Hi all,

My son is now 9 weeks old and is almost 11 lbs.

I was given a freedom sling as a gift and really want to use it, but can't work it out at all... I am thinking of throwing the thing away as its frustrating me so much!

The fabric keeps bunching up around the rings and I can't seem to adjust it easily (if at all). Is there any easy way to use a ring sling? I am sure there must be and I am just being stupid...

I have a loan of a baby bjorn, but its so fussy to put on and too many clips etc!

In the ring sling, should baby's legs be in or out? I think I would prefer to carry him tummy to tummy rather than cradle

Thanks!
