I really, really want to try my hand at wearing LO in a wrap. He loves being worn in the Beco, so I think he'd like it. Just curious, where do you guys purchase your wraps from? The FB swap? Amazon? PAXbaby? Feeling conflicted on which direction to go!
-
I bought at a local store but only because I had store credit I had to use! Otherwise I'd buy off the swap I think. My money could've bought a nicer wrap there, rather than new.
-
I plan to buy from the swap when I figure out which wrap to buy.
-
@rahlyrah: I'm so torn on which kind to get. Right now I'm just drawn to anything pretty... haha.
-
@Pepper: Me too! I may make Grizz or Mrs. Twine choose for me
-
My Dad bought it for me from Risaroo.
-
I bought a girasol from Pinkletink. She has sales sometimes
-
I have gotten mine from a few different places, but I think getting one that's already broken in from the swap is your best bet. Breaking in a wrap isn't all that fun, and a lot of my frustrations when I started wrapping were due to the fact that my wrap wasn't soft and moldable yet. I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do!
@rahlyrah: haha! I would love to
Swap stalking is my fav late night hobby!

I bought one from amazon and one from another website (I can't think of the name right now). I found it from thebabywearer.com. That is a super useful website
-
@grizz: That makes sense re: the breaking in. I've been reading all the posts in Babywearing 102 for awhile now, but I'm waiting to be approved for the swap
@MamaBehr: I'll check that site out too, thanks!

I bought one from the swap and one straight from the weaver (Tekhni). I've bought several WCRS from the swap. I love it when they're already broken in and so soft, but they often smell funny to me.
-
@Weagle: I'm an obvious total newbie, but what is a WCRS?
-
@Pepper: A wrap conversion ring sling. I'm a big fan of ring slings.
-
@Weagle: Ah, gotcha. Thanks
@blackbird: @Arden: I found them on FB, thanks for the recs!
-
I bought from wovenwraps.com but at the time I didnt know much about swaps. I think I'd buy from a swap next time. Already soft and broken in!
