ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a flexible, lightweight infant carrier that is suspendable from a wearer's shoulders and configured to define a seat that permits the infant to assume a seated position with its knees raised relative to its buttocks and the backs of its thighs comfortably supported. With an infant seat formed in accordance with this invention, nearly all of the infant's weight is carried by the seat where it supports the infant's buttocks. Very little of the infant's weight is borne by the edge of the seat where it contacts the infant's legs. Accordingly, the infant's thighs do not press uncomfortably against the edge of the seat. The present invention also provides a flexible infant carrier that is readily adaptable for wearing with an infant facing toward or away from the wearer.
