With the summer temperatures and recent heatwave we just experienced, have you ever asked yourself ‘how warm will it be in a baby carrier?’
Our partners in Croatia have hot temperatures more or less permanently - at least at this time of year. And that's exactly why a local carrying consultant wanted to know exactly what it was like:
What is the difference between a baby carrier made of mesh material and a cotton carrier?
To find out, she first kept an Ergobaby Adapt and an Adapt Cool Air Mesh at home at a constant 25 degrees and wore each for 10 minutes. After just under half a minute and at the end of the test wearing, a photo with a thermal imaging camera was taken. She repeated the same with the Tula Free to Grow and the Free to Grow Coast carriers. Meanwhile, her baby was wearing a cloth nappy and a cotton undershirt. She wore a cotton T-shirt herself.
The results of her experiment really amazed her Croatian colleague: While the temperatures in the Adapt rose from 25.3 to 33.2 degrees

Can I Use a Baby Carrier when Pregnant?
Growing your family is a big and exciting thing and whilst some people might assume that you've 'done it all before' there are plenty of new challenges to face and experiences to enjoy being pregnant the second (or third or fourth or fifth!) time around. One of those, in particular, is dealing with pregnancy whilst already being a mother.
Plenty will be different - chances are there are fewer opportunities for putting your feet up this time - but there are some things that shouldn't have to change and one of those, at least for the earlier portion of your pregnancy, is babywearing.
Is it safe to babywear while pregnant and will I be comfortable?
The short answer is that if you are healthy and have no medical reason to avoid lifting loads then yes, babywearing during at least the early months of your pregnancy shouldn't pose any risk to you or your children. To set your mind at rest though, check in with your healthcare provider, especially if

AGR seal: A look behind the scenes
The AGR seal of the Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V. (Campaign for Healthier Backs) can be found on all our baby carriers - and even on our stroller, the newly updated Metro Compact City Stroller. In fact, it's currently the only stroller on the market with this accreditation!
A committee of medical and therapeutic experts from a variety of fields certifies that our products are ergonomically optimal - both for the wearer and the children. But what exactly does a carrier have to accomplish to receive the seal? We want to explain this to you in more detail with our newborn carrier, the Ergobaby Embrace.
Before the AGR experts award the much-desired seal, they first compile a list of requirements. In the "comfort baby carriers" product category these requirements aim to ensure that the product is both simple and safe to use. In addition, seating, securing, picking up, carrying, setting down, and removing the child must be friendly to the user's back

Ask the Expert | The 4th Trimester
Explanations and Tips for the Months After Birth
This week is European Babywearing Week, and the theme is “4th trimester and beyond”. But what’s behind the term "4th trimester"? Isn’t a pregnancy actually 9 months long, which is 3 trimesters (1 trimester = 3 months)? Thankfully, our midwife and babywearing expert Katrin has plenty of information to share all about this time. In today's expert tip, she describes everything parents need to know about the development of their baby during pregnancy and especially in the period immediately after birth. And she reveals what parents can do for their offspring in this 4th trimester.
A woman is usually pregnant for nine calendar months or ten lunar months. If the baby is born as planned after this time, one could assume that it is ready and, above all, mature enough. But this is actually not the case. While the parents are impatiently awaiting the birth - because they finally want to hold their baby in their

Everything You Need to Know About the Ergobaby Easy Snug Infant Insert
Nothing is more important than your new little baby. You’ll want to spend every waking moment snuggling them and ensuring they’re content and safe.
Baby Carriers allow you to keep your baby close while still being able to do things around the house and go about having a normal-as-possible day. Well as normal as normal can be in the current times!
For some of our Ergobaby carriers you will need to use an infant insert when using the carrier from birth, read on to find out when you need to use the Easy Snug Infant Insert with your carrier.
How to Use the Easy Snug Infant Insert
Our Easy Snug Infant Insert can be used two different ways:

You can use just the pillow part of the insert as a cushioned booster
