Babywearing – Gypsy Mama Wrap

REAL MEN WEAR SLINGS!

Gypsy Mama Wrap

…go to Gypsy Mama Wrap Website

This wrap-style carrier can be tied in many different ways to create a comfortable way to carry your baby (or babies!).

Why it’s great:

  • Super comfortable since it’s over both shoulders
  • Can carry toddlers
  • Multiple positions to carry (sling-style for newborn, front facing in, front facing out, back carry)
  • Instructions come with several ways to tie it instead of just one traditional way
  • Comes in BEAUTIFUL and varied colors and styles (by far one of the most stylish wraps I’ve seen)
  • Pretty easy to breastfeed in
  • Also comes in water material for those days on the beach (or pool in Colorado!)

I am also a K’tan Retailer!

Here is one of my favorite slings.  Baby Ktan took the best of both worlds.  They combined the simplicity of a sling with the comfort of a wrap and created a great sling/wrap hybrid that anyone can use!

Why it’s great:

  • So easy to use!
  • MANY different carrying positions (newborn, twin, front carry facing in, front carry facing out, side carry, back carry, hip carry).  Every kind of carry position besides on your head!
  • Comes in gender-neutral colors so Dad will wear it
  • So comfortable because it rests on both shoulders
  • EXTREMELY easy to breastfeed in (as long as they’re not facing out or on your back of course)
  • Material can be pulled over baby’s eyes if it’s a sunny/rainy/windy day
  • Great material (stretchy, like a t-shirt)
  • Comes with a matching hat for baby

The baby’s here, now what?  Share your thoughts about one thing that surprised you about bringing the bundle home.

I think the thing that surprised me the most the first time around was the short-term incontinence (fun fun!) and how HUGE my breasts got when my milk came in!  Definitely do not buy your nursing bras until your milk comes in if you ever want them to fit.

Let us know what you think about POSTPARTUM!
