Tightening straps on TWE.

I can't get the straps tight enough for dd3 without layers!
I've been pulling the strap by her feet but it seems to be as far as it will go. I can't believe not wearing a fleece/cardi makes that much difference.
Any suggestions?

Will try that thanks.

She's at the bottom end of the size range but has been fine for the last 3 months so I think it must be something like that.

Didn't work. The metal bit that joins the straps to the tightening strap is at its smallest point, so I guess the straps are.
Will phone the car safety people tomorrow & ask advice.
