Can I get a 🙌🏼 for all the baby-wearing mommies and daddies?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are some tips for proper hip positioning, especially if you plan to face baby forward:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👇🏼 Babies should only face forward in a carrier once they are older- around 8 months or so- and it should only be done for short periods of time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👶🏼 Their legs should be even with their hips and mimic a sitting position, not hanging straight down.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⭐️ Infants can also become overstimulated when facing forward, so turn them back facing you if you’ll be wearing them for an extended period of time/if they fall asleep.
