<<Slings do come in sizes for height of mom, at least the Over the
Shoulder
> Baby Holder brand and Parenting Concepts ones (no financial interest in
> either).>>

with those slings, weight/girth/chest size I find are more accurate
indicators of correct size than correct height.  one mom came to me for
help with her sling, she had the large b/c she was six feet tall,
however, she was extremely thin with small breasts, she couldn't get her
daughter high enough in the sling to hold her comfortably, let alone
nurse her.

on the flip size,   I find that a M in the padded slings fits all but
the thin thin thinnest of people.  and that a  large is generally not
needed unless a person quite large.
