Baby Bjorn Original



From newborn (at least 3.5 kg/8 lbs and 53 cm/21 ins) up to 11 kgs/25 lbs

Well this is one of my favourite carriers and I would highly recommend this brand and style to everyone. The original is simple and easy to use. This durable baby carrier brings you and your baby closer together in style and comfort all while your baby is safe. The carrier allows for you to be hands free. I have 3 kids, so the carrier was ideal for me picking up and dropping off my kids to school as I still had hands free to hold my Prep daughters hand to keep her safe whilst crossing roads if need be.

The instructions are printed on the inside of the carrier. They are there for useful and easy to remember guidelines. There are 3 heights to adjust baby in carrier and the first starts with 3.5kg, through to 10kg, although this maybe a while before use is made of it, if you have a small baby it is definitely worth the wait, plus it is for safety reasons.

The original Bjorn is so easy to put on and take off. If your baby falls asleep whilst in there and you want to put them down, you can simply undo all the fasteners so that you are not trying to pull the baby out of the carrier and disturbing them. The fasteners are simple and are easily guided with colours to match the red with the red side and blue with blue. It is simply 3 easy steps to put on. - you put the back on like a backpack, connect the centre to create the leg holes and then do the side fasteners up (well one and then put baby in and then the other). Whilst your baby is small and still learning to strengthen the neck muscles there is a support there so that it helps them. There is also holes for there arms, but that is your choice to use them or not. My dd2 always loved to have her arms curled up under her head while she slept in it against my chest.
When they get older and can support their head, you can then just fold the support down. And when they get older again you can face them so they can see the world. My dd2 loved that she could take everything in and see what was going on.




The wide straps allowed for me to carry dd2 until she was 7 months, as she is a big baby she exceeded the limit of 10 kgs. At the beginning even when she was so new, it took a little getting used to on my shoulders, but once your body has adjusted it is the best thing ever.

In conclusion, comfort, durability and style make this Baby Bjorn Original carrier worth it. On the upside, you can choose different colours. You can also get more styles in the Baby Bjorn range.
