# I suffer from back pain, herniated disc, can I wear?

The most important thing in your case is obviously to listen to you and to respect your signs of fatigue! The so-called ["physiological" babywearing](/hc/en-us/articles/4406216834065) is there to be comfortable for you and for your baby.

If not: which baby carrier do you have? How long do you carry and in which position(s)? Is baby at kissing height?

- In the case of an infant you will be carrying him in your arms anyway because he needs it. This will not help your back pain either. The [ergonomic baby carrier](https://love-radius.com/en/love-radius-baby-carriers-169) is there to relieve you and the weight of the baby, to keep your spine straight, to relieve muscle tension in your shoulders, to distribute the weight on your pelvis.

- For a bigger baby, from 7-9kg, and 4-6 months, carrying on the back will allow you to relieve the growing weight of the baby. The back is designed to carry heavier loads. Accompany yourself with a [babywearing instructor](https://love-radius.com/en/workshop).
