Momcozy PureHug Air Mesh Baby Carrier

Our guidelines advise against using a face-out position for infants under 6 months due to their developmental needs for head, neck, and hip support. For older infants, our focus remains on ensuring proper support and safety, and we encourage caregivers to consult with their pediatrician to determine the most appropriate carrying method based on their child’s individual needs.

To determine if your baby carrier is ergonomic, check that it supports your baby in a natural, seated position with their knees slightly higher than their buttocks — often referred to as the "M-position" or "frog-leg position", which is important for healthy hip development. Additionally, the carrier should distribute your child’s weight evenly across your body to prevent discomfort or strain, and offer adjustable features to ensure a snug, personalized fit for both you and your baby. High-quality, breathable materials and padded straps are also indicative of an ergonomic design.

Yes, newborns can be safely carried in a baby carrier if it's designed to accommodate them. An appropriate newborn-friendly carrier must offer adequate support for the infant's head and neck since they cannot hold up their head on their own. The carrier should also hold the baby in an ergonomically correct position, which means the hips are in a natural "M" shape, with knees higher than the buttocks to promote healthy hip development. For newborns, Momcozy offers a specially designed Newborn Baby Carrier with Sunshield, which provides excellent support and comfort for your little one.

You can start using a baby carrier for your newborn as long as they don’t have any underlying medical conditions. Some baby carriers are specifically designed for newborns, featuring extra neck and head support, and a snug fit to ensure safety and comfort. For example, the Momcozy Newborn Baby Carrier with Sunshield is perfect for newborns, providing the necessary support from birth. In contrast, the Momcozy Ergonomic Carrier is suitable for babies aged 3 months and older. Always check the product guidelines to confirm the carrier is appropriate for your baby's age and weight.
