At what age can I carry baby on my back?

How can I carry my baby without hurting my back?
Some babies lie with their back against their mother's back. This is known as an occiput posterior (OP) position or back-to-back position in the womb. Labour tends to take longer, be more painful and you're more likely to have a caesarean or assisted (instrumental) birth if your baby is in a posterior position.
Can babies sleep in back carriers?
Yes, newborns can indeed be carried safely and comfortably. They will need frequent feeding and changing, but many will settle happily to sleep in a back carry.
