Times change, and kangaroos replaced slings. By their purpose, they are similar to kangaroos, but much more convenient for both mother and baby. Sling allows you to carry your baby in the following positions:
- on the stomach;
- on the back;
- on the hip.
Many mothers liked this invention, but not everyone knows how to put it on correctly. Ways to properly wear a sling depend on its type, and today we will consider three options for carrying a child in a position behind him.
Sling with rings
First, choose the shoulder on which you are going to wear the baby. We throw the product on it so that the rings are located under the collarbone, and the bottom - at the level of the protruding part of the thigh.
Now move the rings a little back. We take the baby and put it on our free shoulder, while its legs should be threaded into the sling as shown in the photo below.
Holding the child by the back, we straighten the web of the sling. At the same time, its upper edge should be located just below the baby’s neck, and the lower one - under the knees.
Now we sit the crumbs in the resulting bag.
We straighten the lower edge of the product so that the canvas passes clearly under the knees of the baby. We straighten the web of the sling and along the back of the crumbs.
Now we attract the child to ourselves and begin to pull up the upper and lower edges of the sling web. The canvas needs to be attracted not too tight, but to a comfortable state.
As a result of these manipulations, the child should be tightly drawn to the mother, and his legs should be on the same level.
Now it remains only to gently turn the child on his back and, if necessary, once again pull up the sling cloth.

Sling scarf
Put the baby in the place of the sling where his pocket is located. Now you need to sit down in front of the baby, take the sling by the free edges and, bending slightly forward, put the baby on its back.
Then we cross the ends of the product over the chest and throw one end of the sling back over the shoulder.
We straighten the fabric of the product so that it hugs the back of the baby, and stretch the edge of the sling under the knee of the crumbs. We do the same manipulations with the second edge of the product.
In conclusion, we tighten the sling web and tie its edges in front of us.
As a result, you should get a position, as in the picture below.

May Sling
In order to wear a May Sling, you first need to tie its lower edges at the waist.
Then you need to put the crumbs on your back, gently holding the legs or ass.
Continuing to hold the baby, with your right hand you need to take the right upper strap and throw it on your shoulder.
The same actions must be done with the left hand on the left side, while continuing to insure the baby with his free hand.
When both upper straps of the May-Sling are in front, you can straighten up and pull them well.
Next, we start both straps of the product behind the back and cross them on the back of the crumbs.
Now it remains only to skip about the edges of the product under the knees of the baby and tie them in front.

When using any kind of sling, it is important that the child on her mother’s back is not thrown back. Firstly, it is inconvenient for the mother herself, and secondly, it is fraught with injury. When tying a sling, carefully make sure that the child is firmly pressed to your back. If you cannot manage it yourself, it is better to ask for help from the outside.
