I had her in the "adventure" position which is facing outwards with the tie around the middle. She was happy the whole time because she could look around and see everything, she actually fell asleep in the end and I turned her around into the "hug" position facing me sort of like HUB and she slept the rest of the time. It's usually a nightmare shopping because I also have a four year old running around but it was great being able to keep the baby asleep as well as chase after her.
