The Best Baby Carriers
Physical Therapist’s Tip: To support the development of your baby’s hips while baby-wearing, wear your baby facing inward and with legs in the “M” position until the age of 6 months.
Structured Carriers.
Structured baby carriers offer support for both your baby and you, with padded shoulder straps and a waist belt that distribute your baby’s weight evenly. These ergonomic designs help reduce strain on the wearer’s back and shoulders, making it comfortable for longer periods of use.
