A complete description of the baby carrier, how to put on the baby carrier, details of the design of this carrier, as well as important points that parents should consider when carrying a child in this carrier.

Another detailed video from Nina Zaichenko to the budget sling backpack of the Comfort series. This backpack has been designed to be worn by children from 6 months to 2 - 2.5 years. It has a shorter wearing period than the Lux series ergo backpack, but it is just as comfortable and made of quality materials. This carry takes less time to complete and is easier to sew due to its design, so this ergo backpack cheap. In comfort for mom and baby, he is not inferior well-known brands of ergo-backpacks.

This video instruction was prepared by sling consultant Irina Suprunova. Backpacks TM TeddySling are made with different shoulder straps. Irina will tell and show in detail how to carry baby on hip in carrying with each type of backpack straps separately. Our ergo backpacks are made with anatomical straps, straight universal and wide.

Inserts for newborns in an ergo-backpack they create an incorrect position for the baby, and it is also very hot in them for both mother and baby. If you wrap the baby in a pillow and press it to yourself, then there will be something similar. That's why our company came up with a sling that only improves the position of the child and adds another way to fasten the straps to the backpack. Sling consultant Irina Suprunova will tell and show you the main advantages of this device.

The baby carrier should be adjustable in size and grow with the baby. This is the main factor of the TeddySling trademark. We don't want parents to keep buying new carrier sizes and worried about the growth of the baby. Now every second manufacturer has also begun to write about their ergo backpacks, that they grow with the baby, etc. We ask you to be careful when choosing a carrier and not to simply believe what is written. Watch video reviews about slings, read real reviews, ask the seller to show and tell how the carrying is regulated. Mom blogger will show by her example how in one backpack you can position the child correctly at 4 months and at 3 years.

Look at the photo below

In all these photographs, children are positioned incorrectly in ergonomic backpacks, there is NO physiological position HERE.

Why? Maybe the backpacks are bad, of poor quality? No, backpacks are quite normal. Of course, some of them are more successful, some less so, but in all these backpacks it is POSSIBLE to place the child in a safe and physiologically correct position.

So why do we see such a picture? Because we, the parents, place the child in an ergonomic backpack. And it can very well be done wrong.

I constantly hear a similar phrase: “Take an ergo backpack, everything is so simple there, fastex fastened and went.”

It is not true. You need to be able to use a backpack, you need to LEARN how to use a backpack. Otherwise, it is very likely that you will wear as in the photos above. I am sure that many will not even see where the mistakes are, and they are egregious and potentially affecting the health of babies carried in this way.

Video instructions:

Another wonderful phrase of "advisers": "Here you are 4 months old and you can wear it in an ergo."

It is not true. Here, you, mothers, let's say at the age of 25, all of the same height, size, weight and physical fitness? No. And why then should we mean that all our children, as soon as they are 4 months old, become the same size, suitable for any ergo, and all together in one day become one step in their development? WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT. AND BABIES ARE ALL DIFFERENT. And this is good! Therefore, focus not on ephemeral age limits, but on skills and development his child.

What does the Slingoliga Uniform Instruction say about this?

I quote: “It is allowed to carry in an ergonomic backpack from the age when the child confidently holds his head and, in the prone position on his stomach, can rise with support on his forearms. As a rule, this is the age of 4 months. At this age, it is allowed to wear belly to belly.

Decoding: If your child already has the above skills and you picked up the perfect size ergo backpack for him, and you, for some personal reasons, do not want or cannot carry a child in more suitable options for his age - a sling with rings, a sling scarf, a May sling, you may well start using an ergonomic backpack. Again. IF YOU CHOOSE A BACKPACK SUITABLE FOR YOUR CHILD. In the case of backpacks with a back that is not adjustable in width and height - read tried on, because. if it is not regulated, then you will not determine this moment in absentia.

Understand - you can carry in an ergonomic backpack even from birth. Only such a backpack should then be sewn according to the individual measurements of your newborn, taking into account his measurements at the moment. You can order such a backpack and the child will be in it in a wonderful and safe position. In about a month, this backpack will be small for the child.

Think about it: the manufacturer indicates the age range for their backpacks - 4 months - 2 years. At the same time, the back is NOT ADJUSTABLE in width and height. Here's how, by what a miracle, this backpack will equally fit your child in itself at 4, at 6 months, a year? Yes, in some one or two months from this time period (in which one, we cannot know, because all children are different) this backpack will be just right for your baby, that's for sure. What about the rest of the time?

