The Pearl is a standalone newborn carrier and is not designed to be used with the Tushbaby Hip Seat. Once your baby reaches 18 lbs, you can switch to the Hands-Free Setfor support and versatility through toddlerhood.

The Pearl is specifically designed for newborns weighing 8–20 lbs, offering soft, structured support that mimics the womb while promoting healthy development in the earliest stage.

The Hands-Free Carrier Set includes the Tushbaby Hip Seat and Snug Attachment wrap, which work together to create a convertible carrier for babies 8–45 lbs. The hip seat supports your baby’s weight while offering built-in storage, and the Snug adds hands-free convenience and flexibility when needed.

Many parents start with The Pearl, then transition to the Hands-Free Set as their baby grows and gains head and neck control.

Yes. The Pearl is designed to support healthy hip development for newborns in both the “froggy” (legs-in) and “M-shaped” (legs-out) positions, depending on your baby’s stage and preference. 

In the earliest weeks, some babies naturally curl into a “froggy” position, with their knees drawn up and tucked inside the carrier—similar to how they were positioned in the womb. During this stage, it’s important that your baby’s weight is supported by the carrier’s fabric (not resting on their feet) and that the back panel is snug to distribute weight evenly and securely.

As your baby stretches out and grows—whether within the newborn stage or over the first few weeks—they may begin to prefer the legs-out position. The Pearl supports this by creating an ergonomic “M” shape, where your baby’s bum sits in the base of the carrier, their knees are higher than their bottom, and their legs naturally wrap around your torso. This position promotes healthy hip development and provides optimal comfort for both baby and wearer.

The Pearl is designed for newborns and infants from 8 to 20 pounds. It offers a snug, secure environment that mimics the womb, helping babies feel safe and supported from day one.
