How to Use Your Nuna Cudl Baby Carrier With Your Newborn Baby.

hi I'm Sarah from the baby wearing Academy and I'm here today to talk to you about the Nuna cuddle baby carrier I'll be brutally honest and say it's not my favorite I think lots of people are going to love it and it's definitely possible to use it safely

for me it's really bulky there's a lot of it the straps are very heavily P the shoulder straps are very heavily padded and the thing about padding is it's not necessarily the answer to comfort the answer to getting a comfortable baby

the answer to getting a comfortable baby carrier is getting one that fits you and your baby well and knowing how to use it appropriately so sometimes extra padding can just make it harder to get a better fit so some

people are going to love it I think it's not cheap they're about 150 quid and I just think for 150 quid there are a lot of carriers out there that personally I prefer that is a personal

opinion but yeah the waistband is quite nice and soft it's not overly structured the shoulder straps are very structured but yeah that's a personal preference

thing so in terms of using it I tend to find that leaving the back clip done up means I don't have to reach it while it's behind me so leaving that done up I've got it

tight enough so that if I fold those shoulder straps as much as I can and put those on my body so they're in the midpoint on my shoulders this strap is Tau across my chest if I were to make it any looser these shoulder straps would

any looser these shoulder straps would be off the edges of my shoulders once I've got the carrier on they're not going to do me any good so if you're sharing this carrier with somebody you might find that this is the piece that needs to be adjusted between you so do it up fold the shoulder straps put them

it up fold the shoulder straps put them on your body you want this strap to be Tau across your chest you can then Chuck the whole thing over your head fit like a t-shirt that means you never have to reach that clip behind you to get it

done up it also means you can wear it relatively low on I can you see here it's got piping so it will move up and down on the shoulder straps you want it to sit relatively low rather than up on the back of your neck lots of people wear back Clips up on the back of their

the back of your neck lots of people wear back Clips up on the back of their neck because it's the only place they can reach to do it up if you leave it done up and Chuck it over your head then you don't have to reach it to do it up then H before I do anything else

let me show you then find your waistband band pick your waist band up put it on your natural waist you don't need it down by your hips if I were to wear this down here a it's going to make my back clip right up my bag but also it's going to put the baby's head too low on my body I want the baby's head to be on the

body I want the baby's head to be on the firm part of my chest above my breast tissue above any squishy bits that you might have you want your baby nice and high on your body so you're going to get that waistband pick it up put it around your natural waist you've got a fluffy bit of velcro wrap the fluffy bit

round you so that it's level with the floor you don't want it down like that you want it nice and straight and then I can just put my hand through the carrier hold that fluffy bit still find the scratchy end wrap it

around and stick it down again try and get it as straight as you can so that it overlaps like that rather than having it angled because what you get is more of the velcro in

what you get is more of the velcro in contact that makes it absolutely Rock Solid it's not going to come off if you've got a lot of that velcro in contact with itself as it were or the other part of it then you do the international baby rank dance of adjusting your

clothing there we go right now inside the carrier admittedly I bought this second hand so I don't know when you get them new generally with baby carriers when you get them brand new they're set up in the newborn

position if you've been given your carrier or you've bought it on the secondhand Market have a look inside the carrier you've got a zip you want that zip done up if you're carrying a newborn because what happens is when you do

because what happens is when you do that zip up I don't know if you can see that the baby is now going to sit here rather than here so when my baby gets bigger I will undo this ZIP and that flap then opens and my baby can sit in the bottom of the carrier when you've
