2. Place baby high up on your shoulder opposite the rings and facing you. Continue to support the baby until the baby sling is secured.
Tip: ~ Cross the baby's legs, holding them in one hand so that it is easier to get the baby into the baby sling.

3. Lower your baby into the baby sling. Pull up on the bottom ring to loosen the sling if it is too tight for the baby to get in. Be sure to contine to support your baby's weight while doing this.

4. Reach into the sling from the side and gently shift your baby to the side so that his head is AWAY from the ring. His feet and legs can be hanging out of the sling for older babies. Younger babies should have their legs crossed and tucked inside the baby sling.
Ensure that the inner rail of your sling is always between you and your baby. Tighten the inner and outer rails of the baby sling until the baby is secure and the baby sling is hugging the baby, with no excess cloth around you or baby.
Congratulations! You have mastered the Reclining Cradle Hold using the baby sling!
