What woven wrap would you get as a gift? Update pg 3.

Ahhh OK, just wasnt' sure which way round you meant - so you agree with the other lady I was reading about! That makes me doubly glad I have got the woven now if it becomes too hot to wear the stretchy some days! Mine is a Liberty sling (as is in the UK, sold under a different name here but with that tag on it :giggle:

) I had to say what length I wanted and I wrote and said I wasn't sure and said my size etc. I didn't get a reply, just the sling so hope it is OK :giggle:

I wasn't very pregnant when I tried it on (fatter though I guess :hohoho:

)

Definitely stretchy is hotter - in the way a 100% cotton top is cooler than one of the same weight with polyester etc in it.

There are also many more ways of wrapping with a woven and some with fewer passes (layers) over you and baby, which will be cooler.

Just remember to think of the wrap as a clothing layer for both of you, so wear less IYSWIM?

You know what it is like here though when very hot, all you can manage is the thinnest of singlets :giggle:

I'll just have to accept there will be days I can't wear him! But yes I'll try to remember that - thanks!

Yes, I love it! Don't see much talk of Vatanai these days, but ours is definitely Permastash! So soft, but supportive and I love the generous length.

That is good to hear if I decide I need one later @Mumof5 :giggle:
