The Solly Baby Loop Carrier is the perfect way to transition from the Solly Wrap as your baby grows. It's designed for babes weighing 15 to 45 pounds, allowing you to continue babywearing even when they grow out of the Wrap.
The Loop: Supportive and Comfortable
The Loop is inspired by the short front cross carrying style and combines the ease of a sling and the support of a wrap. With its sewn-in ring design, it's easy to adjust as needed. The woven design offers additional support, and the 100% organic cotton material is soft and breathable. This healthy hip certified product helps to promote bonding, prosocial behavior and developing vestibular and proprioceptive senses.
Using The Loop Carrier
It's just as easy as learning how to use a Solly Wrap. In fact, if you're already a baby wrap user, you should have no trouble at all adapting to the Solly Loop. Many of the steps are similar, but the Loop Carrier incorporates a ring in the back that you'll thread the material through. This helps to create a snug, adjustable fit that keeps you and baby comfortable.

When you're wearing your wrap, don't forget the T.I.C.K.S

Your wrap should be tight enough to hug baby close for optimal comfort and support. Any slack or loose fabric will allow baby to slump down in the wrap which can hinder their breathing and pull on your back.
You should always be able to see your baby’s face by simply glancing down. The fabric of the wrap should not close around them so you have to open it to check on them. In a cradle position, baby should face upward and not be turned in toward your body.
Baby’s head should be as close to your chin as is comfortable. By tipping your head forward you should be able to kiss your baby on the head or forehead.
Baby should never be curled so their chin is forced onto their chest as this can restrict their breathing. Ensure there is always a space of at least a finger width under baby’s chin.
In an upright carry, baby should be held comfortably close to the wearer, so their back is supported in its natural position and their tummy and chest are against you. If the wrap is too loose they can slump which can partially close their airway.
