    i got the standard one too, i can see how it will get really hot in summer already but i guess if bubs is just in nappy and singlet it should be ok.

    just wondering (and kinda hijacking) the ergo on the instruction DVD is different to the one i got. there are some D rings which the hood attaches to when not in use but i dont have the D rings on mine is that just cause it is an updated version or something.

    also, can you use the accessories on both kinds of ergo's? (and do normal baby shops sell the accessories, the backpack looks cool and the little bum bag thingy)

    Hollo - yup you can use accessories in both types - and they are avaiable in baby shops (thats where I got my original one from!)

    There should have been a sticker or a piece of paper in your Ergo box about it being slightly different - about the D rings changing etc - because when I got my original one, thats what it came with. If not, google for instructional dvd's if you are not sure how it works now.

    Or if you are coming to the meet up tomorrow I can show you

    nope not coming tomorrow, we are in full on mothers group kids birthday season. every weekend in august is booked with parties! LOL

    nope, i didnt see the piece of paper either... i just tuck the hood into that pocket but it looks a bit messy. its pretty easy to use (well i think i am using it properly LOL)

    Yeah the hood does store in the pocket part, I used to just roll mine up. I *think* from memory, what changed is that they used to be rings there on the shoulders, and then they went to snaps - or something like that - can't remember cos I never had an original one. Believe me, snaps are much better - the rings on the ergo sport are a tad annoying!!

    oh yeah i am loving the snaps! they are really easy. the DVD showed the D rings on the sides too so that the hood can be strapped down when not in use, just looks nicer. but the pocket is ok.

    do you/ will you be selling the accessories mel?
