The Sling-a-saurus

Hmmm. Not quite. Supposed to be more Thesaurus than Stegasaurus (and yes I know technically that's a Triceratops but run with the analogy!) but we like her so she can stay. This is just the central point for what I hope will be a guide to help those of you who are a bit confused by this babywearing malarky.
