“Babies are in the womb for nine months, and then at birth they are suddenly outside the womb. Parents, can’t expect babies to be independent instantly and they can assist babies to adapt and grow with confidence and calmness by carrying baby in a carrier,” explain Dr Izam.

Not only will babywearing enhance the physical, mental and emotional development of the baby it also helps mother reduces baby blues and chances of developing post-natal depression.
