Now that I think back (how we forget!) I remember now that it did have to be quite tight before bub went in. Otherwise I could never get it tight enough for him to be high up.

Ditto, Honeybee. Thanks for the post MadB, I'll have one more crack at it before it is 'retired'.

Thanks again all, but I just can't get it to work. She's up high and firm, with straps spread wide, but I can't get the diamond low on my back without the rings comign right round under her
I've reverted to the hug-a-bub.

I also stopped with the CC because of that. I personally didn't like the HAB so bought a wrap and an Ergo and use them interchangeably.

I have an ergo for when she's bigger

Can you move the rings up the sling so they sit closer to your body? I've always had them tucked into my sides

And wanted to add - I watched the CC instruction DVD to make sure I was using it right and still had discomfort. At one point it looked as though one my discs was bulging in my back after using the CC
