As for nursing, it is really easy: loosen shoulder straps, loosen hip strap (if baby tall), shake a little to lower baby to milk source, lift t-shirt, baby snaps on herself, lower t-shirt to encase milk source, snap on hood (if baby sleepy), and continue shopping. :D You're very welcome. :D Hope it helps!

And as for nursing in the carrier - is it really convenient and easy to manage with the Ergo? Thanks again. REally appreciate the advise from someone that's actually 'been there, done that' :) Out of curiousity, do you find the hip-position on the Ergo useful?

Francesca: It isn't hot actually. I do recommend you get the second generation ones with the snap on hoods. A world of difference from the first. :D Interestingly information on its weight isn’t quite available online.

Great service and very fast delivery. The Patapum is slightly lighter than the Ergo but the difference is barely noticeable when it is around your waist. I'm not sure of the exact weight but can help you check it out later when I'm on the computer. :) Ann and Francesca: I got the Ergo from http://www.mummysmilk.com.

You read my mind! I was thinking of getting a proper carrier for Sean. A friend recommended the Ergo too and the Mummymilk website. Will check it out. Thanks for the review! You read my mind!
