Lovin’ the MetroWrap™

by

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure policy here.

MetroWrapOlivia (Janice’s 5 week old baby) is in love with her MetroWrap™ and if Sophia (my 3 week old baby) knew what she was missing, I think you’d hear some screaming.

Yes, Janice won the fistfight and laid claim to the MetroWrap™ we reviewed this summer. And it is proving to be the lifesaver that we thought it would be.

Olivia loves being snuggled tightly in the soft fabric and sleeping to the sound of her mommy’s heartbeat.

Janice keeps raving about how comfortable and easy to use the wrap is and how Olivia instantly relaxes and falls asleep as soon as she’s nestled inside. My jealousy peaked and I wrote to our friends at MetroMamma.

They graciously offered to save me from my jealousy and as well sponsor another giveaway to let another lucky “5 Minutes for Mom” reader enjoy one of these comfy, ultra-chic baby carriers for free.

Yes, we’re giving away another MetroWrap™ courtesy of MetroMamma™.

MetroWrapThe timing couldn’t be better. MetroMamma™ has just created two fabulous new designs. The news is so hot off the press that they haven’t even had time to put the new pictures up on their site. You’re seeing them first here!

The first new design shown above is “Fleur-de-lis” and the second is “Angel Wings”. The winner will have her choice of these two hot new looks.

We love that these elegant baby carriers were created by two moms. Carie McNeil and Leah Mamone worked together to invent a carrier that met all their needs. After using all the different styles of slings and wraps, they decided to create their own unique design and the MetroWrap™ was born.

We think their invention is brilliant and we’re convinced you’ll love it too.

If you’d like a chance to win yourself a MetroWrap™, simply leave a comment on this post.

We’ll draw the random winner on December 1st.(US shipping addresses only.)

The MetroWrap™ baby carrier is the perfect way to bond with your child, enjoy your freedom and look chic while doing it!

  4. I am a stepmom of 3 boys and a soon to be mom for the first time. As I am 40 with my first and probably only gift from God, I know this wrap will be a lifesaver for my busy life. Our family consists of 3 handsome boys ages 14, 12, and 5 and we have 3 furbabies ages 1, 3 and 5. As you can see, the metrowrap will indeed be a fabulous accessory to help me hold my little one close to me while attending to all the needs of all my other loves. Thank you for this opportunity.

  5. i have never tried one of these but would love to have one because my 11 week old baby is so colicky and I hear a minimum of 4 hours of crying everyday. When i hold her she cries less. But I can;t hold her all day because I also have a 3 year old. I think this product would work wonders.

  74. I would love to have one of these. I’m do soon with my 2nd and have a very active 2 yr old; this looks like it would be sooo helpful taking care of both of them! I used a sling with my first for a little while but it hurt my neck and back. The wrap looks like it would much more comfy!

  75. My 10 week old son has severe reflux, and the only way he is comfortable is to be slung or wrapped. We would love the MetroWrap to help get us through it!

  95. I’m a firm believer in baby-wearing. It’s been so great for my son and I, and my husband and son. My husband swore he’d never put on a sling, but he did. I think he’d love the cool angel print on the metrowrap even better.

    Reply

  105. This design is so unique! I’ve been looking at slings and carriers for my son (due in March) and haven’t come across one like this. I’d love to win the Angel Wings one!

  197. This is a fantastic product, reminiscent of the wraps that are used in cultures all over the world.
    I’d love to win this for my daughter!

  199. Decisions, Decisions, If I won this who would i give this to? My daughter or my neice, who are both pregnant. I guess it will just have to be whoever delivers 1st. Pick me! Pick me!!!

    Reply

  206. My son is very attached and very heavy. He is only 11 weeks old and already 13 lbs 13 oz. It is difficult for me to get things done trying to hold him with one arm. The fleur de lis design would be perfect since my husband and other son are super New Orleans Saint’s fans!

    Reply

  207. OMG, this is the most fabulous carrier I’ve seen! My daughter just had a baby 6 weeks before she was due and needless to say, that baby is kept very close. This wrap would sure be mighty handy!

    Reply

  229. I would love the fleur du lis to carry our new son while in Korea. My wife loves her ergo for our 2 yr old and I think I would really like this one. Its great to be a babywearing dad.

    Reply

  236. Please count me in for the wrap! My due date is Dec 20, but I think my little man might want to be here in person by Thanksgiving!!

    Reply

  240. I have been searching for a wrap that would go with all my clothes! It’s hard having two in diapers. Especialy at the grocery story. the little one wants to be held and the other one wants to run around but it’s hard to chase him down when i have my hands full!!

    Reply

  248. These look very cool and urban- much more appealing to my city-fied self than some of the more earthy slings I see out there!

    Reply

  251. I am pregnant with my fourth (other three children are 5, 3, and 2!) and so desperately will be needing this. Pick me!!

  255. I would love to win this Metrowrap for my daughter who’s baby will be born in February.Her choice would be the fleur-de-lis; this is her sorority’s emblem.Thanks for sharing . Baba

  258. This MetroWrap is really cool!
    I’d be the coolest kid in school,
    if Mommy had me wrapped up tight –
    Together we’d be quite a sight!
    The other kid’s would be so green –
    My mom and me – we’d cause a scene!
    The girls would wonder – who’s that kid?
    The boys would cry – they’d flip their lid!
    I’ll coo and nuzzle mommy’s breast –
    This MetroWrap – it IS the best!!

  321. I’m expecting #3 and could definitely use one of these to carry the munchkin in while trying to keep up with my other 2!

    Reply

  329. Oh, I would love to win one of these. I’ve been eying up some of the wrap style carriers, since I’ve had absolutely no luck with any of the other carriers I’ve tried (and I think I’ve tried a different type with each of my 5 kids!) A friend had one similar to this, and it looks so comfy! My baby isn’t due until March, but it never hurts to be prepared, right? 🙂 (Plus the drawing is the day before my birthday!!!)

    Reply

  330. This is lovely! My son LOVES to be snuggled, but he’s outgrown one carrier, and this looks more comfy than the other I have!

    🙂

    Reply

  331. I am thrilled that slings have come so far! I love wearing my kids, and enjoy even more, the opportunity to talk “slings” with other moms and moms-to-be. There’s nothing better for a conversation starter! I think I have converted many a mom 🙂

  402. I would LOVE this! I have 4 wraps – and haven’t fallen in love with one yet…I think this one looks like a winner!

    Reply

  403. I’ve always wanted to try one of these, but my daughter is 7 months old. Is she too big? The problem is she likes to be held just like a little newborn, but she’s not so little anymore. I usually end up with a sore back if we go somewhere because I’ll be carrying here while pushing an empty stroller!!

    Reply

  407. Oh wow.. that looks SOO much more comfortable than other wraps Ive seen.. and I LOVE the angel wings design 🙂 Really cute and not too printed which I dont like all the fluff. 🙂

    Reply

  410. I would so much love to have one of these. I’ve been trying different carriers and have yet to find one that “fits” with me and my baby. This looks like it would be the perfect one!

    Reply

  411. I would love to give one of these to my little sister, who’s pregnant with her second. The first is quite a handful, so I know she’d appreciate having two of them available when necessary.

    Reply

  412. I’d love to win! The angel wings are so cute, I’d like to enter the drawing for that one. The look so comfy. I’ve used a pouch carrier before, but as my daughter gets bigger, it gets harder and harder for me to carry her in it. Metrowrap looks like it would work really well without hurting my shoulders.
