HELPFUL HINTS
• Sit down when putting in and taking out your baby. When using the Baby
Carrier Synergy the fi rst few times limit the use to 15 – 20 minutes at a
time until both baby and parent are comfortable.
• When you take the baby carrier o , leave one side completely attached.
This way you will only have to connect one sliding buckle clip before
putting your baby in next time. It doesn’t get any easier!
• To minimize the stress on your back, be sure to wear the baby carrier high
up on your chest. Your baby is in the correct position when you can kiss
the top of the baby’s head by just looking down.
• To nurse in privacy, sit comfortably, loosen all straps and slide one strap
o your shoulder. Have your hands supporting the child and the baby
carrier at all times. Be sure to tighten the straps again before standing up.
• If your baby carrier feels too tight for your baby:
1. Make sure that the size adjustment buckle is in the correct position for
your baby’s size.
2. Increase the length of the straps by adjusting the strap buckles. This will
allow more space for you and your baby.
• When your baby has outgrown the baby carrier, adjust the size adjustment
buckle to the highest position, so that you are prepared for the next infant
using the baby carrier. Store this Owner's Manual with your Baby Carrier
Synergy.
