An indication that your sling is too big is if your baby feels insecure, loose or wobbly. It is also too big if your legs bump the baby's bottom as you walk. A sling that is too big will also cause back ache after wearing it for only a short time. Wearing Instructions Find the curved seam in the pouch and fold the pouch in half positioning the curved seam to the lower end (curved seam will sit at your hip) and the opening facing upwards. Fold your sling in half lengthwise Determine which shoulder you want to wear your sling on.  Hold the sling with the seam down and the fold on the same side as the shoulder you want to wear it on.  If you want to wear on your right shoulder, then put your left arm and head through the opening.   The seam should be slightly in front of your hip.  The sling forms a "pocket" for the baby.   After putting your sling on, pick your baby up and put her up over your shoulder.  Open the pocket of your sling and lower baby in, bottom and feet first.  Her bottom should be in the curve of the sling, with the seam running perpendicular to her spine. "Bounce" her down into the sling, by grabbing the outer rail.  Baby can sleep, nurse, or look around.  Arms can be in or out. Hip Carry Place the sling over your shoulder with the open edge facing upward. Remember the seam will be on the "Hip" end and not the shoulder. Gently place your babies legs between you and the sling. Holding your baby with one arm use your other hand to open the sling (the most comfortable fit will have the seam being right between the babies legs and up their back) For the Hip Carry it is most comfortably worn if the seam is slightly to the outside of your breast. Holding on to the bottom of the sling gently lower your baby into the sling. If you need to adjust the sling, slide the baby around to your hip with their legs straddled, one in front and one behind. Your babies arms can be in or out. Cradle Carry  Place the sling over your shoulder with the open edge facing upward. Remember the seam will be on the "Hip" end and not the shoulder. Place your baby on your shoulder and open the pocket of the sling. Gently lower your baby into your sling, bottom and feet first.
