wearing toddler in a moby wrap

how do you carry toddlers in a moby wrap? The instructions only showyounger babies :/ connor is 16 months and 22 lb x

You dont really, the wrap is a stretchy type and doesnt really suit heavier toddlers. You need a woven type that doesnt stretch.

Though technically the stretchy wraps say you can carry heavier toddlers (my stretchy says it goes up to 35lbs), they really aren't comfortable for that long. They sag and require frequent readjusting and don't distribute the weight as easily. But you would carry a toddler in a stretchy in a hug hold the same way you would carry a baby.

If you want to BW with a wrap, I would go with a woven xx

Have you got any recommendations

We ditched the Moby at 16lbs, I can't imagine carrying LO in it now!

Definitely get yourself a woven! I've heard Indio's with Linen or Hemp are especially good for toddlers x
