Baby's head pushed forward to chest,

Perhaps I just ordered the wrong size, but I could never get a comfortable fit with my baby in the sling. The sling always seemed to push the baby's head forward to baby's chest, so I was always worried the baby couldn't breathe. I even consulted with a baby store employee and practiced, but I couldn't get a good fit. Perhaps I was just paranoid. It's a shame too because I really like the idea of a sling -- it's so much lighter and easier to pack than other carriers. However, it isn't super comfortable when baby gets heavier. I just started using it again as a hip-carry, so hopefully I'll have more success with that.
I'm sorry to say that I can't recommend the product. I also have a moby-style wrap (best for newborns) and an ergo carrier. I LOVE my ergo!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!,

I love this sling. It is a crying shame that it has been discontinued due to govn't regulations. It is the best and easiest baby carrier I have tried!
Not for me!,

Maybe this works for some women, but I am long torsoed and plus size and it was awful. I ended up giving it away. It felt constricting and really hot.
