RE: Just got my first sling- Anyone else have this problem with baby?
Sarah did this initially with slings (she was 10 months old at the time). As she got used to riding in slings, she got less squirmier with it, although there are occasional days when she is just too squirmy to wear.
And make sure she is in the sling properly and is comfortable. She should be sitting deeply in the pocket of the sling, with her knees higher than her butt. And the fabric of the pocket should be all the way to the back of her knees and all the way to her armpits.
What type of sling are you using?
