I have been on the Sleep Wrap site and can't figure out the difference between the Newborn Hold and Love Your Baby Hold. Are they the same?

Newborns just kinda have their feet under them like a frog. When they get older you need to have their legs wrap around your waist for proper hip growth

No problem. They come in 3 different stages. newborn-3 months, which literally means right out of the womb. Our hospital issued us the exact gumdrop pacifier in an orange color. A bit off topic, also I'm not a Dr, lol. Worked very well for us. I believe it has won pacifier of the year twice in a row.

Well, it IS significantly different from the Moby Wrap, but it is not significantly different from the Ergo, in terms of the baby's position. I personally bought this because it is easier for me to manipulate, size, and adjust than the Ergo. A structured carrier really isn't comparable to a wrap. I do believe this carrier is a great one, and will be useful for a long time.

Well, it's not a traditional wrap that you wrap in different carries (like front cross carry, or a ruck carry). It has attached rings that you thread the fabric through and cinche up to have a nice secure fit. There are tutorials on line. As for the size. You can get different sz depending on your body sz and your preference. Ie I am 5'4" woman at 135lb. I prefer sz med Bc I like having a bit longer tail (extra fabric) to drape over baby if it is sunny or misting outside or some coverage for breastfeeding. I hope that helps and Happy babywearing!

I have this carrier. I did not use this particular one for my baby as a newborn. I had a smaller one I used for him. It is geared towards smaller babies. I used this carrier as he got older, around 6 months.

It's my understanding that this product is similar to the Ergo, but I don't have one of those do I can't say for sure. It's pretty different than the Moby Wrap, though. The baby sits differently and there are fewer options for using it. I find the Moby Go provides better (more comfortable) support for baby's legs than the wrap. What does your baby dislike about the other carriers?

The mattress pad for the bassinet is very thin, which is fine for a newborn. We never used the bassinet attached to the bed, instead we kept all four sides up and used it as a traditional bassinet just right next to the bed. I was always afraid I would toss some covers on my baby while I slept ( I get really hot and restless in the southern summer nigths down here). We also liked keeping it unattached from our bed so we could roll it around the house and use it for naps when he was a newborn. That way I could do laundry and he could be napping nearby.

They say you can use it with a newborn but I'm not sure the straps would get tight enough. My son was about 13 lbs when we purchased ours and I tightened the straps as much as possible and they were still a little loose. I would buy a snuzzler or use receiving blankets rolled up to place next to him/her. You can also purchase a car seat adapter through Baby Jogger for the City Mini. I've heard it's compatible with other infant seats - Graco, etc. You may also want to check out the City Select model. It's much more expensive but has an optional bassinet attachment which would be perfect for a newborn! They say you can use it with a newborn but I'm not sure the straps would get tight enough.

Hi Nathan,Sorry for the confusion here! It seems like this listing got merged with an old Sleepy Wrap listing somehow! The Boba Hoodie is a sweatshirt, not a wrap. It can be worn over a wrap or almost any other soft structured carrier out there. It is not a baby carrier, simply a cover to keep you and your child warm while babywearing. Please let me know if you have any other questions about this product and take care! Kind Regards, Leah Jeffries Boba Customer Service hi@boba.com

Hi Megan, we are using this system and it works great! We ate first time parents too. The bottle is very light weight and i am sure the baby could hold it easily. The shape is different than a regular bottle.

They measure about 13 inches long. I just put my thirsties duo wrap size 1 (the closest thing I have to a newborn cover) on the smallest setting and tried the alva in it, but it was a tad longer than the diaper cover was. They fit perfectly in the middle and biggest snap setting though. I got these when she was about 12 pounds, (depending on how big your newborn is,12lbs might not be that far away) and they have been my absolute favorite inserts for her. Super squishy and dont hold odors like the microfiber ones.

I think it's the same thing just different way of saying it...???Just FYI I do not recommend the infant adapter. I bought a $10 snuzzler and my 9lb baby fits just fine while the back is fully reclined. He LOVES it! :) The adapter is bulky and you cannot close the stroller. I prefer not to have the baby in the car seat longer than necessary anyhow. This stroller is amazing and we get so many compliments on it! So happy I decided to pay a little more for something we'll use for the next 5+ years. Good luck!!

To be honest, I looked at Tommy Tippee and never tried it. My daughter has been EBF since day one and did not have bottles. When we tried Advent, Dr. Brown, Medela and Playtex...she would not latch and just got angry. This is the ONLY bottle she will take. She is four months old. It has a real natural nipple that is wider. It also is a soft bottle, it can mimic "let down". I really like it for when my husband is feeding her while I am at appointments/away.

Thank you, curlygirl. As for leaving a toddler alone with a newborn, obviously not -- just taking every precaution necessary to prevent any mishaps ;) I appreciate your feedback on this sleeper as we decide what things to get for our baby on the way :)

I actually just used the swaddle wraps that they used at the hospital and bought some more wraps from buy buy baby. They worked for me but as they get older the swaddle sheet doesn't stay in place. I have read as well that those changing pad covers work so try that.

Don't know difference, but I love the one I got. I have used it as my son's crib for months.
