Need help with using a sling

[Geordie&Bairn]

I bought a lovely black and red freedom sling from Lozzi THANKS AGAIN LOZZI

But when i put Collier in it he dissapeared in the folds of the fabric he was compleatly swamped i was sure it could be used from birth up

am i placing him in it wrong or is the sling on incorrectly im clueless as how to use it without smothering Collier

any advice will be gratefully received

some times you need to put a folded up blanket under them for the ring slings. Also make sure that you get a lot of material against you if you understand as that makes the pocket smaller. Alternatively you can put him chest to chest adjusting the sling so that the material hold his head in place. lil legs in frog position. oooo and this helped me no end. http://zolowear.com/Wearing.aspx

Ive got the same sling (the coory and carry pouch sling) and I think its brilliant. I would try the folded blanket under him so he's not too lost in it.
Logan was 9lb when I first put him in his and he's always been fine so collier will fill it up before you know it
