Default Nursing in sling

I finally figured it out. I've been trying to get the hang
of the snuggle hold, since she likes to be more upright. So
I put her in, and we walked around for a little bit trying
to get us both comfy. Eventually I noticed her nose was
right at nipple level, pulled up my shirt, and shoved her
on. Hands-free is ok but not great. One-handed is as good
as our normal (cross-cradle, sitting with pillow, also
one-handed) position. Don't even have to flip her upright
to burp (although if she spits, my whole front plus sling
will need washing). And the best part is, I can walk around
while I nurse!

I still can't visualize how she could nurse in one of the
lying-down sling positions, but we'll either figure it out,
or find something else that works for us.
