Sleepy Wrap *GIVEAWAY* Day 6
8:57 PM Posted by Erin
Meet Sleepy Wrap...It all started five years ago when our daughter was born with a search for a healthier and more natural alternative to baby strollers. It didn’t feel right placing her flat on her back and away from the warmth and security of my body. My husband and I started exploring the option of carrying her in a sling. While the slings we tried held her close and made her happier and more peaceful, they just didn’t feel right on our shoulders and backs. We needed to find something to make both the carried and the carrier happy.
When our son was born, we encountered the wonderful world of baby wraps which distributed his weight across both shoulders and our whole back. They were much more comfortable. A woven wrap seemed too restrictive. The other stretchy baby wraps were great but they were difficult to tie so that they would fit just right as the material seemed to stretch out when we walked for a while. When we took our son out of the stretchy baby wrap the t-shirt material bagged out and we always had to retie it before placing him back inside. The search was on for the perfect material and we found it- more sturdy and durable than the cotton t-shirt material and with a touch of elasticity that bounced back. It conformed perfectly to our son's body, so we could wear him all day and take him in and out of it without needing to retie it, and it was so much easier to nurse in.
We created the best baby carrier for our children. Soon our neighbor wanted one. And then her friends wanted one. The compliments and positive reviews started pouring in. We figured that every family with a newborn would appreciate one and decided to make our baby wraps available to the public. The name for our baby carrier started popping up by itself when we kept seeing happy parents carrying their peacefully sleeping babies in our baby wraps.
And the "Sleepy Wrap" was born.

If it were for me I would choose purple but since I want to win it for a friend who's having a little boy, I'd have to go with dark green!

I'm not picky on color. I just believe in using these wraps. I went to the Web site - do they have a way to carry twins? I didn't see any twin info.
Thanks!
8/31/09, 2:29 PM
Since blue is my favorite color I would choose the Royal Blue. It looks so comfy to wear. saidera1 at gmail dot com

This would be an amazingly cute gift for the parents of the baby I am carrying (a surrogacy). :D
I'd choose Navy Blue for them.
Thank you! atraditionalsurro at comcast dot net
