I really didn't get on with this sling. When my daughter was newborn she got enveloped in the fold of material, couldn't see out and generally seemed unhappy in it. Just tried it again, baby now 3 months. Even worse, she nearly fell out as she's a wriggly baby. Have reverted to my Baby Bjorn even though it makes my back ache after a while.

I bought the tri-cotti as a second baby carrier, after my disappointment from the front baby carrier which put a lot of strain on my shoulders. I found the tri-cotti comfortable at first, the weight disribution on the fabric feels better, so I didn't feel it on the shoulders for a while. My baby looked snug, and I liked being able to put him in the cuddly position for sleeping, he also liked the tummy to tummy position. HOWEVER, I found it less comfortable when the baby was 4 months old. When he is active he moves around freely, so it doesn't feel safe. On the facing out position he pulls forward and streches the fabric on the shoulders, or moves to one side, putting strain on one shoulder, and I have to readjust all the time. The whole thing is not that fun anymore and I stopped using it. I think 3 months use for a product worth £44 is not enough. Also my husband couldn't use it as we are not the same size. I bought my third carrier - a wraparound sling, which we can bought use! my baby is 7 months old now and I still don't feel any pain of carrying him in the wraaround! Also as there are more layers of fabric it feels much safer then the tri-cotti.
