***Dani and Blayne***

What is the trick to wearing the Seven Sling?  I tried when I first got it and couldn't figure it out.  I've given up right now because my belly is so big and it frustrates me, but I want to be able to use it next time.

Any tips to figuring it out?  I need Sling Wearing for Dummies!  haha!

  • *** butting in *** I just followed the little picture directions and it worked fine - but I only used the hip-style carry. Did you fold it in 1/2 first (like inside of itself)? It honestly wasn't very comfortable, I used it for maybe 10 minutes, although it might be better with a baby and not an 18 pound toddler? But then again you get what you pay for ;) Good luck!

  • Yea I folded it in half with the crease at the bottom.  Then slip her in and unfold/ spread the fabric out behind and under her.  Hope that makes sense!
  • I have only used it in the cradle hold, which Reese is too big for now. I need to try out the other holds. When I put her in the cradle hold, I followed the pictures & pretty much did it exactly the way Blayne said by putting her bottom in & then spreading the fabric around her.

    This makes more sense. It sounds like what I tried but I felt like my tummy was in the way. I obviously can't really try it out until January, but I'll keep this in mind. Thanks! ETA: I think I was trying to make it more difficult than it is.
