Hug-a-bub® Baby Carrier

Price: £50.00 (Including VAT at 17.5%)

At Hug-a-bub® they know why babies need to be held and they understand how hard it has become for parents in our culture to meet this need alone. They have designed a baby sling that actually makes it more convenient to wear your baby as you go, rather than continually stopping what you are doing to push the pram or bounce the bouncer. The Hug-a-bub® Baby Sling is different from other High Street carriers. It is a wrap-around, soft cotton baby sling, which holds your baby close to your heart. In the Hug-a-bub® Baby Sling , your baby feels hugged even though your hands may be busy doing other things.

The unique wrap method distributes your baby’s weight inwardly, throughout your torso, rather than dragging from your shoulder muscles. It also reduces compression of your baby’s spine, a concern which is often associated with many front carriers. The Hug-a-bub® Baby Carrier offers total head and neck support for newborn, premature or sleeping babies. It offers optimum safety, security and freedom of mobility.

Babies find the Hug a Bub very comfortable if suffering with colic, it can be relieved if carried in the upright position. It brings the wind up naturally. The design makes it easy to slide them out to breastfed and slide them back in to wind afterwards. There is no real weight limit for your baby. The Hug-a-bub® is suitable for babies from premature up to toddlerhood. As long as you still pick them up…they will feel lighter in a Hug-a-bub®! The wide, stretchy cotton straps provide a unique and secure support for your baby’s head and neck. Positions include peapod, heart to heart, on the go, and koala cuddle.

For the traveller – the Hug-a-bub® can be used safely in-flight during take off and landing, though don't buy it just before you go on hols, get used to it at home first!.

There are two positions that may be suitable for breastfeeding your baby discretely and comfortably: either horizontally or vertically, depending on the babies size and the size of the mother’s breasts. (Some women with very large breasts have expressed difficulty breastfeeding in the Hug-a-bub®) Included with your Hug-a-bub® baby carrier is a step-by-step instructional DVD that demonstrates a simple tying method, how to place your baby in any of the 4 different positions and a few handy hints on how to get the most out of your Hug-a-bub® in both hot and cold climates. The Hug-a-bub®’s ergonomic design, wraps around your torso, from shoulders to hips, reducing unnecessary strain on your shoulders, neck and back. It is recommended by physiotherapists for those with chronic back problems. Natural Child highly recommends this baby sling.
