How to Choose a Baby Carrier:
Consider Your Physical Needs
- Decide who will be using the carrier most frequently. The type of carrier you choose will depend on what type of activities you plan on doing while carrying your baby and how much weight you can lift with ease. Men often find it easier to use outward-facing frontpacks or backpacks while many mothers prefer slings or inward-facing frontpacks for their ease in and out of the house
- Choose a comfortable carrier. No matter what type of carrier you select, try to take it for a test run around the store--either with your baby or with a facsimile (doll). The baby carrier's cloth should be soft and non-chafing, the framework should be light enough to carry easily and the straps and baby seat should be padded
- Select a carrier that will accommodate your infant's growth, both in it's ability to carry additional weight and in its ability to adjust to new positions. Slings tend to be very flexible and accommodating, but other baby carriers typically have a upper weight limit and may not adjust to allow for a baby who can sit up or hold up her head
- Check the US Consumer Product Safety Commission's website for recall information before making a final decision (see Resources below). The agency keeps an updated list of all baby product recalls and the reasons for them
Select the Type of Carrier
- Consider a baby sling if you have a premature infant and/or are breastfeeding. The sling is the most ancient form of a baby carrier. It allows a baby to be cuddled close to your body in a variety of different positions, provides privacy for public feedings and can be adjusted to fit even the smallest of babies. A premature infant can benefit greatly from the way a sling swaddles tightly, moves with the rhythm of your body and gives her a chance to be soother by the sound of your heartbeat
- Choose a frontpack for your older baby. Though this type of carrier can be used to hold small babies, it's best suited to for an infant who can hold his head up independently. A frontpack also gives a baby a variety of different views of the world. He can be turned inward toward your chest while sleeping or fussy or face the world head-on when you carry him with his back to your belly
- Invest in a backpack carrier if your family is active and outdoorsy. The carriers are designed for babies who can sit up without assistance. They have a lightweight, tubular framework with a fabric seat in which your baby can sit upon your shoulders. Many backpack carriers are designed to be used for hikes and have small storage spaces for snacks and other baby supplies
How to Use an Infantino Baby Carrier:
Buckle Type Carriers
- Unbuckle the support belt and place the carrier so that the pattern part is facing toward your body. Snap the buckle at your waist. Adjust the fitting for comfort, and tighten the straps by pulling the webbing. Adjust buckle-type carriers so that the shoulder straps are close to the top
- Lift your baby, face him toward you and place him at your waist. Some models allow the baby to face away from the parent, but the company suggests waiting until babies can support their own heads
- Slip the baby's legs through the leg straps in the carrier. Secure the shoulder straps with one arm, holding the baby in place while the other arm slips into the strap. Repeat with the other arm
- Snap the shoulder straps together in the back around your neck. Adjust the straps by pulling the webbing. To pull your baby closer to your body, pull the straps near the buckles. Pull all of the straps tight
Tying Type Carriers
- Untie the belt if it is tied and hold up the carrier so that the panel faces your body. Tie the belt at your waist, or have someone else tie it. Double knot the belt to prevent it from opening
- Pick up your baby and face her toward you. Allow your baby to wrap her legs around your waist
- Hold your baby securely in one hand, or have someone else support him, and pull the carrier up so the baby's legs are on the outside and his body is covered by the sash with the shoulder straps over both the baby's shoulders and your shoulders
- Have someone cross the shoulder straps in the back so that they goes over the baby and parent's shoulder and down the parent's back on the opposite side. Wrap the straps around the parent's back to the front and slide it through the loops. Pull the straps tight so that the baby is snug against the body and double knot the straps in the middle of the loops, which end up in the middle of the baby's back. Make sure all knots and straps are tight before letting go of the baby
