Product description

Inspired by Asian baby carriers, the Mei Tai MAX is a compromise between a sling and a structured baby carrier.

Description

Flexible and without plastic fasteners, it is equipped with straps that end in a sling for a better envelopment of the baby. Comfortable, soft and light, it is very easy to use and takes up little space. Our Mei Tai model stands out from others of its kind thanks to its soft twill fabric and its innovative adjustment system. This baby carrier is perfect from birth and can be used for as long as the wearer wants.

Direction for Use

Belly to belly:

0-6 months

The belly-to-belly carry, where the baby is carried in a crouched position, is the most suitable carrying position for a newborn until at least 4 months. The back should be nicely rounded like in mom's belly, the knees well up and the feet down. You can practice the skin-to-skin technique with a baby of 8 lbs and more, easily and safely. This position provides the comfort needed to develop a sense of emotional security. The squatting position is recognized for its benefits for the development of the baby's bones and joints. Before 1 month of age, the baby can remain with his legs folded inside.  Before 6 months, avoid applying tension to the middle of the back. Unfold the straps like a sling around the baby's bottom.

0-6 months and older

From 6 months and when baby is sitting up, his spine is strong enough that he no longer needs continuous support on his back. He can even put his arms out over the straps, if he is big enough.

On the hip:

From 4 months of age

As soon as the baby has a good head hold, you can start carrying him on your hip.  This is an intermediate position that gives the parent a little more freedom of movement than the stomach position. Remember that without a baby carrier, we naturally carry the baby with one arm on our hip.

From 6 months of age

As soon as the baby is in a sitting position. You can also take his arms out over the shoulder straps.

On the back:

From 6 months of age

As soon as you feel comfortable, you can carry the baby on your back. However, we recommend that you wait until your baby is 6 months old or until he or she is in a sitting position to avoid the risk of injury or suffocation. Because the weight is well distributed on the back, shoulders and hips, carrying on the back is more comfortable, especially when the child gains weight. It is a practical position to regain greater independence of movement and can be used for as long as you need it. This allows the wearer to use both arms with more freedom and perform activities requiring more strength and skill without risking injury to the child.

Facing the world:

From 4 months of age

This carry requires your baby to hold his head on his own. However, this position is not optimal, as it is less ergonomic than a belly-to-belly carry and causes a lot of stimulation for the baby. If you choose this position, make sure to limit the time to a maximum of 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the blood flow in the baby's legs. Observe the color of the skin, which should be pink and not bluish. A cold foot is also a sign of poor circulation. Also make sure that the back is not too flat or rounded with a bad reverse lumbar curve. Finally, don't let the legs hang too low. Tilt the pelvis forward as much as possible to bring the knees up as much as possible and deepen the sitting position. There are 2 ways to perform the face-up position: with the legs folded in or out on each side.

Care Instructions

  • It is very important to wash the baby carrier before the first use. The fabric and the different components are handled and transported in several places and the straps are more slippery before washing.
  • We recommend machine washing on the gentle cycle in a garment bag or hand washing in warm water (no rinse soap preferred).
  • Avoid washing the carrier in a washer where the straps could get tangled around a blender or mixer.
  • Hang to dry and do not iron.

Further Information

  • From birth to toddler (7 to 35 lbs - 3 to 15 kg).
  • Adjustable in width and height to fit baby's size.
  • Suitable for all sizes of carriers.
  • 5 carrying positions depending on age, level of development or activity.
  • Belt to reduce the width of the seat to allow a nice squatting position.
  • Back height reduction straps to adapt to baby's size.
  • Adjustable head support and padding under the thigh, at the shoulder straps and waist.
  • Made of 100% organic soft woven cotton.
  • The front pocket of the Mei Tai can have up to 9 different versions. It is therefore possible that your baby carrier will differ slightly from the one shown in the picture. These baby carriers are all handmade in Canada. They are all beautiful in any case.
