Podaegi - Korean baby carrier

Now I'll show you a different kind of baby carrier, the Korean podaegi.

This is my version of a podaegi, but it can look in many different ways (it can be wide, or it can be narrow, like mine). What all podaegis have in common is that there is no waist strap, instead there's more fabric behind the baby's back than in a mei tai and by crossing the shoulder straps under the baby's bottom a little "pouch" is created in which the baby sit securely. (Below you can see one example on how to use it. The youtube-video is in Norweigan, but there are plenty of videos in English on youtube if you prefer that.)
