Question which side do you wear

your sling?? or rather over which shoulder?? I normally wore mine over the left, I'm right handed and am thinking about training myself to wear it over the right shoulder this time

I'm right handed- and wear it over my right shoulder- I'd love to wear it over my left as my right shoulder is messed up, but I feel so off balance when I switch it around

I'm right-handed and put the pouch on my right shoulder so the baby is on my left hip, leaving my right hand free.

I wear it on both sides to balance myself out.

When using the Maya pouch, I had it on my left shoulder and now that he's sitting in it on my hip it's on my right shoulder because it feels weird the other way.

I wear it on my right shoulder mainly so baby sits on my left hip. Although most of the time my dd wants to sit in front of me I can use either shoulder but feel more comfortable on the right.

I'm right handed.

My home-made ring sling (Maya-style) - I wear it on my right shoulder.
My Heart-to-Heart sling (padded and small) - I wear on my left shoulder, it doesn't fit the same on my right.

I just got a "FrankenKozy" (mei tei) - which goes over both shoulders.

Same here. I have tried to wear him the other way and it feels weird, LOL.
