(17)
"Tula is very comfortable and fits me (size 20) comfortably."
"I love my Tula Free to Grow which I got on fb marketplace for $40"
"I love my Tula Explore! It still has a little room to go tighter... and it's comfy for me and baby!"
"A simpler ssc like a Tula, lark, or happy baby will fit better while being easier to put on."
"Tula!"
"Try baby Tula!"
"I use a Tula FTG when I hike with my 9 month old."
"Tula explore is probably the best if you really want to world face but you absolutely do not have to."
"I have heard good talks about Tula Explorer. Even from one of my favourite babywearing consultants."
