RE: I am zolo sling challenged!
What hold are you trying to use? It sounds like you need to adjust the top of the sling a little tighter. Try pulling on just the top piece of fabric, the part that goes around the upper part of her body. Does that make sense?
Also, I would really recommend you call Darien at zolowear and see if she can walk you through it over the phone. I know she has done that for many people.
