Facing-In Position - Baby Facing Toward You -
Until your child is able
to hold his or her head upright, this is the correct position. It affords
your baby lots of close physical contact and attention, while
leaving your hands free in this position. You can entertain and bond
with your newborn by talking, touching, playing or just making eye-
contact.
* How do you know if your baby is at the right height when worn in
the front? - You should be able to tilt forward slightly and kiss the top
of your child’s head.
*
Facing-Out Position - Baby Facing Away From You -
Once your
child is able to hold his or her head up, your baby is ready for a new
adventure. This position allows him or her to visually explore their
surroundings while maintaining close contact with you.
* When placing your baby in or taking them out of the carrier, sitting
down will make the procedure easier. Until you are familiar with the
placement of baby, it is also recommended to do so over a soft
surface.
* It is best to limit the use of your carrier to 10-20 minutes until you and
your baby are both completely comfortable in it together.
*
Backpack Position - Child Facing Forward -
When your little one can
fully sit up on his or her own, putting them on your back allows you to
carry the child comfortably for longer periods of time. In this position
your baby is free to check out what is going on around them and still
know that you are right there.
* Wearing the carrier closer to your body and higher up on your back
(or chest when worn in the front position) will minimize stress to your
back and shoulders from prolonged use.
