A baby carrier is essential for living with a baby.
It's a name you often see and hear, but if you do an Internet search, you'll see a variety of products and information. You may have wondered, "Is this also a baby carrier?"
This time, we will first explain what a baby carrier is and introduce some recommended baby carriers.

What is a baby carrier?

Baby carrier is a general term for equipment used to carry babies.
Baby is an English word that means "baby" and carrier is an English word that means "to carry." It is sometimes called a "baby carrier" using the word "carrier" which means "something to carry."

Baby carriers include a variety of items, including baby carriers and piggyback straps that are attached to an adult's upper body with strings or belts, baby slings made from a wide cloth that is used to hold the baby, hip seats that are used to place the baby's bottom on a pedestal, baby seats that are used when carrying the baby in a car, and basket-shaped kuhans.

What is the difference between a baby carrier and a baby carrier?

A baby carrier is a type of baby carrier.
In other words, all baby carriers can be considered baby carriers, but baby carriers can also include items other than baby carriers.

This can be confusing as the meaning may vary depending on the person or situation. When shopping or gathering information on the Internet, try to access the information you want from the context and attached images.

When should you use a baby carrier?

There are many different types of baby carriers, so of course each one is suitable for different situations.

Baby carriers, piggyback straps, and slings are useful not only for going out, but also for putting your child to sleep when you want to free up your hands for housework. The sling is made of cloth and is lightweight and can be folded compactly, making it great to carry around. I don't always need a baby carrier, but I want to use it in an emergency! Recommended for moms and dads.

Baby carriers with hip seats are popular because they can reduce the burden on moms and dads even when their babies grow heavier.
The hip seat is useful for breastfeeding newborns, supporting side-carrying, when holding the baby frequently when starting to walk, or when using it alone when you want to hold the baby for a while.

The Kuhan, which resembles a large basket with handles, is a baby carrier that allows you to move your baby while lying down. It can also be used as a cot, making it useful when visiting grandparents or friends.

Baby seats (child seats) are used when traveling with a baby in a car, but depending on the product, there are also products that can be used to carry the baby like a basket when traveling on foot, sit on it as a chair in the room, or use it like a cradle.

4.What kind of baby carrier should I choose?

The best choice will depend on the situation you want to use it for, as well as the age and growth rate of your baby.

If you want to keep your hands free while holding or carrying your baby on your back, use a baby carrier, piggyback strap, or sling. Check the ease of putting on and taking off and the tightness before choosing.

Slings are preferred in terms of ease of use, but multi-functional baby carriers are superior in terms of stability. Some baby carriers are designed to be easy to put on and take off, so we recommend trying them on to see how easy they are to use before purchasing.

Being close to mom and dad makes the baby feel safe. The younger the baby, the more important the close contact is. There is also the benefit of increased stability due to close contact. Since moms and dads don't feel the weight of the baby, they can hold their heavier babies relatively easily.

The target age range varies depending on the product. Regular baby carriers and piggyback straps can be used from around 4 months of age, when the neck can sit and the head no longer wobbles. There are also baby carriers that can be used from around 6 to 7 months when the baby can sit up.

If you are traveling for a short time, it is good to use a kuhan or a baby seat as a carrier, but since the weight is concentrated in one hand, it may be suitable for strong fathers.

When using a baby seat in a car, the baby is secured with a belt, so the products that can be used will vary depending on the child's age and body size. Since it affects your life safety, be sure to check the appropriate height and load capacity, and choose the one that suits your body.

5.What baby carrier do you recommend?

We've talked about the different baby carriers you should choose depending on the occasion and purpose of use, but it's safe to say that the most versatile baby carrier is a baby carrier with a hip seat.

The baby carrier with a hip seat has a structure that distributes the weight over the shoulders and hips, and is designed to keep the center of gravity at the center of mom and dad's bodies, making it easier to carry than a regular baby carrier. Therefore, it can be used until the age of 4 when the child weighs 20 kg. When used alone, the hip seat can also be used as a support for breastfeeding and putting the baby to bed, and can be used comfortably for a long time from the moment the baby is born until the baby is no longer held.

BABY & Me's hip seat carrier ``BELK-S first set'' can be used as a baby carrier from the newborn stage by changing the parts, so it is especially suitable for a baby carrier with a hip seat, allowing you to carry your baby for a long and comfortable time.

The Belque S First set can be used as two types of baby carriers by switching parts.
