MiaMilt Hipster - How to Use Double Shoulder Top Carrier; Face-In Carry + Face-Out Carry; Breastfeeding; Using the Head Cover

1. Once you have put on the HIPSTER™ hip seat base (see 4
Simple Steps for the HIPSTER™ Hip Seat), zip the top of the
Hip Seat to the bottom of the Double Shoulder Top Carrier.
2. Make sure to button the 2 security buttons at the beginning
and at the end of the zipper (which connects the Double
Shoulder Top Carrier and Hip Seat ) as a second security measure.
3. With the Double Shoulder Top Carrier hanging down in front
of you, place your baby on the hip seat base facing towards
your chest (for the Face-In Carry position) or facing outwards
(for the Face-Out Carry position). Make sure your baby
’
s
legs are properly positioned on each side of the hip seat.
4. Using your left hand to support your baby for safety, use
your right hand to reach for the right shoulder strap, put
your arm through the loop and place the shoulder strap
over your right shoulder.

your left hand to reach for the left shoulder strap, put your
arm through the loop and place the shoulder strap over
your left shoulder.
6. Reach over your shoulder with both hands over your head
behind your neck, and buckle in the adjustable back strap.
The adjustable back strap should sit right below your neck
along the shoulder blades. If the back strap is too low and
you cannot reach, adjust it higher on the shoulder strap. If it
is too dicult to adjust with your baby on the hip seat, adjust
the height of the back strap before you place your baby in.
7. Adjust the length of the shoulder straps with the adjustable
shoulder straps under your arms. Do not strap the baby
too tight against your body and always allow room for
head movement. Keep your baby
’
s face free from any
obstructions at all times.
8. Make a nal check to assure all straps and buckles are secured.
