My Review
As the end of my pregnancy quickly approaches, It’s beginning to hit me that my husband and I will soon be outnumbered! No longer will be have to luxury of going out and each of us having one child each to make sure is behaving and not running off. Pretty soon we will have to up our game when we go to the grocery store, visit the lake or make a trip to a restaurant. I have also realized that my husband won’t always be there with me and I will inevitably have to leave the house with all three of the kids… on my own. The best way to ensure I can survive a trip out with the kids is to make sure my hands are free and what better way to do that than put the youngest in a carrier. The next step for me was to find a reliable carrier that was appropriate and fitting no matter where our adventures bring us. After doing a bit of research I cam across the Boba Carrier 4G and instantly fell in love with it! This carrier just seemed to be very light, easy to use and convenient to bring with you everywhere.
The shoulder straps provide great comfort and support, the best I have ever seen in any carrier similar to this one. There are multiple straps and adjustments, allowing you to fit it exactly to your preference. I had a really easy time adjusting the straps rather quickly when placing my son in the carrier, I was very impressed with that!
I really love how this carrier fits to my body and how snug my child is to me. I have tried so many carriers that were so difficult to get my child secure in all areas so that they aren’t leaning to far out or their head isn’t comfortable. The Boba Carrier 4G truly was uniquely designed to hug your child and I could not be more pleased with that.
The many storage options is another reason why I love this carrier, as it allows me to keep my hands free. I can store my cell phone, keys and some money inside of the carrier so I don’t have to bother with a bag. This really is everything you could ask for in a carrier, without being large and bulky. You can use just about everywhere you go and life is going to be significantly easier for me when I adventure with the three kids alone.
The first time I tried on the Boba 4G I was extremely nervous about it hurting my stomach because… well as you can see… I am nine months pregnant. However to my surprise there was so much comfort and support located in my upper body area that the lower strap didn’t apply any pressure to my stomach, it was simply there to hold the carrier securely in place. The first thing I noticed was how incredibly light my son felt when in the carrier, it was amazing! My son is a mama’s boy for sure and still loves for me to hold and snuggle him. At 34lbs he isn’t too difficult to carry for very short periods of time, but I have felt so bad lately that I can’t hold him for longer periods of time. I am shocked and so incredibly impressed that I am able to comfortably carry him in the Boba 4G while nine months pregnant and not feel any sort of discomfort. The fact that a nine month pregnant women can carry 34lb child in a carrier comfortably is quite impressive, in my opinion! What’s really great about this carrier is that I can use it with the new baby and my toddler (as it can carry up to 45lbs) which makes it well worth the investment! Overall I am very pleased with all of the features, quality and ease of using the Boba Carrier 4G and highly recommend it.
I love that you can use the Boba 12 different ways and with children up to 45 lbs! That’s lots of baby wearing fun~