Why such restrictions? Because the ergo-backpack of all physiologically safe types of carriers is the least adaptable to the child. When your child already knows how to sit, his spine is developed and strengthened so much that if you pick up a backpack that is not very suitable in size and somehow stuff the child there, you will not be able to do much harm.

The ergonomic backpack is a wonderful carry. Comfortable, easy to use, load-bearing. But she ALSO SHOULD BE ABLE TO USE, LIKE A SLING. To be able to sag the ass, round the back, spread the legs to a comfortable angle, and not "widely, so that the child hugs you with his legs." Choose a backpack that fits your child in size, preferably with an adjustable back, if the back is not adjustable, it is VERY DESIRABLE to measure before buying.

Remember that the seller who writes that this non-adjustable backpack can be worn exactly from 4 months does not bear any responsibility for the health of your child, he just wants to sell more of his backpacks. If you misplace your child in a backpack, again, no one but you is responsible for possible problems in the future.

Someone reading this will probably say or think, “But I wore mine like that, and nothing, a healthy child.” I'm glad you're lucky. This is not the case for everyone, there are cases when children had problems, for example, with the hip joint, from neglect of this issue.

To do something right, you need to learn. To wear in an ergo correctly, you need to learn. Learning how to wear will take a very small part of your precious time and most likely will not cost you anything. I think you will agree that your own child is worth the little effort.

And finally, a photo of how it should look, good luck to everyone, I'm going to sleep

Every day, the market for goods for babies is becoming richer and more extensive. Manufacturers are trying to create as many new products as possible that can make life easier for young mothers and fathers, as well as their crumbs. One of the most useful and necessary among them is an ergo backpack.

On sale you can find many models that are intended for children of different ages and genders, as well as for different seasons. Today, even special products are made in which twins can be worn. It is convenient that the hands remain completely free. And the kids are located on the sides of mom or dad, clasping his legs.

It is very important to choose the right backpack for your child, as well as to use it wisely.

Is an ergonomic backpack suitable for newborns?

Recently, many parents prefer a sling backpack, not a kangaroo. And this is easy to explain, because it is more convenient and takes into account all the physiological characteristics of the baby.

Often in the description of goods, especially imported ones, you can see that they are suitable even for newborn babies. But experienced doctors do not agree with this point of view. Indeed, in this case, manufacturers are more likely to use the lack of state standards for backpacks and carriers for children. Therefore, do not trust these dubious records too much.

An ergonomic backpack can even be dangerous for a newborn for the following reasons:

• There is no necessary support for the spine. The shape of the product is always fixed by the manufacturer. It is impossible to change it. For a newborn baby, it is always too large. Due to the size of the straps sewn into the middle of the back of the model, which is too large for him, the upper and lower sections of the spine are not fixed enough, which can lead to serious problems in the future.
• Too much work for mom. For a woman in the postpartum period, doctors recommend avoiding excessive pressure on (follow the link, exercises that will help strengthen the pelvic floor are very useful for women). When carrying a newborn in the backpack under discussion, many mothers complain of increased discharge, the appearance of discomfort and pain in the lower abdomen, as well as hemorrhoids.
• The appearance of lumbar deflection in the crumbs ahead of time. The formation of the lumbar deflection should begin during the period when the child learns to sit. Because of the sling backpack, this process can begin earlier, as mothers for a newborn baby have to tighten the slings harder.
• Excessive breeding of the legs, which is affected by the width of the back of the product set by the manufacturer.

In baby goods stores today you can find special versions of the discussed backpacks, which are equipped with special inserts for wearing newborns. But they only create additional inconvenience for both the girl and the baby.

If you prefer an ergo backpack instead, then you should carefully study the basic techniques for carrying a baby.

From what month can a child be carried in an ergo-backpack?

You can start using any sling backpack no earlier than 4 months. This is the minimum age for those cases when the mother is critically unable to cope with the baby, and she does not have the opportunity to carry him in any other way. If there is no such need, then it is better to wait until the time when the child begins to sit on his own. This is an average of 6-8 months. Just at this time, its weight reaches about 7 kilograms, and its height exceeds 65 centimeters.

