This can absorb more weight in older children and is often a good option if the weight of the baby carrier has already been found to be too heavy.

FAQ:
How tightly must the carrier be tied?
As tight as possible. And if you bend over, the child should not move more than 2 cm away from its own body.
How can I tell if the bar fits?
If it extends from the back of the knee to the back of the knee or stops at no more than the middle of the thigh. If the bridge alone has become too small, the straps can be fanned out above the legs – see instructions for older children.
Which size is the right one?
We always go according to the height of the child.
Size 1 fits from birth up to about 95 cm height (fanned out) and size 2 from 75/80 cm height.
Arms in or arms out?
The child decides this as soon as it can hold its head alone and is stable enough in the upper back.
