But if you’re preparing your baby registry, you may feel overwhelmed by the many choices out there. There are a few items that tend to rise to the top of parents’ lists, though, whether for their value in keeping baby happy, healthy, comfortable or safe. But there are some important things to look for as you’re building your registry that can make shopping easier. The Infantino Flip Advanced 4-in-1 Baby Carrier adapts to fit your baby as they grow. Suitable from birth all the way up to 14.5kg, this clever companion helps you carry your baby while leaving your hands free. In addition to its wakeup alarm, the Hatch Baby Rest Sound Machine and Night Light also lets you program the light to change colors at certain times throughout the night.Keeping an eye on your baby will be extra important in those early months. Consider a car mirror that easily attaches to a rear seat to let you see your baby every time you look in your rearview mirror. Your baby will be able to see you as well, which can keep that all-important connection going when you’re on the road. Most of these mirrors are both simple to install and easily adjustable.

Her shoulders would barely fit under the straps when stationary. If she moved at all, her arms tended to slip out from the straps and they would push on the sides of her arms. This didn’t seem to bother her, but she seemed much less secure in the carrier when this happened. Testing and Research This carrier didn’t seem to have as effective of an ergonomic seat as some of the others we have tested. It did not keep our test subject’s legs in the “M” position very well, but rather, her legs seemed to hang straight down. This is likely what contributes to the pinching and circulation issues complained about with this carrier. We especially noticed this in the forward-facing carry. The inward facing carry with the opened up seat seemed to support her legs a little better. All the carriers in this list have been tried by parent testers. During the testing process we considered comfort, ease of fit, adaptability for different body types, number of carrying positions, fabrics used, design and appearance, and extra features. We also asked testers if they felt the product was worth the money.We set up the Infantino to determine how user friendly it was, how easy the instructions were to follow, and how long it took to set up.

The belt can be adjusted from 61 to 124.5cm for the perfect fit.

Despite these things, our one-year-old test subject, who generally does not like to be in a carrier, seemed happy and comfortable the entire time she was in it. The Infantino Flip Advanced 4-in-1 When your baby is a little older, switch to the facing-in expanded seat. It offers the same support, while accommodating a larger baby. The carrier does also have a narrow seat and wide seat options that can be adjusted with simple snaps to the right style for your baby’s size. Design QualityAs with all carriers, you should not bend at the waistwhen wearing a child. We certainly did not feel safe bending over with our one-year-old test subject, and would not advise attempting it even with a smaller baby. Always bend at the knees when you are babywearing. For taking your infant on the go, a baby dome can be a great option. It serves as both a handy napping space and play area when on the go. The mattress is padded to keep baby comfortable throughout the day. The Infantino advertises being able to hold children between 8 and 35lbs. However, when testing the carrier with a 26lb one-year-old, we felt that she was pushing the limits of the carrier. Our one-year-old test subject seemed too tall for the Infantino
