 Our son loves it!!! October 19, 2009

We have been so thankful for the heart-2-heart insert as our son has loved his time spent in it. He's only 4 days old and the insert is just perfect for his little body. It's supportive and comfortable for him. He sleeps like a champ whenever he's in it :-) We are grateful that Ergo came out with this new insert as we were hearing that their previous insert was not really working with newborns.

I love this new insert. My little girl is almost 12 lbs at 3 months and we've been using a different carrier by Lillebaby. Now she wants to be upright so we tried the ergo baby out for the first time. The other insert kept her wrapped up but I felt like she was constantly sliding down. This insert is great! She sits much higher in the carrier and can even look around now. She usually falls asleep after a while in the carrier because she's so comfortable. It doesn't overheat her like the other infant insert. The only downside about this is that she drools on me because she puts her head on my chest to sleep. I'm sure that will change once she gets older and for now I just put a burp cloth down which works just fine. I think she'll easily make it with this insert to 5 months. Well worth the money. I actually bought mine at [...] though so I could get the galaxy print which is adorable.

I have a 3-month old who loved being carried around in the Moby wrap, but it can be a bit of a hassle to put that wrap on. I wanted to be able to use my Ergo, but couldn't get him comfy in it sitting sideways, he likes to be upright. This is perfect, the cushion under the bottom lifts him up just the right amount, so the back of the carrier is just at shoulder level, and his little legs sit at right angles, so he's not putting all his weight on his crotch. The back of the insert can be folded down over the Ergo, or propped up. When he's sleeping, I prop it up, when he's awake & wants to look around I fold it down. This is a good quality item, and worth the $$ so you can use your Ergo while your babe is little. I often see cloth items and figure out how I could sew them myself, but this is not one of them. I recommend buying this, and I would prefer this over the old Ergo infant insert.
Just to add, the first 4 times I tried using this, my baby fussed and didn't like it. But I kept trying it, and found that by catching him in a good mood (instead of trying to put him in when he was fussy) we were able to get him used to it, and now he loves it.
I love it, the baby loves it! July 8, 2010

I was a little skeptical after reading some reviews of the infant insert, but I decided to try it out anyway. I have used the Bjorn and various maya type slings, and this is by far the most comfortable carrier. I'm prone to plugged ducts and mastitis, and this carrier with the insert puts no pressure on my chest, so it's great in that regard.
I started using the infant insert when my newest was almost 3 weeks old. It was a little hard to figure out where her feet and legs go at first, and she was really uncomfortable when I tried to splay them out and have her feet poke out the sides. That's definitely not the way to do it with such a little baby. I found that the trick is to have her knees up following the line of the fabric just along the inside of the padding and her feet almost touching and down at the V shaped base. You may think they're getting squished but she doesn't complain at all so it must be comfortable for her.
I also couldn't figure out whether she was supposed to have her head resting on the top edge, kind of sitting away from my body or resting on my chest. She took care of that for me. When she's awake her head is up and she's peering around. When she gets tired she puts her head down on my chest and rests very comfortably.
The hotness factor was also something I read about. My daughter was born in mid June and we live in Maryland, where it's pretty hot and humid in the summer. Yes, the insert is hot. But so is the Bjorn, and so are slings. I just put her in a onesie and we're both a little damp on the chest when she comes out. No big deal, really. I think the pros outweigh the one con that it's hot.
So it does take a little fiddling to get it just right, but once you do it's super comfortable for you as the wearer, and a nice little nest for the baby to ride around in. I definitely recommend it!

This insert made it possible for us to use the Ergo with our newborn. Because he loves being carried around in this, we use it several times a day. It is warm & comfortable for him. We have seen the older type insert, and this is MUCH better, allows for proper positioning & stability. My one complaint is the strap is so loose, it doesn't stay tightened, which makes it hard to get the baby to stay still in order to be placed in the carrier.