Use cases - 3 positions

The ergo backpack is an indispensable thing for the parents of the baby, it allows you to travel or do household chores, while not burdening your back much. An ergo-backpack, unlike other similar devices, allows the baby to be in the correct physiological position. There are three main options for using the discussed backpack, which you will learn about below.

The first one is face to face

In this case, the child sits in a backpack in such a way that he is face to face with mom or dad. It is very important in this case to use an insert for the neck. Otherwise, the baby will quickly get tired and feel uncomfortable. After all, he will not be able to lean his head on his mother, he will have free space behind him. Such inserts, as a rule, come with the product.

It is especially good because the smallest children in this case will not be scared and look for their mother. The baby will be able to look at the parents all the time. And it will be easier for mom or dad to follow his mood.

The second is facing forward

In this position, the baby is located back and head towards the mother, and facing forward. Its main advantage lies in the fact that the child can look ahead and explore the world around him. In this case, he will not be bored sitting in a sling backpack. In addition, if his back or head gets tired, he can always lean on his mother or just snuggle up to her if he gets bored.

The third is on the back

The child is placed behind the back of the mother. The sling backpack is put on just like a regular backpack. The baby is located with his back to his mother. He can turn his head in one direction or the other and hug his mother.

This is the least convenient way, but it is relevant for those cases when a woman’s hands are busy shopping or other things. Tips from an orthopedist on choosing the right position for a child in a backpack by month.

So that being in a sling backpack does not harm the baby, you should heed the advice of an experienced orthopedist in this regard. As mentioned above, an ergonomic backpack should be used from 4 months. If the parents decide to start this process earlier, then the child must be in it in a horizontal lying position. If we talk about weight, then up to about 6 kilograms. This will prevent the baby from possible problems with the spine in the future.

As soon as the baby is 4 months old, and he gains the indicated weight, you can begin to accustom him to a new position - vertical. It is best to have it facing mom or dad. This will ensure better visual and physical contact. This position is recommended up to 6 months (approximately up to 15 kilograms).

In addition, from three months it is allowed to transport a child in a special backpack slightly to the side, but also facing mom or dad.

After six months, you should start transplanting the baby in a backpack facing forward. This will allow him to begin to actively get acquainted with the world around him and study it. The last third position behind the back of the mother is recommended only from 6 months.

What is the difference between a kangaroo backpack and an ergo backpack?

Some parents believe that there is no difference between them. Actually it is not so. They just have similar designs.

The main difference can be called the safety of the child. Unlike a kangaroo in a sling backpack, the legs of the crumbs are divorced and slightly raised. The knees are raised higher, and the butt is lowered. This is just the orthopedically correct position recommended by specialists for a small child.

In addition, in the backpack under discussion, the child is firmly pressed against mom or dad, so his weight is distributed correctly and evenly. A dense soft belt and wide straps allow you not to shift the center of gravity and carry the baby with ease. Mom will probably be able to take a long walk.

But in the kangaroo, the baby's legs hang down strongly, the knees are located on the same line with the booty or below it. The entire weight of the child falls on the perineum and buttocks. This is unacceptable for crumbs who are not yet able to sit confidently on their own. This can be painful and uncomfortable for both children and adults.

How to choose a good "sling-backpack"?

A good sling backpack must be equipped with a thick, wide belt made of high-quality fabric. He will take on the bulk of the load, correctly distributing the weight of the crumbs on the waist and hips of mom or dad.

With the onset of cold weather, parents face the question of how to walk in winter using an ergo backpack. Let's start with the fact that winter is not a reason to sit at home waiting for warmer weather. Daily walks are necessary for the health and hardening of the baby, and no one is safe from trips and trips on business. Ergo backpacks are a necessary attribute of winter walks. In winter, slings are worn under outerwear - with children under one year old (or rather, with non-walking or little walking children) and over outerwear (with children after a year, more active "walkers")

Children under one year old, as a rule, are worn under clothes - babies sleep most of the time on a walk, so there is no need to get the baby out of the sling, and you can feed on the go with the right clothes.

In this case, you need to choose the right wardrobe. When worn under clothing, there is no need to thoroughly insulate yourself and the child. Fleece overalls with elongated legs, which makes it possible to spread the legs correctly and widely - what you need for such walks. Nothing else can be worn over the fleece overalls - the warmth coming from the mother will always warm the baby.

