stretchy wrap

Flexible wound dressing

A stretchy wrap is a long piece of elastic fabric used to carry an infant against the body.

The wrap winds around the wearer's torso in various configurations, creating a snug pouch for the baby.

Popular with new parents for hands-free carrying and promoting closeness: I lived in my stretchy wrap those first few months.
