Stormy Houndstooth Wrap

Babywearing is one of the simplest ways to ease baby's transition from womb to world (and your transition from person to parent).

Your little one will hear and feel your familiar heartbeat and be soothed by your gentle motion as you go about your day. You'll be able to quickly learn and respond to baby cues. And you'll both benefit from increased oxytocin (the "love hormone") as you're snuggled up together.

Wearing baby can reduce crying by up to 43% (!!) and ease both gas and reflux. Some studies show babywearing mamas may experience reduced rates of postpartum depression and greater breastfeeding success.

But even without the science behind it, you'll know the moment you place baby into the wrap that there's something special about it. As they settle right in, you'll tilt your head down to inhale their delicious scent. You'll feel their chest rise and fall against yours. And you'll notice a sense calm wash over both of you, knowing you're right where you're meant to be.

Run errands sans stress, knowing baby will be content as you shop. Take your big kids to the playground, hands free to join in the fun. Or simply fold the laundy/send the emails/cook the meals, all without ever having to put baby down.

Why babywear? So you can feel more calm, more confident, and more connected to baby—and yourself—in that first whirlwind year together.

We recommend tying our double-knit wraps slightly more snugly than our single-layer wraps to achieve optimal support.

Your Solly Baby Wrap should be one of the most comfortable places for you and baby to be together. With a bit of practice, you'll be able to wrap baby in a minute or less and enjoy hours of hands-free comfort. To get started, watch our tutorials.
