What size do you need?

Sizing is very important when purchasing a little Jo-ees sling. If the sling is too small, it is difficult to get the baby in and out and the baby will feel too tight against the body. If the sling is too large, the baby will not feel secure and will hang lower on the body causing the wearers legs to bump the baby.

Here are the instructions on how to measure to get the right fit. It’s best if you use a flexible measuring tape to get the right length. If you don't have a fabric measuring tape it's fine, just take a string and get the measurements then place it next to a ruler.

* Pregnant Women need 3 measurements:
1. Across the BACK from the left shoulder to the right hip
2. Wrapping around the body underneath the bust.
3. Wrapping around the body at the bust line (like you would measure for a bra).

* Not pregnant: Just measure across the FRONT of the body from the left shoulder to the right hip. No other measurements are required.