Now slingo jackets have actively entered the wardrobe of mothers. Gone are the days when moms had to wear husband's jackets or women's jackets several sizes larger. Modern sling jackets, as a rule, are universal - these are 3:1 jackets. A special insert allows them to be worn by both pregnant women and women with a child under the jacket, and then in ordinary life - with the insert unfastened. Thus, the jacket can be worn for several seasons, not just one year.

Now there are many convenient additions to the winter wardrobe of mom and baby - slings, shoe covers, double slings, as well as sling coats, sling ponchos, sling inserts - there is plenty to choose from even the most picky fashionistas.

Children after a year are usually worn over clothes - it is already uncomfortable to wear under a jacket, the baby's legs are torn from under mother's clothes! In addition, after a year, children begin to walk actively, it is already difficult for them to sit on their mother's arms, but to bring the child to the playground, clinic, developing studio, especially when time is running out and there is no way to go slowly, adjusting to the steps of the baby - this is still relevant, because children quickly get tired and ask to be “handled”.

In this case, we dress the child warmly, like an adult, in winter overalls, preferably with elongated pants (slingo overalls), so that the baby’s legs are not open to cold and frost.

MYTHS ABOUT CARRYING IN AN ERGONOMIC BACKPACK

MYTHS ABOUT CARRYING IN AN ERGONOMIC BACKPACK…

1. The child will "get used" to the hands, and then it will not be weaned ...

Here you need to understand that carrying a baby in his arms is his natural physiological need. The baby comes to a new world, but the bond with the mother is still strong in the first months of his life. He adapts to this new world also with the help of his mother in various ways. For example, through the sucking instinct, as you and I know that children ask for breasts not only in order to get enough ... But also through the constant presence of their mother and her warmth. In the arms of the mother, the child feels protected and learns the world around him. This is very important for the full harmonious development. From ancient times, women carried a child with them - they tied it with a cloth to their backs, for example, as African women did. In Asian countries, a child is worn when using mei-tai (a piece of fabric with four straps. Two straps are tied on the mother's belt, two crosswise on her back. It turns out a pocket for the baby). Have you ever thought about where the expression “brought it in the hem” came from? Women in Russia wore a wide and long apron, which was worn over a skirt. The ends of the apron were tied around the neck. A child was placed in the resulting pocket. I think there are many examples. And note, despite the fact that mothers used to constantly carry the baby with them, the so-called “problem” of “getting used to hands” did not exist. The child is with the mother, and the mother performs the functions assigned to her by nature.

Another thing is that the child really gets used to the most ergonomic backpack as a means of carrying. And landing in an ergonomic backpack turns into a natural process for him. The same as dressing, changing a diaper, walking and other aspects in his life. I am writing this as a mother of two sons. I have been carrying my youngest son in an ergonomic backpack since he was more than 3 months old. Now he is 8 and I can see from his reaction that he is already interested in where we are going, he understands that we are going for a walk. He is not used to the hands, because I do not wear it on my hands, but in an ergonomic backpack. He is used to the fact that in an ergonomic backpack you can do everything that you can do without it: play, eat, sleep, walk.

2. For my mother’s back, this is a very big load, and it’s hard ...

To this statement, I always want to ask two questions: 1. Have you tried it? 2. Is carrying a baby easier??? An ergonomic backpack just takes all the load off mom's hands. Most of the load is taken by the belt of an ergonomic backpack. In a good ergonomic backpack, soft and moderately wide shoulder straps are designed in such a way that they do not cut into the mother's shoulders and back.

I would like to note that when mom puts on an ergonomic backpack, you always hear the same phrase: “Great! The weight of the child is not felt. And indeed it is. In our opinion, an ergonomic backpack is just a salvation for every mother. You just put on an ergonomic backpack, forget about the pain in your arms, back, lower back and carry your child, enjoying the minutes spent together. The more you carry your baby, the more you and your baby get used to this new to you, but very comfortable means of transportation. If after the first time it is much easier for you than it was without a backpack, but you can still feel that the child is with you, you may still not be quite confident walking down the street out of habit, then in a week you will completely forget that you are wearing an ergonomic backpack, because you will completely get used to it.

