I got my ERGO today!!

Not a terribly important post but a bit of excitement for me;
My Chocolate coloured Organic ERGO came today & I am in LOVE!!

Punky could take it or leave it but even that is better to her previous reaction to any carrier I've had her in (ie screaming the house down & then some) AND she went to sleep THREE times in it!! :dance: (Yes I was wearing it around the house, and to the shop, and around the house... as soon as I got it... what's it to you?! :lol:)

I'm SO excited that I can catch a bus if I want to, or look in opshops.... oh the possabilites!!! :D

Simply cannot wait until she is big enough for the back carry too, I know she'll love it!

WOOHOO for you hun.

I am waiting ever so (NOT) patiently for my Ergo to arrive too. I only ordered it on Saturday though. Would be nice to have it today, I am taking the kids to a concert and no prams allowed.

Fingers crossed for you that your little Pumpkin starts to love her Ergo that bit more.

ooo congratulations :)

I LOVE ours too. Hard to go clothes shopping cause you can't try stuff on though LOL.

My DS is impossible at the scream-o-clock time of day and DH has taken to getting home from work and taking him for walks in it which has been a lifesaver for me! Loveeee the ergo.

Sounds great! So you're finding it comfy in the front carry? I've heard they are better in the back carry and not so comfy for the front so I was thinking of getting a Pikkolo instead...

Woo hoo how exciting.

Trish I am waiting for mine too, I also ordered it on Saturday night.

It's fine for the front carry so far but am soooooooo looking forward to when she is big enough for the back carry - not too long to go!

Ordered a backpack for it that was supposed to get here today but the parcels were mixed up & I got somebody else's 'Mummy Hooks' & someone is getting my backpack!! *sobs* Hopefully it will all be fixed up soon. I have been using it at every opportunity - like yesterday I had a VERY overtired baby & I thought I'd give the ergo a go just because I could :) and because nothing else was working & she feel asleep in minutes!! Woot!

I didn't even know about the Pikkolo until after I'd ordered my ergo but they look good. Probably would have still got the ergo at this point however, just loving it!!

It's a hard decision- good to hear you love it so much!! Does the backpack attach on to it so you carry both on your back at the same time?

Katie, did you order through Bubblebubs too ? I wonder how long they will take to get them out.

Trish yep I ordered through bubblebubs too, I seen the thread on Saturday night and since I had just sold my HAB DH said I could get my ergo. I am constantly checking my front door for a package lol.

ren - you can wear it as a backpack on it's own or attach it to the back of the ergo - got mine re-sent & it arrived today, looks snazzy!!

Trish & Ozstar - I couldn't believe it when I saw the bubblebubs sale - it's always the way when you've just bought something, it's on sale elsewhere!! Mind you, mine is one of the organic ones & was on special but still, not as cheap as you lucky ducks!!

i got mine cheap from sunshine tots :)

Sorry to hijack this thread but Trish did you get your ergo yet? I am just about to email them and see if mine was posted. I was really hoping to have it by the weekend :(

Nope haven't got mine yet either. On Bubblebubs home page it says that there may be a delay with the orders, but it would be nice to know just how long the delay is.

I was going to email them today too but didn't get around to it. Let me know if you get a reply from them.

Out of curiosity, how much did you guys get them for?

Willow we paid $120.

Trish I have emailed them, I remember seeing that they would be a while it would be nice of the order confirmation had some sort of note. Hopefully they get back to me with a time frame and I'll let you know.

Wow, that is a good price!

you will get an email from them stating that fluffy mail is on the way when it has been dispatched if that helps!!

Thanks AJP thats great.

you'll sooo happy when you get yours!! i love ours!!

Sorry to steal your thread again Qm.

Katie, did you end up emailing them ? If so did you get a response ? I emailed them this morning and am waiting to hear back from them. I don't mind a slight delay, but to not at all be told what is going on after handing over that sort of money....

Trish I emailed them and still havent got a response yet. I am with you and don't mind a delay but would like to know whats going on and what sort of time frame they are expecting. DH isn't happy that they charge your credit card straight away and then expect you to sit around waiting with no information.

Yes I am waiting for that to start with my DP too. Esp as it was his CC. When did you email them ? Would have been nice to get a response back pretty quickly.

I emailed them on Friday afternoon. I might give them a call this afternoon if I havent heard back from them. I can't wait to use it.

Happy half birthday to Abbey too.

Great idea. Thanks for that. And happy 6 months to Logan too. Goes so fast doesn't it :D

Lmao my ticker is wrong, Logan is nearly 9 months lol. Betetr fix it. Your right though it does go so fast.
Thanks for the PM too, I didnt get an email from them yet.

Well then Happy 8 months to Logan ;)

Wonder why you haven't heard from them. Obviously I am more special. LOL :D

Yay I have fluffy mail, I am so excited my Ergo is finally on the way.
LMAO at you being more special then me, they obviously dont know me very well then ;) lol.

That's right huni. Mine is on it's way too. Now let teh post man stalking begin. You will get yours sooner. Wish they used over night couriers ;)

Yay woo hoo I just got my Ergo.

Your just a tease ;)

So does that mean their doing overnight postage ?? Prob not to NSW.

I don't think it was overnight, but it was registered. I bet you get yours tomorrow.
I am off to watch the DVD and then hit the shops.

Katie, how did you find it ?

I finally got mine today. I tried it on when Abbey woke up, have hung the washing out with her in it and now she's fast asleep. Still in the ergo. I can definately still feel her weight on my shoulders. But not as bad as some of the other carriers.

QM, how are you finding yours ? Does bub enjoy it ?

can i please ask you guys where to get the cheapest ergos from?
my friend borrowed mine and now wants to buy one. i paid $160 for mine a few months ago!

Gracie, I asked the same thing in my thread. Ergo's are they "just that good ?"

I got mine from bubblebubs for $119 with free postage but that was a sale.

thanks trish, i looked on bubblebubs but i couldn't find any ergos on there.
i'll keep looking :)

Hey Trish, firstly woo hoo on getting your ergo! I have worn DS on my hip twice at the shops, my shoulder did get a little sore. I wore him around the house on the front and had no probs.

Hey Trish - how is your ergo going now? Katie?

I still *heart* mine, Punky has days where she loves it & days where she doesn't but usually we get out & about with minimum fuss. So cool to be able to catch a bus lol.

We love it. Although sometimes if Abbey is fussing and hungry she goes beserk being so close to my boobs and not getting a feed.

Punky does that too!! It took me a couple of times to figure it out - I mistakenly thought she didn't like the carrier to start with, silly mummy!! Have you tried her in the back carry?

No I haven't tried her that way yet. I think she is still too small to go that way. I like to have her where I can see her. She settles most of the time after a little while. I just jiggle around like an idiot and keep shoving her dummy back in. LOL.DP has even had a turn at walking with her in it, and she promptly fell to sleep.
