1
Lay your baby in the middle
of a
DIDYMOS
sling spread
out on a table, with the top
rail lying under her head.
2
While leaning forward,
put one sling tail over
your shoulder; at the
same time ...
3
... put your free hand
under the other sling tail
and pull the bottom rail up
to the back of your baby’s
knees.
4
Now bring the other
tail over your other
shoulder.
5
Hold your baby’s head
with one hand and, with
the other hand suppor-
ting her back, …
6
… lift your baby up in
the sling and settle her
against your chest while
leaning back slightly.
7
Pull on the top rail on each
side of your baby’s head to
tighten it - one hand always
holding your baby secure-
ly! – ...
8
… then cross the tails
behind your back ...
9
... and bring them
around to your front
again.
10
Tighten each of the
tails with one hand (the
other holding baby) by
pulling on the rails ...
11
... then cross the tails
under your baby’s bottom
and bring them under her
legs ...
12
… and around to
your back again where
you tie them.
13
Cross the fabric
over both shoulders by
flipping the rail closest
to your neck under the
outer rail and down over
your upper arm.
14
Finally, push your baby’s
legs up a bit to make sure
she is sitting in the correct
frog-leg position, her back
rounded and securely held
in the
DIDYMOS
sling.

If your sling is not long
enough to tie at your back,
you can tie the tails under
your baby’s bottom.
16
The fabric on your
back should be spread
out flat.
