22 . To check that your wrap is securely tied, place both hands
inside the wrap, put your thumbs on to your chest and bring your
hands into prayer position. Now try to move your hands away
from your body. You should be able to stretch your hands out
enough and keep your thumbs on your chest. If you can’t do this,
the wrap is probably too tight. If your thumbs come away from
your chest too easily, the wrap is way too loose. Therefore, tighten
or loosen accordingly.
23 . You’re almost ready to place baby in the wrap. Before you
do so, check that the fabric is comfortable across your back and
shoulders and that there are no twists. Then lower the support
band giving you easy access to the cross you created earlier.
24 . Remember which shoulder strap is on the outside (the upper/
outer shoulder strap), as baby is always first positioned on this
shoulder.
25 . Pick baby up and place them in the burping position on to
the upper/outer shoulder strap with their weight resting against
your shoulder.
26 – 27 . Support baby in that hand and with your other hand
locate the lower/inner shoulder strap coming from the other
shoulder. Reach your hand underneath it and lift to make
space to slide one of baby’s legs through.
