Quick answer

Start with the wrap centered on your chest, pass the fabric hip-to-hip, cross at the back, and bring each tail over your shoulders to create a secure, deep seat for your newborn.

Why the Fawn Baby Wrap works for newborns

The Fawn Baby Wrap is made from a premium blend of Tencel and organic cotton, giving it the gentle stretch needed to mold around a tiny baby without sagging. The neutral fawn tone also hides spit-up better than lighter colors, which is handy during the early months.

Common tension mistake

New wrappers often pull the fabric too tight across the baby’s back, which can curl the spine. The wrap should be snug enough to support but loose enough to let you slip a finger between the baby and the fabric at the nape of the neck.

Step-by-step newborn wrap

  1. Center the wrap: Find the center marker and hold it against your chest. Bring both tails behind your back, cross them, and bring each tail over the opposite shoulder. Make sure the fabric is flat against your chest — no twists.
  2. Tie a secure knot: Cross the two tails at your lower back and tie a double knot at your waist or hip. The knot should be firm but not digging into your side. A knot at the hip is easier to reach for adjustments.
  3. Create the pocket: Gather the front panel between your chest and the knot to form a deep pouch. The top rail should sit at your collarbone. If the fabric is too high, you’ll have trouble seeing your baby’s face.
  4. Place your newborn: Hold your baby against your chest, legs tucked in a froggy position, and gently slide them into the pocket. Spread the fabric from knee to knee. Baby’s knees should be higher than their bottom — never let the legs dangle straight down.
  5. Tighten and check: Pull each tail to remove slack, starting from the shoulder and working down. Check that the fabric supports from knee pit to knee pit and that baby’s face is visible and clear. If you can’t easily kiss the top of baby’s head, the wrap is too loose.
