How to use

What kind of hugging can I do?
"Cradle Carry style" or "Inverted Cradle Carry style" can be used for newborns and pre-set heads, and "Front Carry style" or "Hip Carry style" can be used once the baby's neck and hips are fully supported. Choose the most comfortable way to carry your baby as he or she grows.
Can I carry a baby on my back with "Carry me!"
Please refrain from doing so as it is dangerous.
When I carry my newborn baby, his/her body looks curled up.
There is no need to worry, as the baby is in the same position as when it was in its mother's belly. If the baby is too small to fit in the bag, you can place a folded bath towel inside the "Carry me!" and hold the baby with a folded bath towel or the like inside.
When I do the "Front Carry style", the cloth seems to hurt the back of my baby's knees.
First, make sure that the baby's bottom is at the deepest point of the pouch. Make sure that the baby's hips are in the deepest part of the pouch and that the knees are straight, not bent, to reduce the strain on the baby's back of the knees.
My baby's neck seems to be in pain
Check that the baby's bottom is at the deepest point of the bag. If the baby is too small to be buried in the bag, place a folded bath towel inside the bag and support the baby's neck with your arms. You can also try the "Inverted Cradle Carry style", in which the baby's body is nearly horizontal.
What is the condition of the foot in the bag?
The baby's legs should be in a naturally bent knee position (M-shape) with the hip joints open. It is easier to open the baby's legs if you adjust the position so that the baby's navel is facing the ceiling as much as possible. Please make sure that the hip joints are closed and the knees are not extended straight.

About Products

I see what looks like black dots on the fabric.
These are pieces or remnants of cottonseed unique to cotton fabrics, and are inevitable in the process of making the fabric. Please be assured that it is not a stain.
I feel the strain on my shoulders and back. Is it not good to use it?
Cotton shoulder straps should be spread tightly and should come slightly "outside" of the shoulders as much as possible. If the shoulder straps are placed around the base of the neck, the shoulders and neck will feel the strain. Also, if the shoulder straps are too long, you will easily feel the strain, so try adjusting them a little shorter so that they are not painful. Please feel free to contact us for consultation.
