I've been using the ergo with newborn insert for q few days now but have run into a bit of a pickle. Whenever I have it on, although all the straps are as tight as they'll go, the straps still gape and slide down my shoulders.


What am I doing wrong?! Answers on a postcard please... Or in this thread (life when Husband goes back to work depends on the Ergo, am crap With my moby wrap and small small baby.

I know the clip you mean - it's done up and done up tight! Argh, damn my weird posture and body!


SB: thanks for the offer! I'm going to have a good look at the ergo tomorrow and see if I can do a bit of problem solving. If I still can't work out what I'm doing wrong (ergo wise, not parenting wise, that's another thread...) then I'd love to borrow it! Lex loves being worn, which ia fine but not great when all you want is a shower. Ha!

Hmm, have you got the straps high enough? If reaching to do up yourself I'd think you must have, but guessing you may still have hubby at home & helping you?


This really shouldn't be happening so it sounds like something isn't right. Hard to say without seeing you in it though.

Hey I used to have a similar problem,usually after hubbie had used the ergo and loosened all the straps...you've probably done this, but perhaps try sliding the back straps up higher (the ones with the clasp), or tighten the underarm straps as far as possible.


Know what you mean about showers, and also when they fall asleep on you when you haven't gotten dressed yet and screamy toddler needs a trip to the park...


Happy to help in person if you don't know any other ergo-users!


All best x

    • We used Tom King recently to repair two light switches and have used him in the past for moving a plug socket. He's a lovely guy as well as the utmost professional. Very reliable and helpful, talks you through what's needed with a repair and charges reasonable rates, especially as some electricians charge the earth in this area now. Highly recommended!

    • Aria and this team replaced 2 showers in my house. He helped me too source all of the correct parts, and then carried out a challenging job of removing the old showers, replacing with new and then retiling the areas. His communications and expertise were brilliant throughout and he charged a very fair fee for carrying out the works. Hes just a very nice, friendly and patient guy to deal with. I would recommend him to anyone needing work done. Thank you again
