  2. The Baby K'tan™ is NOT to be used for a child weighing more than 42 pounds (up to approximately 3-4 years old).
  3. Until your child has sufficient head and neck control, ONLY the "cradle" or "twin" positions may be used; Do NOT carry child in any of the other carrying positions - "explore", "adventure", "hug", "hip", "two-hip" or "back" - until your child can hold his/her head upright unassisted.
