BABYBJÖRN Baby Carrier One (Baby Product)

Customer Review

Both of our elastic sling as well as the Miss Pretty carrying our boss has grown out. A new carrying aid was urgently needed. A BabyBjörn Carrying would never have come into the house not long ago to me because the previous models allowed neither the ergonomically recommended squat spread position still supported them adequately the baby back. Now the new model but promised better setting for ergonomically correct wearing. And I think everyone (including a company) deserves a chance, I wanted to try at least once.

Easily adjustable ridge width (narrow to less narrow)

Unfortunately, it also managed the new model from Baby Björn not to convince me. While it allows a zip to vary the web width so as to ensure a spread position, however, possible only two widths: a narrow for newborns, and a wider, to be used according to the manual from dress size 62. If the dress size 62 BabyBjörn One allows then also probably a very good squat spread position. However, our crumbs slowly grew out of dress size 68, as we tried the One. Since the bridge was enough no longer from knee to knee.
In addition, the back is too stable. This may give the impression of security, but hurts the backs of little more. The cloth should give support to adapt to the baby's back but not vice versa. The child should be sitting with a rounded back, not upright. This is only insufficiently possible in the One.

When wearing it is also about proximity

As strange I felt that some of the support between me and my crumbs are when he sits in the carrier. Not only material, but also in two sewn, stable pursuit. Not only that one arg to sweat under the blended fabrics - while wearing it is also about proximity and binding. Midwives recommend just in newborns often possible skin to wear on the skin, in order to stabilize the relationship between parent and child and strengthen. That would not be possible with the One.

Unlike me, my seven months, however, found the not so bad. He liked it that he was able to play around on the two yard long notes with the instructions for use. These qualities are sewn right in front of baby's nose. Although you can stuff them in a small pocket. But curious explorers fingers have great pleasure in it rauszufriemeln again. These baby-employment I regard almost as a plus point. ;-)

Confusing and complicated

Ever, the carrier is loaded with zippers, buckles, pieces of paper, descriptions and loops. What other (often just men) conveys progress and security, I found just confusing and complicated. As I found myself applying a sling easier. What you must click here and change everything, the madness. That may be ok, but if someone wears. But both parents carry - or sometimes the grandparents - and are not all built the same, every time must be readjusted and fumbled. It's frustrating.

Although the hip belt of the BabyBjörn One sits securely on the hips and as the shoulder straps, softly padded, I'm wearing a short time on the back. Because unfortunately, you can not cross the shoulder straps.

Please do not carry your baby facing forward!

BabyBjörn advertises that you can wear with a view to the front with one baby from dress size 62. Many parents want this option as it is the tiny plants get bored if they ever need to just look at the chest. We longed initially even after such a Wearing style. However, several wrap advisors and my midwife quickly convinced us that the other way-wearing was not a solution.
First, the baby's impressions can not escape. But you always need rest, so as not to overwhelm. If they sit facing the carrier, then you can go out of the way external stimuli by cuddling on their caregiver (and usually sometime asleep). Pointing forward they remain shipped until they are stored all the charms.
Second, for the physical development of the carrying method carries forward strong risks. Hip joints and spine of infants are not yet mature. The splayed legs and the spine rounded forward in carrying manner with a view to the carrier support healthy development. The other way around the back hyperextended quickly, the hip hangs unsupported down.
So please, do not carry your treasures with a view to the front! If you have the feeling they do not want to let partout wear because it is too boring for you, try it again. Our tyrant refused it for a while. But when he dominated the head and body even better, he liked it again. For now he could stretch the left and above and see plenty of right and. And when it reaches him, he kugelt up, cuddles up to me and falls asleep.

Suitable perhaps as a piggyback carrying

I'm the Baby Bjorn One give in a few months another chance when our boss can sit quite stable alone, he is old enough to be carried on the back. I would imagine that the One it is at least well suited.

A step in the right direction

As Baby Björn started over 50 years ago with support systems, they were pioneers and probably on the latest medical status. They have many parents in the first place brought to bear what must be counted them up. But in recent years, has a lot done, have brought new research findings. There are now plenty of good, easy, ergonomically better and prettier wearing that are even much more favorable. From 0 to 3 years can be of no use. This should be the Baby Bjorn One but not because they back insufficient support for the smallest and a squat-spread position is limited.

Finally, I would like to quote the babywearing consultant, when we last week our new carrying of baby Roo calling us. Having noted that it would be against their honor as babywearing consultant to offer BabyBjörn-wearing, they conceded that the wider bridge would be a step in the right direction. But only a small one.
