Putting younger babies in a sling or carrier safely
Babies, especially those under 4 months or born prematurely or with a medical condition, may have poor neck control and are at higher risk of suffocation. Talk to your doctor first before using a sling or carrier.
It’s important to position your baby inward facing when they are young and/or have poor neck control. To ensure their airway is clear at all times and their back and neck are supported, follow the CHECK system:
Chin off chest:
- Position your baby so that their chin is not resting on their chest.
- When their chin is on their chest, it makes it harder for your baby to breath as it limits the amount of air that they take in.
- It’s like trying to drink through a pinched straw.
Have your baby in view at all times:
- Make sure you can always see your baby’s face and monitor their breathing often.
- Keep your baby’s face away from the fabric of the carrier or sling, your body or your clothing.
Evenly support their back:
- Position your baby with their chest and tummy against you, keeping their back supported in a natural position.
- Make sure your baby’s legs are not bunched up against their stomach, as this can restrict breathing.
Close enough to kiss:
- Position your baby high enough in the carrier that you can kiss the top of their head by tipping your head forward.
Keep carrier tight:
- Position your baby in an upright position in the carrier and snug enough to support their back and prevent falls.
- Check on your baby often.
- Monitor their breathing and check for overheating.
