How do I Carry my Baby in the carrier?
This is as easy as carrying your baby facing you, but there are still a few things to consider. Put on your carrier by pulling the waist strap through the safety band and securing the buckle. Pull any excess webbing through the safety band to make adjusting easier.
If you try facing your baby forward and they get fussy, you can flip them back around for now and try facing outward in another couple of weeks or so. Because baby carrying can support your infant’s development and make your life easier, it’s a great option to explore.
Here are instructions to forward carry with the most common carrier styles. Use a method called the Kangaroo Carry. This style holds your baby facing outward in a pouch, similar to the way a mama kangaroo holds her joey. Thread your sling, and place it over your shoulder. Open the top rail of your sling to create a wide carry basket for your baby.
Most baby carriers are built to support babies weighing from 7 pounds to 40 pounds – the average weight babies reach when they are 4 years old or more. Therefore, most baby carriers can easily support a child who is more than 3.5 or 4 years old.
