Let me start off by saying "I LOVE MY BOBA"!
I have tried a couple different types of carriers from "expensive" to the ones you can purchase at Target or Wal-Mart. Needless to say none have been able to satisfiy my needs so I returned them all. You might be wondering "Well what is she looking for in a carrier"? These were a couple features I was looking for.
- Comfortable for both myself and lil' bam bam I mean he is sitting in it after all.
- Feature for a newborn baby
- Comfortable shoulder straps
- Some kind of pocket to put my keys
- Cool colors or prints
I don't think I was asking for much. I thought I would never find "THE ONE" carrier for us. Until I seen a Boba postings on Facebook and then checked out their site to see all the amazing features. Boba has generously sent us one to review. I couldn't be grateful and happy. I was jumping for joy, LITERALLY!
I chose the Pinstripes Special Edition Diaper Dude Boba Carrier. It's the newest addition to Boba Carrier collection and inspired by the Diaper Dude Bags.
Alright so lets talk about Boba Carrier
The Boba is a soft structured carrier, fitting babies from infant stage till 45 lbs. My son is 9 months and weights 19.10 lbs meaning I will be using this beautiful carrier for a long time. Not only that but will also be passed down for "future babies" how awesome is that?
Picture below you will see my husband carrying my son. Boba has this amazing removable sleeping hood, which is awesome because it prevents your baby from having a dangling head. Not only is is good as a sleeping hood but I've also used it as a sun protecter living in Texas you want to stay in the shade keeping cool.
The straps on the sleeping hood make it adjustable
You can unsnap the sleeping hood when its not being used
Then you'll roll it up and tuck in the cute pocket Boba provides in their carriers. So handy right??
The Boba has comfy shoulder straps that don't leave RED intension marks on your skin. The Boba is designed to fit parents of all shapes and sizes without having to purchase an extension belt. All the straps are fully adjustable and the elastic bands are provided so that you can tuck the strap in. As shown below in the pictures. Also the buckles that Boba uses for these carriers are high quality military grade.
Boba also has a super cool feature of the shoulder strap holder to keep your purse or diaper bag in place. All you have to do is unsnap the the holder place your purse strap on it and then snap it back down.
That's it !
How do you use it for an infant?
Boba has two snaps on the body of the carrier and two snaps on the waist part. You would then snap them together making it look like the pictures below. Making it smaller for your infant.
*Follow instructions on booklet to learn how to use the Boba for your newborn.
Remember, my list of things I wanted in a carrier?
One of them was a pocket somewhere to put my keys or phone. Well Boba has me covered they not only have one pouch but two pouches to put whatever I want so long as it fits.
Is that awesome or what ?
Overall:
I LOVE MY BOBA! Oh sorry I already said that !
Seriously though I could totally wear my Boba all day long and not be tired of it. My husband also wore it on our trip to the Navy Exchange and out in town. I asked him if he was tired or his shoulder hurt? He said "not at all, its very comfy. I can tell Ashton loves it" thats all I had to hear. YES! husband approved too. I believe that straps and waist cushion makes this carrier so comfy. The body of the Boba makes it to where you don't have to worry about your child slipping away. Its built snug you can wear your baby in the front or on your back, both ways are comfortable. The material is breathable and comfy as well. There is so many colors and prints to choose from aside their two new Special Edition prints. There is nothing I would change about this carrier I think its Perfect! its everything I was looking for in a carrier and then some. If you don't have a carrier and are looking to find "THE ONE" be sure to check out the BOBA. I recommend the Boba Carrier to all my fans, friends, family no doubt about it.
