Can I carry my newborn baby in the facing out position?

Published in Omni Breeze

No. You should never carry your baby facing out until the following developmental milestones are met:

  • Displays good head and neck control
  • Chin clears the carrier panel when in good positioning

This is usually around 5-6 months old.
