THE PRIZE

One reader will win a Britax Baby Carrier!

MY REVIEW

In the first few months, a baby carrier is an absolute must, and I’ve tried quite a few different kinds with all three of my babies.

Here are some things I love about the Britax Baby Carrier:

This carrier is very easy to get on and off and also very comfortable. It’s also easy to adjust, so having multiple people wear it and carry baby isn’t a big deal.

I love the little zipper insert that raises up the base of the carrier where the baby’s bottom sits – this feature makes carrying a newborn possible, comfortable, and safe because it puts their head up high enough to be out the top of the carrier. (You can see this feature in the picture at the left – the lower base is for bigger babies and the upper one for newborns.)

The light color is great too – perfect for winter and summer babies!

This carrier is another great quality product from Britax!
