As baby-wearing becomes more and more popular with parents and caretakers, the New Native Baby Carrier caters to an ever-growing niche market. The New Native Baby Carrier is a versatile baby sling and soft carrier at the same time. The New Native Carrier allows the traditional cradle hold as well as carrying toddlers on parents' hips. Here are the basics for using a New Native Baby Carrier.

Always ensure that your baby has a clear passage of breathable air.

I have one of these carriers and they are wonderful when you get them adjusted just right....we went recently to St. Augustine and I carried my son with me the whole couple-mile walk and the next day I wasn't sore at all really. Well, just a little but for a one year old that's good! I was hoping to hear more about the hip carry position though because its not that well explained in the instructions the sling comes with so I just wanted to see if there's anything i could be doing better, to make it more comfortable for me and my son. They do work well though, i would encourage any mother to buy them! -
