    Cass - I don't have a HAB (as we have already talked about) but I have worn Miss M in the Ergo for up to 2 or 3 hours at a time with no pain. And coming from someone with a bad back - that's amazing. I had a Tomy carrier before that hurt after about half an hour - it pulled terribly on my shoulders.

    yes i can wear the ergo comfortably for hours. it distributes the weight very evenly across your back.

    I have both the HAB and the ergo. I would say that the ergo is just as (if not more) comfortable as the HAB. I found as my DS got heavier he started to slip down in the HAB and I would have to keep readjusting it...haven't had this problem with the ergo.
    The HAB is GREAT for newborns and them progress to the ergo as they get older.

    I wear ds in the ergo loads, even after a couple of hours its still comfy. I have actually found it even better now i can wear him on my back too

    Thanks for your feedback Marlene, I loved the HAB when Oskar was tiny but it was such a pain that it really ended up hardly used *sighs*. I haven't even bothered getting it out for Elijah but the feedback on the Ergo sounds good and I tried one on and heaps easier and faster to use.

    I decided to get the ERGO and am really glad I did. First time I used it twice in the one day and Elijah went from the car into it, had his hearing test (in it) back into the car, out and into the shops and stayed asleep the whole time. Next day I used it at the shops when he got grizzly and he went to sleep within minutes!

    LOVE IT.. very easy to use compared to the HAB and felt great on Thanks for your help ladies
