Active BackCare Baby Care bags

During pregnancy ligament-relaxing hormones slacken the support of the lower back and the centre of gravity changes as the baby develops, usually leading to a backward leaning posture. Coupled with fatigue and enlarging breasts that strain the upper back, pregnancy often induces back pain not previously experienced.

Once the baby arrives it's well known that the extent of equipment needed when out and about usually weighs more than the baby!

Excessive, uneven loads can accelerate problems with intervertebral discs and ligaments increasing the risk of back trouble and permanent deformation of the spine.

These back packs are specially designed to meet the needs of mothers and any one involved with day to day child care on the move.

The unique back panel allows for even weight distribution and maximum support - but it so easily converts to a buggy bag too.

These versatile bags are designed to fulfill all the needs of day to day child care on the move. As well as being an extremely comfortable and supportive backpack, with the unique BackCare back panel, they are equipped with easy-fit buggy attachments so they can be carried safely on the handle of almost all buggies and prams. Everything needed to attend to a child on the move is accessed from the outside of the bag :-

Soft padded shoulder straps are easily adjustable and are fitted with quick-release safety buckles.

The white, waterproof lining makes for easy searching in poor light.

Attractive sponge clean, pvc backed, microfibre twill fabric.

When worn as a backpack the shoulder straps should be adjusted until the curved base rests gently on the buttocks and the back panel is in close contact with the spine. In this position the load is supported by the body's major muscles and the spine is cushioned in an upright position. It will be obvious when it is correctly adjusted as it feels extremely comfortable and supportive.
