      Why the correct height is important<\/h2>\n

      \"the<\/p>\n

      A baby sitting too low can have various disadvantages for both you and your child. If the baby sits too low in the wrap, its weight is shifted unfavorably, putting more strain on your back. This often leads to tension and back pain \u2013 something that can be easily avoided with the right carrying method. The height is also crucial for your baby. If it sits too low, it may end up in a slumped position with its chin on its chest. This can restrict the airways and make breathing difficult. Additionally, you may not be able to observe your baby as well, which is especially important in the first weeks. <\/p>\n

      The perfect height: The \u201chead-kiss test\u201d <\/h2>\n

      \"head-kiss<\/p>\n

      A simple and proven trick to check the correct height is the so-called head-kiss test<\/strong>. Your baby should sit high enough that you can easily give it a kiss on the head without having to bend over. If this is not possible and you have to lower your head significantly, your baby is probably sitting too low, and you should adjust the binding once more. <\/p>\n

      How to position your baby correctly <\/h2>\n

      \"baby<\/p>\n

      To ensure that your baby is carried at the ideal height, you can follow these steps:<\/p>\n

      Initially, bind the wrap a bit tighter than you think.<\/strong> The wrap will give a little when binding, so the baby will feel just right in the final position.<\/p>\n

      Position your baby in the squat-spread position<\/strong> and make sure its knees are slightly above the hips. This supports the natural M-shape of the spine. 3. Hold the baby close to your body<\/strong> before tightening the fabric panels. This prevents it from slipping down when readjusting.<\/p>\n

      Test with your hand<\/strong> to see if the back is well-supported.<\/p>\n

      A baby should sit firmly without being constricted.

      Why the wrap is a great choice <\/h2>\n

      \"the<\/p>\n

      Many parents deliberately choose the wrap because it can be individually adjusted and optimally supports an ergonomic posture. Unlike rigid carriers, you can adjust the height and fit precisely to your baby and your own body. Especially for newborns, the wrap is ideal because it perfectly mimics the natural posture and provides your baby with a sense of security. If you are unsure at the beginning, it is worth seeking advice from a babywearing consultant or watching video tutorials. With a bit of practice, correct binding will become routine \u2013 and you can fully enjoy the carrying time. <\/p>\n\n \n
