Helpful Sizing Hints to ensure you get the perfect fit!

Shoulder to hip measurement.
To get your shoulder to hip measurement, use a soft tape measure. Take tape from the outer edge of one shoulder (where your t-shirt seam meets) across your belly to the opposite hipbone. Your hipbone will be close to level with your belly button. This measurement is in inches and should be in the 20’s.
Your measurement should fall close to your clothing size on our sizing chart. It may be slightly different due to your torso length. Get the size that fits your shoulder to hip measurement.
Remember the pouch needs to fit the wearer NOT the baby. However if your baby weighs more than 14lbs (and your not yet using the HIP CARRY) and your in between 2 sizes then get the bigger size.

Where do you carry your weight?
The width around your torso affects how the baby pouch will fit. If you tend to carry most of your weight around your torso then you should lean towards a bigger size.

Do you have broad shoulders or a large chest?
If you do you may require a larger size baby pouch. People with narrow shoulders may want to consider a smaller size.

Are you pregnant?
If you are purchasing the baby pouch whilst pregnant please keep in mind that the pouch will not fit properly until after you've had your baby. Your shoulder to hip measurement will not be accurate when pregnant. If deciding a size whilst your showing you can have someone help you take the correct measurement. They can take the same shoulder to hip measurement across your back. Make sure they come all the way around to your hipbone at the front side.

My babies now older so I’m switching to the hip carry.
Contrary to popular belief switching to the hip carry with a bigger baby actually takes less room in the pouch. If you feel your beloved pouch is a little too big now, we have a tip for you. You can pull the top layer of fabric on your shoulder away from your neck towards your outer shoulder this will give baby added snugness. It also looks great showing the reversible side of your BubSnug.
