After trying other baby slings.. This one works very well and easy to use. My son loves it. Every time he sees it, he knows he going to get carried, he express excitement. He can go to sleep in this one too!

My back does not hurt after using it for longer periods. I use both indoors and outdoor. The cotton is not the softest out there..but gets better with use. I LOVE that it DID NOT come with a dvd instruction manual. I am about 5.4 and the sling fits me well. It is adjustable to some extent.

Full value for $$!

This review is from: Munchkin Jelly Bean Reversible Sling S/M (Baby Product)

We bought this sling when my first child was just a week old and started using it right away. We used it until he was over a year - could have used it longer, but he did get heavy and we stopped carrying him around so much. My son liked it much much better than the Bjorn. Slept in it extremely well. I even breast-fed him in it on occasion. My second was born just a few weeks ago, and I am back to using the sling several times a day. My husband has his own, since he I need the S/M and he needs the L.

I like that the sling has no adjustable parts. It's all fabric, so it rolls up really small and you can always take it with you. It's easy to wash, too. And not too hot in the summer, like some slings with much more fabric.

It does take quite a bit of practice to learn how to position the baby in this sling, especially with a newborn. I have my own technique where I put the sling on the bed, position the baby in it and then slide my head and arm in. I find it much easier than trying to position the baby inside the sling once I am wearing it. When positioned properly, the (newborn) baby's face is facing upward, their neck and back are almost straight (so they are not scrunched up, which can be dangerous) and their feet are crossed. The trick is to put the baby in diagonally, so that only their bum is at the bottom of the sling, but the head is resting on the railing. And it helps to move around once you have them in there, motion tends to calm small babies down.

I purchased this sling for my newborn baby. In the description is says it can be used for newborns-35lbs. This is NOT true. I received the sling today and on the package and instructions that come with the sling it says 4-24 months 18lbs-35lbs. Now I don't know of any newborn that weighs 18lbs!!! I'm pissed that there is misleading information about this product! I was really excited to get this sling and use it. Now I have to send it back!
