  Kate needs some baby carrier advice: We have been advised by our chiropractor that facing our 5 month old outwards would be advantageous for him (I am aware it is not normally recommended, but this is on professional advice to assist with his growth and development in association with a specific trauma). I would like to find a carrier that would be the most supportive for him in terms of not letting him dangle by his bits etc. (our chiropractor is not familiar with the latest information on all baby carriers available so suggested we do some research of our own on the subject to find something most suitable for both myself and my son). Does anyone have any suggestions please? I have a mei tai ordered but I don't think this is suitable for facing outwards? TIA

  Beco Gemini http://www.wearyourbaby.com.au/shop-gemini.php is the only carrier I would ever suggest facing forwards in and only for the smallest of intervals. But to be honest I'm not sure how advantageous facing a 5 month old forward can really be. I work with my local chiropractor clinic helping families find alternatives to forward facing carriers. Definitely get a second opinion.
