Although this carry is not recommended for long periods it is perfectly viable if done correctly and as long as baby is happy. The sling is tied on in the same way as for front facing in, but baby is held the other way around and straps are placed under baby's arms. Baby's legs should be bent at the hips and knees and the bum positioned lower than the knees. Baby should be leaning backwards against your chest. You may need to fold the sling at the waist straps before putting it on to make the body shorter.
