About Hip Carriers
Hip-Carriers are usually for older babies and toddlers. They help the parent carry the child on a hip without getting arm cramps and with a bit more security. The 2" wide straps help redistribute the child's weight to the hips and shoulder (with the comfort of a shoulder pad). You can begin to use the carriers at 5 months - when the babies begin to hold their heads up and can continue to be useful as the toddler gets older (up to about 35 lbs.).
