FAQ

Boost milk production: Can help boost milk production because baby is right there, and can discreetly nurse. The Baby K’tan is two large loops of soft, stretchy fabric attached with a smaller loop, plus some carries require the included sash. If you find that the other types of wraps are just too much for you, or you find them too hard to get secure, this may be a great option. FAQ When can you use a Baby K’tan?

If you’re using a sewing machine, sew along the long edges of the fabric, leaving a 3/8″ seam allowance. If you’re not using a sewing machine, you can simply serge or zigzag the edges to finish them. It benefits the mother (shrinks uterus faster, lowers risk of breast, ovarian and endometrial cancers, promotes weight loss, lowers risk of osteoporosis, protects against anemia and release for mother hormonally causing calmer feelings) I jumped at the chance to try it out, because I’m really enjoying learning lots of different carriers. I was provided a Baby K’tan to try out so I could review it, and this review is entirely my own opinion.

Spoiler alert! The Baby K’tan is not my favorite, but it is still a great option. If it was all that I had, it would still work great. Baby Daniel is super secure, and I could go about my day doing chores while baby is nice and cozy. A sling, wrap or baby carrier takes up a lot less space than a stroller, no matter how small they fold up. Slings and wraps also usually fit comfortably in a diaper bag so it is always near if you need it. Both the MOBY Wrap and Baby K’tan have excellent quality carriers and you won’t go wrong with purchasing either one. If you are new to my blog or YouTube channel, you may notice that I always have a little one who is always in a wrap. Next, take two of the strips and tie them together in a knot. Then, do the same with the remaining two strips.

The MOBY Wrap Cotton Baby Carrier is a great alternative to the Baby K’tan Original Baby Carrier and probably one of its biggest competitors. Take the other loop and place baby’s other leg in it. The baby’s legs should be in a well-supported, ergonomic M-shape. He is plenty supported right now, but we are going to add an extra layer of support. Sizing is the most important aspect of getting a Baby K’tan. Be sure to read their sizing info here. For reference, I wear a size 20 or 22 so I got an XL. It’s a bit big, though, and I wish I’d gotten a Large. I have huge boobs, which may be what throws off my sizing. If I didn’t have 42G boobs, maybe I’d wear a 16 or 18 shirt/dress, which would put me in range of a Large Baby K’tan. You can wash your Baby K’tan to tighten it up a bit, but if it doesn’t fit well out of the box, return it for another size. When you put your baby in it, it should feel very snug, because the fabric is going to loosen up as you wear it. The looser it is, the harder it will be on your body to carry the weight and the less safe it becomes for your baby. Bottom Line Carrying your baby around on your chest can help create that strong bond between baby and his or her caregiver. Your baby is exposed to your voice, smell, and constant touch and feels loved and safe when moving around with you. 4.