3. Not everything can be done in an ergo backpack…

The statement is partially true, because if you put on an ergonomic backpack (or any other type of sling) and put your baby there, then you must observe, such as: be careful when preparing and eating hot food (so as not to burn the child), be careful with sharp objects (so as not to injure the child). Sports are not allowed: running, horseback riding, cycling, boating, etc., because if you fall (on the ground or into the water), you will not be able to save the child. An ergonomic backpack should not be a substitute for a car seat. In addition, when carrying a baby in an ergonomic backpack, you should wear comfortable shoes and remember that you are sitting on a baby, and therefore you need a wider passage than usual.

Otherwise, an ergonomic backpack is a great helper for mom! Cook, tidy up the house and carry the little fidget with you. Need to go to a store or clinic? The best solution is an ergonomic backpack. No bulky stroller. Saving time and effort. Are you going on vacation? To the cottage? On nature? To the museum? Be mobile with an ergonomic backpack. Why deny yourself the pleasure if you can stay mobile and continue to lead an active lifestyle.

4. Ergo backpack is bad for baby

The statement is fundamentally wrong. As a rule, with this statement, the concepts of “ergonomic backpack” and “kangaroo” are confused.

The main difference between an ergonomic backpack and a kangaroo is in two points: 1) that in a kangaroo, and in an ergonomic backpack (sling backpack, sling), the hip joints are in a physiologically correct position - the so-called m-position, when the head of the immature hip joint of a child correctly fixed in the acetabulum of the pelvic bone. M-position means that the baby's legs are bent at the knees and divorced, hugging mom. In this case, the ass is below the knees. If you look at this position from the side, it will resemble the letter "m". 2) in a kangaroo, the entire load falls at one point - on the tailbone of the baby, and in an ergonomic backpack, the load is distributed evenly.

It is also important to understand what are the recommended HEIGHT and WEIGHT of a child for an ergo backpack(an ergonomic backpack, a sling backpack, which, in fact, is the same thing).

The recommended height and weight are approximately 65 cm and 7-7.5 kg (according to the Association of Sling Consultants), it is also desirable that the child be able to hold his head and raise himself on his forearms while lying on his stomach. By about 4 months, most children reach these indicators, therefore, manufacturers of ergonomic backpacks write about the age of 4 months, however, all children are different, therefore, when choosing an ergonomic backpack, one should take into account the indicators of this particular child. This is with regard to the usual ergonomic backpack, if we talk about the fact that they are designed for smaller children from the age of 2-3 months, as they have additional back support like in a May-sling, and, in fact, they are a hybrid of an ergonomic backpack and a May-sling .

5. How to walk in an ergo backpack in winter ... It's inconvenient

On the contrary, a walk in an ergonomic backpack in winter is very convenient, because you do not have to experience torment with a stroller, I choose the road to bypass snowdrifts, lift the stroller. You are mobile, the child is with you, so the walk is greatly simplified.

When walking in an ergonomic backpack in winter, you have two options: 1. Put on an ergonomic backpack over winter outerwear, and put your baby in overalls there. At the same time, you should not be afraid that this cannot be done, since the belt of the ergonomic backpack is perfectly adjustable. 2. Put on an ergonomic backpack and (more budget option) or sling jacket. The advantages of this method of carrying a baby in an ergo backpack in winter are many. You don't have to buy baby overalls. Not autumn, not spring, not winter. We all know how fast babies grow, especially in their first year of life, so this will save you a lot of money. Autumn has come - put on a sling insert without lining. By winter, you can put on the same sling insert with your other jacket, but already attach a lining-insulation to it. In addition, you always feel your child. Whether it is hot or cold is very easy to determine. The sling insert / sling jacket is indispensable when breastfeeding, because it covers the mother's breasts from the wind and protects from the cold, which is very important when breastfeeding. If the baby is older than a year and has already begun to walk, then here, too, an ergonomic backpack makes life easier for you. Learning to walk does not mean walking well and can walk a long distance. Therefore, as soon as the child is tired, put him in an ergonomic backpack and continue the walk.

6. It's hot in an ergo backpack in summer .

In an ergonomic backpack, which is sewn from natural fabrics (linen, cotton or linen with cotton), it's not hot! Natural fabrics breathe well, good ventilation is provided. The baby's tummy area will always sweat because the baby will receive additional warmth from the mother. Therefore, when using an ergonomic backpack, you should remember that the baby should be dressed a tone thinner, lighter in order to avoid overheating.

