The Baby K'tan baby carrier is extremely innovative as far as baby carriers go as Baby K'tan lets you have the best of both worlds! If you are torn between purchasing a sling or a structured front carrier then the Baby K'tan is for you. Baby K'tan features a unique double sling design, which is a cross between a soft sling and a structured front carrier. Parents and caregivers no longer have to choose between the stand front carrying baby carrier and the baby sling - the Baby K'tan offers both features in one baby carrier. Baby K'tan can hold up to 42 pounds, which makes the Baby K'tan a great choice, and the double sling design can even hold twins. The Baby K'tan is also machine washable which is great for those messy moments!

SIZING TIPS
The carrier size generally corresponds to your fitted (tight) t-shirt size.
Each person is shaped differently, and like clothing, some people may fit into more than one size or fall in-between sizes on the above sizing chart. The following additional sizing tips should be used as a guide to assist you in ordering the optimal size.
- If you fall in-between sizes on the above sizing chart, CHOOSE SMALLER SIZE.
- If you are petite - 5’4" or under - CHOOSE SMALLER SIZE.
- If you are pregnant, use pre-pregnancy size to determine appropriate carrier size. Carrier size generally corresponds to pre-pregnancy fitted (tight) t-shirt size.
- Only choose larger size if you are 6 feet or taller.
- When trying on the Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier (without your child inside), the lowest point of the carrier should fall just below your chest and above your navel. When wearing your child in the carrier, the lowest point of the carrier may fall at your navel or waist, but should not fall below your hips.
- When carrying your child in the Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier: if the lowest point of the carrier falls at or below your hips, choose a smaller size; if the lowest point of the carrier falls at your chest, choose a larger size.
- When carrying your child in the Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier, if the carrier feels too loose (i.e., child feels insecure, legs are bumping child’s body as you walk, or carrier easily slips off your shoulder), choose a smaller size.
- The size of the Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier is not based upon your child’s age or weight. The cross-stretch of the cotton knit fabric and the eight different carrying positions enables the carrier to grow with your child. Accordingly, you should not require a larger size as your child grows and develops from a baby to a toddler (up to 42 lbs).
The Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier is made entirely of 100% natural cotton knit fabric. The Carrier should fit snugly and securely on you and your child. For optimal fit, wash and tumble dry - this enables the carrier to conform more snugly to your body. If you are new to baby wearing, you may think the Carrier is too small, however, a snug fit is optimal for securely carrying your child and for good back support. The cotton knit fabric enables the Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier to stretch slightly to conform to you and your child.
It is important to us at Baby K’tan, LLC that you obtain a Baby K’tan™ Baby Carrier with the optimal fit, so that you and your baby are comfortable and secure. Therefore, if the carrier you purchased does not fit correctly, you may exchange it for the proper size in accordance with our exchange policy.
