I have a medium coorie sling for DD, but I think it might be too big. I will probably order a small one to see if it is any better (I started off with a large and they were very good about exchanging it). I was just wandering what size coorie other people had. I am 5' 6" and about 9 stone. DD is 5 weeks and 11 lbs. It says in the instructions that if baby can be tipped into sling easily it is too big, and this seems to be the case with DD. On the other hand maybe my technique is wrong.

Aren't there measuring instructions on the site?

MP, I have a small Corrie sling. I am 5 ft, 7.5 stone, petite build. The sling seems to hang down around my hips, so not around the stomach like the site suggests. It is quite tricky to get ds in it. But ds (12 pounds) does not tolerate the sling for long periods, so the fact that it does not fit perfectly is fine.

The small size might be just right for you.

I read the measuring instructions, but I am not a confident measurer - can never measure myself for bras and things. thanks for replies. I think I might try a small.

Def a small, or maybe XS if you can get it. I'm 5ft4" and size 18 and I take a small. Fleece stretches.