7. You can’t feed in an ergonomic backpack - it’s inconvenient

Ergonomic backpack is very convenient for breastfeeding and does not cause any inconvenience on the part of mother or baby. To feed a baby in an ergonomic backpack, it is enough to slightly loosen the strap of the ergonomic backpack so that the baby goes down a little lower and, without taking the child out of the ergo backpack, feed him.

Do not insist on feeding if the baby is excited. Let him calm down. Walk with him, take a walk in the fresh air, hug him while he is in an ergo backpack, talk to him, distract him, and only after he calms down, give him a breast. The child should not have any negative associations with feeding in a sling.

If you do not want to lower the straps, loosen or tighten the straps again, then put the child in an ergonomic backpack, taking into account that you will breastfeed him, placing the belt of the ergonomic backpack on your hips, and not on your waist. Thus, the child will be located slightly lower (than if you put the belt on the waist), it will be more convenient for him to grab the breast.

It is convenient to use in order to hide from prying eyes. However, do not try to completely cover the baby's face - many children, especially those older than 3-4 months, are easily distracted and love to watch the world around them. Constantly. Give the baby the opportunity to relax, get food, but at the same time do not take away from him the opportunity to continue to explore the world around him, because this is what they now like to do most of all.

If the baby falls asleep after feeding in an ergonomic backpack, it is not necessary to remove the sling. Support the child's head so that it does not tip over (adjust the headrest hood) and continue walking.

8. Ergo backpack is ugly .

What is an ergonomic backpack? This is a physiologically correct device for carrying a baby, which allows mother and child to become closer. The key to this statement is the phrase "mother and baby." Is it possible for a mother with a child in her arms to look ugly ???

9. Ergonomic backpack is difficult to put on.

The ergonomic backpack was created not only taking into account all medical requirements for observing the physiologically correct position of the child, and also in order to maximally relieve the load from the back and shoulders of the wearer, but also so that the mother can easily and quickly, and, most importantly, put it on or take it off on her own. .

Our ergonomic backpacks are put on in three steps. He fastened his belt, put the child in, fastened the straps. And you can go on a long (or not so) journey with the baby.

However, we remember that in an ergonomic backpack it is possible to carry a baby in three positions: “facing mother”, “facing mother's back”, “on the hip”.

If we talk about carrying a child in the “facing mother” position, then there is nothing complicated here, and the algorithm for putting on an ergonomic backpack is described above.

Carrying the baby in the “on the hip” position also does not cause any difficulties. Instructions for putting on an ergo backpack in this case

Carrying a baby in the mother-to-back position requires a little more skill, but it is also possible to learn how to seat the baby in this position.

10. In an ergonomic backpack, there is no “face to the world” position, and therefore the child will not sit there

Everyone knows that children love to learn about the world around them, to follow the events that take place around them. But the fact that the child is sitting in an ergonomic backpack (for example, in the most common position - “facing mother”) does not prevent him from looking at the world around him, playing, watching what is happening. The child can calmly turn his head to the side, if necessary, if it is convenient for him, even stick out his arms.

But the position “facing the world” is not recommended by child psychologists for the reason that a baby at this age is not yet able to cope with such a huge flow of information that has fallen upon him. He is more calm, comfortable and cozy if he feels the warmth of his mother's chest, and there is an opportunity to hide from the flow of information that is unnecessary for him.

11. My child will not sit in an ergonomic backpack. .

I would like to ask the question: “Why?” Because he is mobile ... all babies are mobile ... How old is your baby? 4,5,6,7,8? But children sit in ergonomic backpacks at 9 months, and a year and older. Because they are calm, their mother is nearby, they are in constant motion, the picture around is changing, it is interesting.

Especially for those who are afraid to face such a situation, an article was written: “

12. Ergonomic backpack - but will the child fall out?

We can confidently say that the ergonomic backpack is the safest carrier of all slings. The load on the back of the mother is perfectly distributed with the help of a wide and comfortable belt that does not cut into the back of the straps. There is a safety elastic band on the belt, as well as on the straps, thanks to which the straps will not “move out”. Our ergonomic backpacks use only the most reliable fasteners - fastex Duraflex and YKK, which have proven themselves at the world level. The child is tightly pressed to the mother, the back is fixed and perfectly supported.

