Halter Strap Kangaroo Tube by VIJA Design
A must for the birth of your baby!
Skin-to-skin contact (kangaroo care) immediately after birth helps stabilize the temperatures of newborns and promotes the initiation of breastfeeding. Wear it when you lay by 45 degrees in bed or sitting on a chair.
The Kangaroo tube with halter strap is made from a soft, lightweight and stretchy 94% cotton / 6% spandex jersey for additional comfort for mom and baby - and is flexible enough so that baby can move and seek for the breast. Semi-side seams with elastic shirring prevents baby from slipping sideways and follow the shape of the baby without unnecessary pressure. The double band at the bottom and inner support to the buttocks / lower back prevents baby from slipping down. Just slide the halter straps over the head to breastfeed easily. The halter strap provides additional support, especially if you wear your baby when sitting in a chair. Note that it is not a "hands free" baby carrier so if you get up you must have a free hand to ensure additional protection and support.

Size chart
*If measurement are on the border, choose a larger size (so baby can grow into it. Please make sure it is not overly big as you still need the top to be tight and snug).If you have a question about your size it is always better to order up. However, the fit should be snug. The bottom of the shirt hits a little higher than your hips, so it should not touch a c-section scar.
How to wear baby
Normal precautions:
If you use this garment to carry a newborn, take the following precautions:
WASH THE GARMENT BEFORE WEARING WITH BABY
-Make sure the position is not too "relaxed" (too rounded back), and check if support is well spread. Garment must be tight on body. It's not "hand free" so always keep a hand on baby.
-Always make sure the baby is breathing normally, the airway must never be obstructed.
-Pay attention to your new dimension, you must not get caught in the door frame with the baby!
-Don't sleep, don't do sports or cook with baby inside the garment. Avoid any situation where a fall could occur.
-Make sure the garment is always in good condition. If a seam is about to open, discontinue the use of carrier or garment
