Tip of the day

Never ask a child IF they need the loo... moodlum

Quote of the week

CaptainNancy's (admirably succinct) family rules: "Don't be a dingbat/duffer. Keep calm and carry on. Dream big. Shut up and get on with it."

Recipe of the week

Carmenere's cinder toffee: sweet, sticky, made-in-five-minutes toffee squares that'll spark off a few 'yums' among the 'oohs' and 'aahs' of your little fireworks-watchers.

I bought an Ergo Baby when my son was already a year old, as he was too heavy for our first sling, and I could see a day coming when he would be able to walk, but not far, and who wants to take an unneeded pushchair around everywhere?

I am using the sling now to walk to the park with him, so that he and I are both free to roam over the grass. Also, with the sling, I can get our local bus, which often refuses to take us with the pushchair.

My son now tops 11kg, and it is still comfortable to carry him on my front. When he gets a bit taller, I will wear him on my back.

The sling has a very handy zip pocket, and the material is robust. I'm very pleased with it.

I am surprised this rating is as low as it is. I am a massive fan of Ergo Baby Carrier. With the straps across the hips it means that the weight of baby is not just across shoulders and back. I find it really comfortable and although it took a few goes to get the hang of, it is so simple to use now. I would recommend to anyone!

I actually have a manduca, but it exactly the same as the ergo. It's great once baby is big enough (about 5 months in my one's case). really easy on the back. Love it!

A super carrier. Had used a baby bjorn with my first child,but the ergo suited from birth for the second. My daughter is about to have her third birthday, and weighs three stone...its still brilliant. I carried her for two hours on a walk the other day, and not a twinge from my back. Practice lots at the beginning and you'll never look back.
