Does a Baby Sit Comfortably In a Baby Carrier?

Baby carriers are designed to encircle the baby, so weight can be distributed across the baby’s entire body. This is important because babies have very different proportions to adults. Your baby’s head, for instance, accounts for up to one third of their total body weight and the baby carrier’s adjustable head support helps to support your baby’s neck muscles. BabyBjorn's tests show that most of the pressure under the baby’s bottom in the baby carrier is placed on the sitting bones, which is exactly what they want for optimal sitting comfort for the baby. As there is least pressure around the genitals, there is no risk that they will be harmed in any way. A nappy makes it even softer.
