Check out the video on this page on how to use it. It's as easy to use as wearing a shirt but you step on it, rather than wearing it on top of your head. So you put it on below like a skirt, pull it up, and adjust the garment on your center.  You can then choose to have the lengthy part or "skirt" cover your hips and tummy, acting as a sort of body shaper. Or you can leave it and just use it as additional support after your baby is tucked comfortably in the carrier. So after adjusting the garment comfortably, you just wear the left shoulder wing, then you get your baby and place them on your chest in a burping position.   Then you tuck them in the inner pouch. You can choose to have their feet in or feet out, depending on their age and size. Then you wear the right shoulder wing, tighten it by tying the tail across your body, then you can choose to lift the "skirt" as additional support and you're done!
