Boba Bliss Hybrid Baby Carrier Newborn to Toddler - 2-in-1 Baby Wrap & Baby Carrier - Pre-Wrapped Baby Sling Wrap Newborn - Certified Hip-Healthy - Soft & Stretchy Baby Sling Carrier- 7-35 lbs (Black)

I love this thing. My baby has lived in it when we are out and about and sleeps so soundly. I love it. I’ve used boba baby carriers the last 11 years. I love the cross between the wrap and the belt carrier. I don’t think you’ll regret your purchase. I didn’t notice any smell? But I wash absolutely everything before I use it.It is also incredibly easy to nurse baby in it and to take baby in and out of it without having to unclip everything. I started carrying him in it when he was a newborn and he’s now 6 months and 20 pounds.In the picture it shows you can stretch the straps over your shoulders….but I never do that because then I can’t move my arms to do what I need to do. I’m sharing a couple photos.Anyways, play around with it when you get it. I like having it tighter up around my actual waist. The higher the better when they aren’t nursing. Ideally want to be able to kiss baby’s head.Just remember as a newborn you can’t spread baby’s legs into the frog position, so make sure baby is in her natural position before placing them in it. My baby is 1.5-2.5 months in all these. I don’t have many other photos. But, I use it all the time.The Boba carrier with straps is my other favorite one and use that one now for really long walks now that he’s heavier. That is only because I feel his weight pull more in my shoulders with this wrap carrier. With the Boba carrier I have the weight more in my back and less so in my shoulders. But I still use this when I’m not on a long walk because it’s so darn comfy and easy to nurse and have a sleeping baby in.

This was PERFECT for our 2nd little one. I purchased this for our second child, because I had a wrap for our first child and after moving around with the wrap it would become stretched out and my little guy just not feel secure. However this one total opposite! It provided just enough support for my back and stretch for our growing little boy. This one was also pretty light weight, and breathable which is very important for parent and baby. I loved the color, we got this color because if you plan to use it outside of home you want to be mindful of stains, and different things that can get on it. I loved that adjustable straps, for both the shoulders and waste area. This definitely increased the functionality because it allows the carrier to grow with baby but slim down with mommy if your weight starts to adjust. (Mine did but in the wrong direction. LOL) Last thing by baby did get a little warm in this sometimes, but I didn't mind because we're in the windy city so the heat was an added bonus outdoors. (I pray this helps! God Bless)

I don't know what it is about this carrier, but we just received it today and the baby has been asleep in it almost the entire day, even wake up when I needed to feed her. But glad she's getting her sleep! The other carriers she would startle to noises or be uncomfortable and wake upPros:*I like that there are buckles (I always found that the fabric slid out of the rings after awhile and therefore loosened)* the hybrid wrap/sling and carrier design is the most comfortable for me and the baby I've found. We've tried ergo baby carriers (best back support but bulky), light carriers (light as advertised but baby would cry when put in because was not the most comfortable for her), sling rings (loosened over time and put all the weight onto one shoulder killing my neck), sling carrier with buckle (didn't loosened like ring, but still neck pressure issue), wraps (crazy to put on and once the fabric rolls, it's over), wraps with preset fabric and buckles (baby like fabric but the wraps require an X design in the babies crotch like a rock climbing harness and she did not find that comfortable, would wake up crying until adjusted)*I love the sea mist green blue color*fabric is comfortable for me and her*with finessing you can carry baby in cradle hold*easy put baby in and take baby out*flexible movement allowimg you 2 hands! while keeping baby secure (traditional carriers are stiff and wraps and slings baby can slip out, so requiring you to use 1 hand to hold baby in place*hip supoort beltCons:*which there was a mesh fabric option (sometimes her head dips or she turns it into fabric and I wishI didn't have to worry so much if the fabric was covering her nose and breathing*buckles are not easily adjustable with one hand (a parenting must, one-handed parenting)*pockets, I wish it was an automatic think for carriers to have a pocket somewhere*the shoulder things I could not figure out to stay on my shoulders to give me that support

I love this carrier because it is a soft, gentle, stretchy material. My baby is so happy in here and often falls asleep quickly. My only gripe is after only 3 months the fabric is showing some fading and wear. I like this Boba because it gives the softness of the long wraps and features the ease of clips instead of the confusing tucks and folds. I switch this carrier out with the Tula carrier, which is sturdier but also not as gentle. Overall I am glad to have the boba!

10/10 this is my go to for my Velcro baby! We are 9 months and still use it!!! I highly recommend it, keeps him snug on mommy and always 25/8 instant naps for my baby. This is a ESSENTIAL anywhere we go! And great back support and I do not need assistance to put it on
