2. Advantages and disadvantages of using hip seats
The burden on the shoulders and waist is low, and for a little movement ◎
Hip seats have a pedestalDedicatedAs we are, we can distribute the weight of the baby and go to the shoulder and waist.LoadCan be reduced. The point is that it is easy to put on and take off and can put your baby on it smoothly, so it is convenient for a small move.
The difficulty is that both hands are not empty
I'm worried that the pedestal part is bulky compared to a general hug. The hip seat has a simple structure that can be easily attached just by wrapping the waist belt quickly, so it can be easily stored under a stroller, etc. without a cluttered belt.
It is also a disadvantage that both hands are not empty because they hold their children with both hands. If you are hugging for a long time, it is recommended to use a hug cord properly or use a hip sheet (hip sheet carrier) with a shoulder belt like a hug.
3. When can the hip seat be used?
In general, there are many types that can be used until about 6 to 36 months after birth, where you can sit down and sit down. Some types can be used from the newborn.
Each product varies, so be sure to check it.
4. How to choose a hip seat
Select by type
Roughly divided into hip seats3There are some types.
"Went -rolled type"
Like a waist porch, the waist -wrapped type, which is used by wrapping a belt around the waist, is hugged by the baby sitting on the pedestal, so the shoulder is not burdened.
"Shoulder type"
The shoulder type has not only the waist but also a shoulder belt, so the baby's weight is distributed and the burden on the waist is reduced. It is a nice point that the width of the hug style increases as the stability when holding the baby hugs.
"Hug -string type"
The hug -string type hip sheet (hip sheet carrier) has a belt with a general hug -like shape on both shoulders, so the advantage of both hands is free.The load on the shoulder and waist is reduced because it supports the weight of the weight of the weight (mom, dad).
Choose according to the age of the month
Depending on the productteeth,Some can be used since the newborn.
Since the target age is different for each product, you need to check when purchasing.
In the newborn, choose a type that can support your neck that has not been sitting yet. When hugging sideways, you can reduce the burden on your hands and arms by using the pedestal of the hip seat.
