ERGObaby Infant Insert (Heart2Heart Galaxy Print).

 (36 customer reviews)

I have read a lot of reviews saying that this is absolutely necessary for newborns who can't hold their heads up but I disagree. I bought it and found it completely useless. Now, it may be that with a really tiny baby or with a different body type than mine, it could be useful, but I don't think so and I'm only guessing at that because I am trying to imagine why so many people would think this is necessary.

My daughter was 7 pounds at birth and I used the insert once before I realized I didn't need it. The baby carrier is easily adjustable and the baby doesn't need to be able to hold her head up to fit snuggly, safely, and comfortably in it. You just adjust the carrier so that she is held snug against you and she is sitting perfectly comfortable with her head exactly where you put it, with no danger of her falling out or becoming uncomfortable.

I was happy to see this new type of insert for thr Ergo baby carrier. The old insert looked like the baby could slide out. With this, my little guy is wrapped in a cozy shell and he sits on a pillow bench. His feet are tucked between the pillow and my body. I like that this keeps him upright and laying against me and does a pretty good job supporting his head. My baby falls asleep almost instantly in this and he feels secure.

I gave it four stars because the insert makes the carrier very warm. The insert is quilted so when it is combined with both our body heat, we're both sweaty after a while. I feel lucky it is winter while I use this insert because I think we would be too warm to use this in the summer.

Other than that, this is well designed and made and I recommend it.

I was excited about the Ergo Heart to Heart insert and ordered it in preparation for the arrival of my son. With my daughter I loved wearing her using the old style insert; however, I did not have the same love for this insert. It is bulky and it makes snapping the Ergo more difficult. I used it with my son a total of 3 or 4 times until he outgrew it before the age of two months. Because he is now almost three months and still doesn't have great head control, I dug out the old insert and have felt more comfortable wearing my son with it.
