No doubt this is a baby boy, right?
This is Jennifer with her baby, as a newborn to 2 mos I believe. Yes, he is a big boy. He started out right at 9 lbs...5 weeks early! This shows you several ways to carry with this sling. And in a couple of months, we will probably see a picture of him sitting up in it.

Sure enough, one month later, here he is enjoying the Jenks aquarium with mom.

MAI TAI SLING (prounounced may-tie) This is a Mai Tai Sling. Not usually for use with preemies or newborns. Doesn't work well with a doll either, but haven't had time to take pics with my little Mila model yet. =)
Normally, these ties would not cross a baby's legs like this, but my doll wouldn't cooperate (she has no booty to wrap under), so I had to modify her tie. The
pieces that come under a real baby's legs are padded for comfort. This is the purple you can see wrapped around the mannequin's waist.
The straps over mom's shoulders are padded for comfort also.
The little boy below is so darn cute, I have him posted everywhere! He just couldn't stop smiling! Momma sent me a note with this pic, saying they used the sling that day & baby just loves it!

Another pic of my niece, Mila. She doesn't look like a little "ginnie-pig", does she? But most of my creations get modeled and/or tried out on her first. She has been a wonderful, patient little helper!
