Attached to the Hip baby carriers are versitile, attractive, comfortable and easy to use. Designed by a real mom the Attached to the Hip baby carrier has many unique features not avalible in other carriers. It's the only carrier on the market that does not need to be adjusted to be used in the forward facing out position, one of the few soft structured baby carriers on the market that can be used from birth up to 55 pounds and that can be used in 6 different positions, including two different back carrying positions. Our baby carrier also has wide foam padded shoulder straps and a foam padded waist strap for comfort. The carrier evenly distributes the weight of the infant, unlike many slings and baby carriers. The newborn carrying position supports the infant's head and back without using an addition infant insert.
