Baby Carriers - Look For One With Great Back Support
A big problem with most baby carriers is that they cause back and shoulder aches
. Therefore one of the most important aspects of any baby carrier is the amount of support it gives to both parents. In this respect the Baby Bjorn Active Carrier will not let you down. This baby carrier has excellent back and shoulder support even if you have back problems or a big baby. The lumbar support and cushioned double position strap system distributes the baby's weight evenly, away from shoulders.
The extra support features of the Baby Bjorn Active Carrier certainly add up to a very comfortable experience for the more active parent, the comfort of the baby has not been forgotten.
Another baby carrier that holds the baby close to mommy is the baby pouch. Similar to the baby sling, the pouch is made from a folded piece of cloth.
There are cheaper versions of carriers but few compare to the quality of the Baby Bjorn Active Carrier. The material is a breathable, machine-washable cotton and polyester blend that keeps everyone cool and comfortable.
The ends are fastened or sewn together, so that it is unnecessary to adjust the carrier. The pouch is easy to use, but needs to be properly fitted for a snug baby carry. It goes over one shoulder like the sling so your baby's weight is all on one side.
However, the long piece of fabric can sometimes be bulky to store, and can be intimidating to a new user. There is a learning curve in mastering the different ties which are possible with the wrap style carrier.
