Baby Ring Sling Instructions

By following these tips and the instructions that come with every Carry Me sling, you'll be amazed at how easy wearing a baby sling actually is.

With some practice, using your sling will come very naturally to you and you'll wonder how you ever lived without it.

Hold your baby in sling as high as you would if you were carrying her without a sling

Make sure your sling is on right side up, with the stitched part forming a cap over your shoulder.

Start with rings high on your shoulder, they will slip down as you make adjustments. You want them to end up just below your collarbone.

Make sure the material is spread wide across your shoulder so it's not twisted or bunched up around your neck.

Check both the top and bottom edges of the sling to be sure they are holding baby securely and comfortably.

Be mindful of his noggin as you go around corners and keep one hand on him if you bend down.
