Putting your baby in the Cargo Sling
•Adjust the strapping to a proper fit before placing baby into carrier.
•Always put the carrier on your body AFTER putting baby in.
•Place the carrier on a secure surface that is wide and flat (such as a bed or changing table) keeping it away from the surface’s edge.
•Position the front of the carrier (the Cool Flow™ Breathable Mesh closest to your body) toward your free arm – the arm you won’t be sliding into the shoulder harness.
•Carefully support your baby’s head and back while you gently position him in the carrier. Be sure to place your baby’s head at the front of the carrier for proper headrest support and access to the Cool Flow™ Breathable Mesh.
•Keep your free hand under the headrest to support your baby’s head and neck as you slide the carrier over your opposite arm and your head.
•Let the carrier come to rest securely on your shoulder as you stand up.
•Once the carrier is securely in place, it will not be necessary to hold your baby with your hands and arms. However, you will probably feel more comfortable keeping one hand under your baby until you get used to the feel of the carrier.
Important: Check frequently to be certain that your baby is correctly positioned and has plenty of airflow around his head and face for proper breathing.
