Nikki,

When I lived in central Africa, where I learned to carry my babies in a traditional sling (a long piece of material) the babies are splayed against the mother's back (or chest) in an upright position. It was easy to do/use and cost the length of about 2-3 yds of fabric. I used this method with both of my children.
