Baby Front Carrier
by Carol J Pearson
If you have decided to get a baby carrier you need to choose
one suitable for your purpose. There are three main types of
Baby Carrier to choose from Front Carriers (baby in front of
you), Back Carriers (baby on your back) and Slings (baby
cradled in front). Some are very inexpensive and others
carry a designer label.
Before you buy a baby carrier try one on first. Without
trying one on, you can't actually get a feel for what is
going to work best for you, so ask other moms what they have
used, and what has worked for them. Once you get a great
review, ask if you can try it with your baby.
The front and back carriers leave babies in an upright
position, so may not be great for newborn infants, but they
are good when you are going through the food store and your
toddler decides he wants to grab at everything. It keeps
your baby secure and happy since they can't go anywhere, and
they leave your hands free. If decide on a front carrier,
look for one that you can change over to a backpack when
your child gets older, as most kids love the backpack until
the age 4 or 5. It also makes it fun and safe for
introducing your child to hiking, or any other activity
where a pram may not endure the terrain.
Baby slings are adept, and can be used for any age child.
Some convert for a sitting position to help you have your
arms free if that is your child's favourite method of being
carried. Slings are my personal favourite, but you do have
to tweak them a little to get them adjusted and to be
comfortable. The only downside I can think of with a sling
is that one hand needs to be available if an active baby
tries to make an escape.
Why are slings and carriers so popular? In addition to the
practical reasons of having your hands free, being next to
your baby increases bonding. It also soothes baby, and the
rhythm of moving with you is comforting to your child.
Being at eye level with you (such as when they are in a
backpack) gives the child or toddler a chance to see things
from a another perspective.
After you have bought a Baby Carrier you will want to get
used to it. Remember if you are unused to carrying your baby
for long periods it can be hard work! They are heavier than
you think. Be careful with your posture as many front
carriers will tend to pull your head forward. I believe a
great Baby Carrier will make your life so much better that
it will become an indispensable piece of your baby
equipment. - 15668
