Can the moby be used in a hip carry?

[Dana Joy]

My baby is getting bigger and I love my moby- :tu I am thinking it might be easier sometimes to hip carry him. Do I need to buy a sling or can the moby be modified?

I believe so, though I haven't tried it myself since I don't have a wrap... I found a picture of it on this page... http://www.peppermint.com/UBWcarry.htm

Thanks for the link, Elizabeth. I have a MOBY somewhere! Hopefully I'll unpack it before dd gets too big to wear. I think we would like the hip carry. She sinks too low with the front carry now. It's hard to walk when she's hanging down around my knees! :startled

I love all the info!

I carry my daughter in the hip carry with our Didymos all the time. I actually really like it. I feel like I get support through my hips as well as accross my shoulders. Nice for bigger/heavier babes. In my avatar that I use at TBW you can see DD in the hip carry position.
