NuRoo Skin-to-Skin Shirt Overview
Skin-to-skin contact is crucial in the first months of a baby's life, benefitting both infants and their mothers. The NuRoo Carrier is the only baby-wearing shirt that allows skin-to-skin contact while keeping mom's hands completely free. Featuring an easy-to-use t-shirt design, there's no tying, knotting, or wrapping to figure out. Sizes are based on pre-pregnancy dress and bust size with extra room and adjustability for the baby to grow. The Pocket offers enough compression to ensure proper positioning and hug the baby to the mom's skin. This secure fit recreates a safe, soothing, womb-like feeling for the baby. NuRoo's super-soft Signature Fabric is breathable and moisture-wicking to keep the wearer and baby cool and comfortable. Mesh ventilation at the underarms and back helps to release heat. Adjustable closures provide a perfect custom fit every time, even as the baby grows and the postpartum body changes. This carrier is approved for use with pre- and full-term babies and can even be used in the NICU and with twins.

Skin-to-Skin for Busy Moms on the Go
Research has shown that practicing skin-to-skin creates remarkable benefits for both mom and baby. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends daily skin-to-skin contact throughout the baby's first three months. To fully realize these benefits, mothers should spend at least 60 uninterrupted minutes positioned chest to chest with their babies. This can be challenging for today's busy moms, who juggle many responsibilities at once. With the NuRoo Pocket, moms and babies can receive the physiological benefits of skin-to-skin while the mom maintains full mobility and freedom.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Is this shirt as safe as a traditional baby carrier?
The NuRoo Pocket is the first and only skin-to-skin carrier that adheres to ASTM's sling/carrier standards. It has passed retention testing up to 45 pounds
Is this carrier only for newborns, or can older babies use it?
It is recommended for babies up to four or five months of age. By that point, most babies will be ready to transition to a soft structured carrier as they become more curious about the world around them.
Is this safe for twins or triplets?
Yes, it can be used for seated skin-to-skin sessions with twins or triplets as long as they are "visible and kissable" in the neckline. It is recommended that only one baby is placed in the carrier while standing.
Can I use it with a baby in the NICU?
Yes, it is approved for use in the NICU with pre-term infants and supports the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative. There is no minimum weight for the Pocket. If the baby is not yet free of lines and tubes, use the shirt for skin-to-skin sessions while seated, and do not place baby in the interior pocket. If the baby is stable and free of any intervention, you can use the Pocket as a hands-free carrier while up on your feet.
