Finding the right t

You will want the sling to t snugly but feel comfortable. If you put your baby
in the sling and it feels too tight, you need a larger size. If the sling is too loose
and baby doesn’t feel secure then you need a smaller size.

With baby inside the sling, the baby should sit in line with your hip bones or
above. The bottom of the pouch should be somewhere around your belly
button. If it’s much lower than this, your sling is too big.

The t around the baby should be snug and create a womb-like feeling. The
baby may look squished but as long as you and the baby are comfortable then
you have the right size.

See illustration below for a guide to where the sling should lay.
Please remember this is a guideline.

Navel Area

• Good Fit

• Too Low

(Sling is too big)

For the cradle, front carry and tummy to tummy positions, the built-in padding
should be worn on the outside facing away from your body. For the hip and
back carry, built-in padding should be on the inside.

Please note, no matter which position you are using, your baby’s bottom should
always rest on the seam, which is curved to create a deep seat. For the front
cradle and upright positions, the seam should be just off center from your belly
button, about halfway between your belly button and hip bone. For the hip
carry position the seam should be at your hip.

How to fold and put on

1. This is the sling unfolded.

Make sure it is folded
before wearing.

4. Put the sling over your
head so it rests on one
shoulder with seam at
the middle of your
chest.

2. Fold the sling

inside itself.

5. The curved seam will

now be in front

creating a pouch for

your baby.

3. This makes the sling
into a two-layered

tube.

6. Make sure the fabric

lies flat across your
back and covers your

shoulder to ensure
comfort.

sling bottom rst.

2. Open the pouch by
pulling the outer

fabric layer away

from your body with
your free arm.

the baby’s bottom
and cross baby’s feet.

comfortable.
