American Academy of Pediatrics on "Bucket Babies" and SIDS What are "Bucket Babies"? You've seen
babies carried around in car seats at knee-height...being lugged around
everywhere they go...these babes rarely leave their carseat/stroller
'bucket'. Life for them is lived at a lower level (literally). They are
not up at eye-level with mom and dad and the rest of the world. They are
not talked with the same as slingin' babies. They are not at
kissing/hugging/holding level. They are not heart-to-heart with mom.
They do not have easy access to her warmth and her milk. These are
babies that have been sadly termed "Bucket Babies" and they face many
additional risk factors for health problems - SIDS being one. Let's
bring them up to where they belong.
Using the ERGObaby carrier gives you continuous connection, fabulous feeling of freedom, and security knowing your baby is safe.
This
is the all-in-one soft baby carrier, assisting you through all the
stages of your baby's growth and moving from front to hip to back
position easily.
Parents tell us the ERGObaby
carrier is the best of all the baby carriers on the market. It was
designed by Karin Frost and has undergone extensive testing by tens of
thousands of parents. Its innovative design makes wearing your baby
comfortable for hours at a time, gives you the freedom to remain active
and productive in your daily life, and holds your baby secure to your
body so you are Hands Free.
ERGObaby’s
baby carrier design supports a natural sitting position for babies,
eliminating compression of the spine and hips that can be caused by
unsupported suspension. The baby carrier also balances the baby's
weight to parents' hips and shoulders, and alleviates physical stress
for the parent.
"Mei tai" (pronounced "may tie") is a generic term for a particular style of baby carrier, generally a square- or rectangle-shaped piece of fabric with straps on all four corners. The "traditional" mei tai has a history that stretches back hundreds of years. The carrier has its roots in Asia, where mothers often carried their babies in simple fabric carriers that tied onto their bodies.
The mei tai style of carrier is now becoming popular in the Western world as well, due in part to its supreme comfort and versatility. With a mei tai carrier, your baby can be worn on your front or your back, from the earliest newborn days through to toddlerhood and beyond. This gives the carrier a longevity not found in most popular carriers, which often can only be used comfortably for the first few months of baby's life.
