Hotsling's Sizing
Correct sizing for pouch slings is essential for the happiness of both mom/dad and baby. To measure from shoulder to hip: use a soft tape measure and start at the outer corner of your shoulder and measure diagonally across your body down to your hip bone. The number in inches should be in the 20s or between 60 - 80 in centimeters. Good Fit = lowest point of pouch in the pink zone (see illustration to the left).

Too Small: feels uncomfortably tight, digs into baby's legs, it's crazy hard to get baby in.
Too Big: baby feels insecure, your legs bump the baby as you walk, your back aches after a short time, sling slips off your shoulder.
