But it's now super easy to put on! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766526 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:12:37 +0000 sslm 766526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: totally looking for that tomorrow!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766510 Tue, 07 May 2013 20:02:19 +0000 lavender 766510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can YouTube it, ergo has their own channel and shows you all the different ways </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766506 Tue, 07 May 2013 19:59:21 +0000 shopaholic 766506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: Wait - WHAT?! I'm going to check mine right now!!!<br /> * ETA: OMG, I feel like the biggest dork for never realizing that!!! Can't wait to try it later with K!</p> <p>@sslm: I always do the waist buckle first, put baby in the infant insert, put the infant insert with baby close to me. This is the tricky part, I usually clip the back strap first and then duck my head in between the strap and baby. :/ It's the only way I can reach by myself so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766426 Tue, 07 May 2013 18:49:41 +0000 hilsy85 766426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The back shoulder clip is on runners, so you can move it higher t make it easier to clip (does that make sense?). I had to have someone at a store show me how it worked! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766415 Tue, 07 May 2013 18:40:41 +0000 MamaBehr 766415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It takes some getting use to, especially with the infant insert. But I always do the waist first and then put baby in and then arms and then do the upper back buckle. And, I would put DS in the infant insert first and then do the waist buckle etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-get-your-ergo-on#post-766410 Tue, 07 May 2013 18:35:18 +0000 sslm 766410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you put the whole thing on and then somehow put LO in it? Or do you only partially put it on and finish once LO is in there?</p> <p>I tried it with the infant insert today but I couldn't reach enough to snap the chest/shoulder level clip by myself... Wondering if there's a trick to it? </p>
