Ds suddenly not liking hotsling?

Ds is 11 weeks tomorrow and suddenly doesn't like to be in the hotsling. I mostly use the craddle hold but occasionally will try the kangaroo hold but it really doesn't matter as he screams regardless. Dh looked at me last night while I was trying to settle him in there and asked why I continue to torture him
. I have moved back into my ring sling almost 100% and I'm so sad because I loved my hotsling. Is he outgrowing those holds. He holds his head okay but not 100%. I have tried to get ds in the tummy to tummy in the hotsling as this is how I wear him in the ring sling. But he doesn't get the tight security in it and usually wont settle in that position either. I do flip the shoulder and that helps but its not as tight as my ring sling. Are we just in between positions for this sling? Anyone get the t2t to work in a hotsling? Which shoulder do you use for it, dominate or non? Any other suggestions? Please tell me I don't already have to retire my hotsling!

it sounds like you might just be in-between positions. go with the ringsling for a few weeks and then try again
