About this product

Product Description Because a baby's favorite place to be is snuggled up with mom or dad, the Baby Björn carrier allows parents to carry on with daily activities while keeping the baby close and content. An award-winning design, the carrier provides safe and snug head support for newborns as small as 8 lbs., and accommodates comfortably as the baby grows. Older children up to 22 lbs. can face forward while the seat height adjusts gradually. It's easy to put on and take off with side latches, buckle closure and all adjustments made in front. Wide padded shoulder straps distribute the weight evenly for comfort. Carrier provides privacy for nursing and easy-remove front allows parents to quietly put down sleeping baby. Not for biking or other sporting use. 100% cotton. Machine wash. Imported. Amazon.com While a tad more expensive than most other baby carriers, Baby Björn carriers offer parents some wonderful design features that make it well worth the extra money. By allowing you to hold your baby snugly against your chest, the carrier promotes a sense of comfort and closeness between a parent and a child. It also allows you to maintain eye contact with and talk to your little one during trips to the store, walks around the house, and short hikes (for both mom and dad). The carrier's other big advantage is that it frees up both your hands while you carry your infant. The black carrier consists of a large triangular front piece that supports baby's head and body, along with a set of thick padded straps that are worn like a shoulder-and-waist harness. Newborns and smaller babies should always ride rear-facing in the carrier, while older babies who can hold their heads upright unassisted can ride forward-facing and enjoy the view ahead of them. Made of machine-washable 100 percent cotton, the carrier can be easily adjusted from the front for your baby's size. Although the carrier has been tested for use with babies who weigh from 8 to 25 pounds, some parents found that the carrier became uncomfortable to wear and placed a lot of strain on the lower back when it was used to carry a child weighing more than 20 pounds. --Chris Burns From the Manufacturer Baby Bjorn Baby Carrier allows parents to keep the baby close and secure while at the market, doctor or any other place. It is a baby infant carrier which can be used right from the very first week. As long as the baby weighs 8 pounds and is 21" long, the Baby Bjorn Carrier may be used. The child carrier from Baby Bjorn holds the baby upright and features a strong back and neck support. It grows with baby thanks to an adjustable buckle which gives maximum comfort for all ages. The carrier is easy to put on and remove because all the adjustments are made in the front. Most parents love the unique Baby Bjorn feature which allows the button to be unbuttoned at the front of the carrier and lay down without waking up. As the child grows it allows for forward facing placement. See more
