Abstract

A baby-carrying harness has fitted thereto a baby carrying pouch which includes a front wall that has at least one free side edge (24) which can be fastened to an adjacent harness chest strap (31) by means of a connecting device (41, 32) for supporting the front wall (22) of the carrier pouch on the harness (1) and define a baby leg opening between the front wall (22) and the chest strap (31) beneath the connecting device. The connecting device includes a hook fastening (75, 43; 32, 33) which has a downwardly extending finger (43) that engages a male part (75, 43) fitted on the front wall (22), and a finger-receiving female part (32, 33) carried by the harness (1, 31), wherein the upper part of the male part is connected to the front wall. The upper portion of the male part is joined to the front wall (22) in the proximity of the finger, at least in the region of the free end of said finger. The finger (43) and the female part (32, 33) have a mutual engagement length (A) of at least 4 cm, preferably about 7 cm, for holding the side edge (24) of the front wall (22) against the harness (1, 31) along a corresponding distance, so as to limit the size of the leg opening.
