My Favorite Mommy Accessory: Tushbaby Carrier
If you’re in my friend circle or follow me on social media, you would know just how much I have been loving my newest mommy accessory, the Tushbaby carrier. I have raved about it since I got it last week.
My baby boy Braxton turned 10 months recently. At his 9 month pediatrician appointment he weighed roughly 25lbs. He is in the 96th percentile in both height and weight for his age. Needless to say, it has been quite the ordeal to hold him for any extended period of time. This is why I was ecstatic when one my company reps and friend told me about tushbaby and how much it helps her carry her little girl around. I got it immediately and have been in love since.
If you have an infant or toddler I’m sure you’ll love this product too. You can actually use it from birth up to 36 months (or 45lbs) and it can be worn in four different ways.
Wearing the TushBaby is very comfortable, and it’s easy to put on. You simply wrap the TushBaby around your body, above the hips, and secure the velcro as well as the buckle. It feels very secure and with the heavy-duty velcro, it’s not going anywhere! Then you simply set your child on the seat. You can place your child in a feeding position, face to face, front facing or side carrying. I mostly carry Brax face to face (he loves laying on mommy’s chest) or side carrying. His weight is more evenly distributed through my back when wearing the carrier than when I simply carry him on my hip. The anti-slip fabric patch on the seat keeps him in place, and keeps his legs in a good, wide position which is important for his hip development.
Four Ways to Wear Tushbaby
When I have him in the carrier, I do need to hold onto him with one arm to make sure he doesn’t tip backwards, but it’s still significantly less difficult than supporting all his weight on my hip and arm.
TushBaby has multiple storage compartments which makes it even more handy! There is a front pocket which is the perfect size for my small wallet, phone and anything you need within easy reach.
There’s another really big pocket underneath the seat where you could store a variety of items. I carry my wallet, keys, a small pack of wipes, a bottle, toys, etc. There’s also a mesh pocket in the back.
In my opinion, TushBaby is a great option for parents with young children! From birth through toddlerhood, it is a product that can serve many purposes and stages.
Quite a number of my friends got the carrier after I raved about it to them, so I left a great review on their website and reached out to the brand for a discount code and they happily obliged. Purchase from TushBaby and use the code UNORTHODOC to save 15% on your order.
Come back and tell me how you like it!
