Everybody's doing it - well moms and dads in increasing numbers are doing it! They are wearing their baby!
Stylish baby carriers have become the latest fashion must-haves for new mom and dads. Celebrities like Brad and Gwen are using them to carry their babes around town.
You can find them in all shapes and forms - the one you choose will depend on your lifestyle. They are fashionable, functional and built for comfort. You can choose a back frame carrier for outdoor adventures, a sling for out-and-about in the city, and a wrap style for being close to your baby.
The sale of baby carriers has grown in leaps and bounds in the past few years for a wide range of reasons. Here are 5 reasons why baby wearing is so popular - maybe you want to join the in-crowd?
1. Flexibility. Today's moms and dads are multi-taskers - they have to be to get everything done that they want to get done. It is hard to accomplish everything if you are holding your baby much of the day the old traditional way (that is, without a carrier). A carrier provides the flexibility to free your hands so that you can look after baby and at the same time accomplish other tasks.
2. Comfort. Baby carriers are comfortable for both the baby and for the parent carrying the child. Once you get used to wearing the carrier and see how comfortable they are to wear for you and your baby you will probably wear your carrier a fair bit. Today's modern carriers are ultra comfortable since they are designed to distribute weight across the shoulders and back of the person doing the carrying which greatly enhances the comfort.
3. They can be used when baby is a newborn all the way up to a toddler.
4. The carrier slings make it easy to hold a baby, and we all know that the more babies are held the more content they are and the less they cry.
5. Easy to breastfeed. With a baby carrier breastfeeding a baby can be done anywhere. Wrap carriers, in particular have a large amount of material in the 'pouch' where you hold the baby. This provides mom and baby with privacy during feeding and it also means that the baby without being taken out of the carrier can be moved from one side to the other.
Celebrity watching is a 'national pastime'. They tend to lead the pack in style. This time however, they are using baby carriers in ever-increasing numbers not only because they look good, but more because they are comfortable to wear and have so many advantages to mom, dad and baby.
Moms and even more and more so now - dads are getting in on the fun, comfort and happiness of 'wearing their baby'.
