My baby seems uncomfortable and fussy in my sling. Any suggestions?

Sure! The first thing you can check is to make sure that your HugaMonkey tag is on the back of your shoulder, not on top. This will bring the pouch around and just be a better fit for your baby. The next thing you can check is to make sure that your baby's bum is in the seam of the sling when you put him in (like the baby in the organic sling picture). The woman in the same pic is the way you want your sling to lay and hit on you as well.

If your baby is older look at the way you are holding him. He may just prefer to look out more or be in a different position. Look again at the organic model and notice how the baby is sitting. He can look out and is much more content. If your baby's bum is past the seam in your sling he may be in it too low and as a result, not able to see.  Sizing is a huge factor as well! If your sling is sitting on or below your hips with your baby inside it is too big. If you are still unsure what size is best for you and your baby, you could order two sizes, compare the two and then return the size that doesn't fit right for a complete refund (you would just be out the cost to mail the sling back). You can always contact us at sales@hugamonkey.com as well. We'd love to help!
