Are all the commercially available Moby wraps double layered?
We are going to the Farmers Market tomorrow and I may get hubby to go to the great Maternity/Nursing store out near there to look at a few things. Nursing bra's being #1 priority and wraps second. I am really leaning towards Moby simply for the comfort and many ways to use it. And that I think I could get Jer to use it and not feel weird. Having pictures of manly man Paul help alot Sarah, so thanks for those!!!

Tammy it's on the list if we ever make it over there.
We went to Market and had breakfast in the drizzles, got the few things we were looking for and since Jer was being such a grump I had enough and asked to come home. May try again later. Or next weekend. He's still got this chest thing and it's making him way grumpy and a bear to live with.

Okay, I am wanting to get the stuff to make my Ka'tan soon. Ryanne, you said you made yours, did you have a pattern or just "figured it out". It doesnt look too hard, but can you point me down the right path as far as yardages goes? I was looking on the website and it has the main part then a "sash" right? What is the purpose of that part?
Erin, sorry I missed this! I just kinda figured it out based on the pictures and the sash basically helps hold the baby secure in certain positions.

Can someone help me with the side/hip tie with the Moby? I looked at the directions online, but I think it's missing a step. We're going to the zoo this weekend, and Jimmy doesn't like being in the stroller for long periods of time.

I looked on the Moby website, and can't seem to find what I am looking for, but I am looking at a Moby D secondhand, and I don't know what the difference is.
She's asking $40 and that seems like a lot...isn't that full price?

It also says it's shorter, which might not work for me. It's really nice though, it has a dragon print and it's a beautiful blue colour.

I know this is in the thread somewhere, but the Moby's one of the best for a newborn, right? I know, Sarah, that you're going to make me a Mai Tai ( - whenever I choose the fabric - and you need a new sewing machine, right) ... but which did you recommend for a newborn?
yeah...when or IF my sewing machine can get fixed. I will tell you that story in just a minute.....
I prefer the Moby....for newborns esp. It keeps them so snuggly and Jack loved it!!! I have tried slings, and hated them. The one biggie for me is back support...I have a bad back (from my first epidural being put in too high) so I have to have good support on my back.
ok...my machine right now. Well, hubby took it to the shop...on a saturday. The guy said he would get to it the next week and let us know. He didn't..we called back the next saturday and he said he didn't look at it yet. After another week he said he finally looked at it, and needed to find out if we wanted him to order the part (well DUH!!! WHY would we put it in if we didn't want it FIXED!!!!). So then he told us that would take 3-4 weeks to come in....so since he wasn't known for letting us know anything we didn't think much of him not calling for a month. Hubby called back....it seems that's the OLD owner of that store, and the new ones don't do my machine. They had taken over three days after this guy said he was ordering the part for us!!! So it sat there with NO ONE calling us to tell us this for nearly a month!!!! The new owners don't do my brand, and the closest shop is OKC, an hour and a half away. They won't ship it there because we have to have the original packaging and box...we have the original box, but not the cardboard from the inside of the box. SOoooo....now that's where we are. I told hubby if we can't get this figured out in the next two months then I am going to buy a new machine...this is ridiculous!!!

Kim, with the cost of our shipping it might not be that big a difference if you just buy it locally.
ETA- The shipping is roughly $65 within the US, so it's not that much of a difference.

The prices for ordering the Moby/Moby D in Canada are OUTRAGEOUS!! The cheapest I've seen is around $50 PLUS shipping!! 
- whenever I choose the fabric - and you need a new sewing machine, right) ... but which did you recommend for a newborn?
(it might be quicker!!! LOL) 
back to Babywearing ... LOL
I was hoping I could find it for a cheaper price here, but alas!!