13. We are already too big for an ergonomic backpack..

Ergonomic backpacks presented on our website are uniform in size. We have specially selected only the best brands that I can offer an ergonomic backpack, equally suitable for both a 4-month-old baby and a 2-3-year-old child (up to 20 kg). That is why it is possible to carry your child in an ergonomic backpack at an older age than 4-5-6 months. When can it be useful? 1. If you have two or more children of different ages. The ergonomic backpack will free your hands for a second child (up to 3 years old). 2. If your baby is just starting to walk, but he still walks very badly. Ergonomic backpack will save you from having to use a stroller. 3. If you go on a trip - an ergonomic backpack is space saving (no need to take a huge stroller with you), health care (no need to carry the baby in your arms until your back hurts), saving time (with a baby in an ergonomic backpack, many questions can be solved much faster, since you do not need to stop to rest or constantly push the child), full mobility (an ergonomic backpack allows you to do what was problematic to do with a stroller - go hiking in the forest, to the beach, to the museum). That is why it is enough just to ask yourself: “Where and when will I use an ergonomic backpack?”. Many options - one solution!

14. Why do I need an ergonomic backpack? I can do it with a stroller too.

Sure you can. You can also cross the underpass with a stroller, if there is one in your city. Pull the stroller up the stairs to the store. Go on a trip, taking a stroller with you. You can take her to the beach, to the mountains, to the forest, to a picnic, to the country house. Or walk in the winter with a stroller driving around the snowdrifts. There are a lot of situations, but in all of them, an ergonomic backpack has a very big advantage over a stroller.

15. The child will grow up, and the backpack will become small for him.

All ergonomic backpacks presented in our store are the same size and are suitable for babies from 4 months (and some models from 2-3 months to 2-3 years old - weight 20 kg). Ergonomic backpacks of the brand "Guslenok", in addition, have adjustments of the back of the ergonomic backpack in width and height. Thus, you can be sure that you can safely use the ergonomic backpack even after the age when the child begins to walk independently. For example, on vacation, when traveling to the sea, to the forest, in public places (airport, train station) to save time, as well as just when the baby is rocking, or when he is sick.

16. Ergonomic backpack not to wear in the rain.

Ergonomic backpack frees your hands, which means you will have the opportunity to take an umbrella in your hands. For mobile mothers, such a device as a slingo-raincoat has been created, which are also presented in our online store. (or just shoe covers, for example) will completely cover your baby from the rain. If necessary, you can also order a raincoat with an additional lining. If we talk about winter time, then a sling insert for your jacket, which is a kind of expander for mom's jacket, will be a real salvation. It is pulled down from below, because the child's legs will never get wet from moisture and remain warm.

17. An ergonomic backpack is expensive. Much cheaper to buy a kangaroo. After all, it is the same carrier.

Children's doctors have already said many times about the dangers of kangaroos. In a kangaroo, the child occupies a physiologically incorrect position because 1) the entire load falls on one point - on the tailbone of the child; 2) the hip joints are not fixed in the acetabulum, which provokes, as well as arthritis of the hip joint in adulthood.

In an ergonomic backpack, everything is exactly the opposite: the load is evenly distributed over the fragile back of the child, the hip joints are fixed.

You just need to answer one question: “Why are YOU buying a carrier?” To be and because it is fashionable? And no matter how it affects the health of the child? Or is your baby's health your top priority?

Chinese-made ergonomic backpacks deserve special attention.

Are you sure that cheapness = safety (of fabrics, patterns)? Are there appropriate certificates? Or does cheapness seem to be the main factor when choosing a product (including for babies) ??? After all, the child will come into contact with these materials with his skin, suck on the straps of an ergonomic backpack when his teeth are cut ........

By purchasing an ergonomic backpack without certification, you agree that you will put your newly born baby in an unknown fabric that has not been tested and certified for allergy and safety for the child. The child's skin will come into contact with the fabric of an ergonomic backpack, the child will suck and procrastinate the straps of the backpack, as his gums itch during teething, sewn in incomprehensible conditions from an unknown fabric.

In this case, no one guarantees the strength and safety of fasteners.

Are you ready to risk the health of your child for the sake of a difference of 300-400 rubles??????
