Ergobaby Aura Stretchy Wrap, Coral Dots (SW38) Check Availability

Overview:

Stretchy wraps are a lovely cuddly option for babies in the first few months of life, a fab choice for easing that 'womb to world' transition. They're super-soft, and mould beautifully to support a tiny body.  Once you get the hang of them, they're quick to tie too.

The Ergobaby stretchy wrap is made of 100% rayon (viscose) - it's soft and feels cool to wear.

Most of our stretchy wraps have an equal amount of elasticity along the width and length (a 'two way stretchy'), but the Aura wrap has a just a little stretch along the length, and stretches more width-wise (we think of it as a 'one and a half way stretchy'!) .   

This means that you can use in in two ways: 

1. a standard 'pocket wrap cross carry' - pre-tied, with your baby added after the knot is secure, a three layer carry. This stretchy, as it has less stretch along the length, has a smaller window of tightness than a very stretchy two-way that will 'work' for your baby. 
2. a front wrap cross carry - partially positioned, then tightened and tied off around your baby. A one layer carry, with the option to spread fabric to make three layers. Less stretch along the length means that it can be used like a woven wrap in this way.
