabric. It is sturdy yet comfortable.

ReplyDeleteWell, I might just try a wrap with baby #2, if it's this kind. I watched a friend try to put on a wrap once, and I thought it looked too much like advanced origami. :)
