This pregnant lady is very happy. I was lucky enough that Baby K’tan sent me a
Black Breeze Baby K’tan carrier to try out (LINK)! We’ve still got about 4.5 months left
to bake our little one, so I can’t give you a full review yet, but wanted to
share my first impressions.
I’ve mentioned before that I have short little T-rex arms,
and couldn’t quite get the hang of wrapping the Pickle in a Moby. I would either need my husband’s help, or I
wouldn’t get it quite loose enough. As
such, I wasn’t as effective at it as I wanted to be.
What’s great about the K’Tan Breeze is that it’s easy to use
for even the wrap-challenged. It is
essentially two hoops hooked in the back.
I couldn’t get a good enough picture of this, so this is available on
Baby K’Tan’s website:
The two loops are crossed over your body and brought under
your arms. There are much more thorough
instructions on their website, and it can be used in a variety of positions as
baby grows. I’m really excited about
that, because it’s not limiting in its use like some carriers are. Much the same as how you can get wraps in
different sizes, the K’Tan has sizing that is appropriate based off of your
dress and bra sizes to ensure that it fits comfortably.
The Breeze is especially exciting to me since Little is due
in August – the Breeze is 50% mesh and 50% cotton, so it’s cooler and more
breathable if I want to take a walk around the neighborhood while
babywearing. We can essentially use this
from birth until toddlerhood, since it supports children from 8 to 35 lbs.
In short, I’m really, really excited to use this on
something other than a pregnant belly. There
are a bunch of colors available, and you can even purchase carriers gently-used
on their website. I’ve been coveting the
K’Tans since long before we were pregnant, so I’m pumped! Keep an eye out here in late August/early
September for a full report on how it works.
