We speak about backpacks for newborns

Ergonomic backpacks for newborn children are increasingly gaining popularity with dads and moms. The design of this device allows you to carry the baby in a natural physiological position for him. If you list the benefits that a backpack for newborns have, you can note the following:

1. The neck and spine of the child are maintained when worn evenly.
2. Its dimensions are optimally suited for comfortable placement of the child in a backpack.

Care for the neck and spine of the newborn

Thanks to the uniform support of the spine along the entire length, backpacks for newborns allow you to distribute the load to different parts of the body evenly. Thus, from the earliest age there are conditions for a healthy posture, which is the prevention of diseases of the musculoskeletal system. This aspect will help the child learn to sit down (if he does not know how to do it), and later to get up. The immature pediatric spine can fully rest and physiologically develop correctly. Also, many parents are aware of the importance of supporting the baby's head for up to 4-5 months. Backpacks for newborns due to their design allow the child to keep his head at the right angle. The unnatural position of the head at this age may lead to later flattening of intervertebral discs, curvature of the spine, pathological changes in the vertebrae.

Dimensions of the backpack

Unlike soft slings, the carrying for children of this type differs strictly in the prescribed sizes. The most important parameter is the back width. Backpacks for newborns should optimally fit the size, age and weight of the baby and be adjusted in accordance with its growth. A newborn infant often chooses the most familiar pose for sleeping and resting - the embryo pose. In this case, his back is rounded, and the limbs are pinned to the body. In this position, you can carry a baby and many types of carry. Comfortable adjustable straps are another secret of such devices. Pulling or loosening them, parents can best adjust the product to the baby.

Quality backpacks for the newborn, in addition to a sufficiently wide back and shoulder straps, also have a belt. It helps to maintain the physiological position of the child and correctly distribute the child's weight to the parent. Please note that some models, such as the Chicco baby backpack , are fitted with dense boards that are responsible for child safety and the prevention of injuries. The hood is also an important part of the sling design. He also protects the curious curious kid from blows, and fixes his head in the right position, even when the crumb sleeps.

Planting a child

Putting the baby in a backpack carrying, do it right. Especially pay attention to the breeding of the legs - it should not be too wide. Incorrect position of the legs often leads to dysplasia of the hip joints, subluxation or complete dislocation of the hip. One of the situations when the baby's legs may be in the wrong dilution is the excessive attraction of the baby to the mother. This can happen both because of incorrect adjustment of the straps of the belt (this is a "sin" for poor-quality backpacks for newborns), and because of errors in the selection of the size of the product (sling is too small or too large for the baby). Make sure that the baby's legs hang freely, supported under the knee fabric of the product. Then the backpack-sling for newborns will be useful and convenient!
