Ergo baby carriers have come up with a new system to carry infants.  If you read my other reviews about Ergo products you will see that I am a big fan of their carrier, but really didn’t like their previous infant insert.  Recently, they came up with a new system called Heart to Heart.  It enables you to use your regular Ergo carrier and convert it to an infant carrier for the few months that your child cannot fit into the regular Ergo.  Heart to Heart is an insert that keeps your child in an upright position and does not place any strain on their hips.  It also keeps your babies’ chest close to yours (Heart to Heart) which is a good thing.  Although Heart to Heart is a vast improvement over their infant insert, it is still quite lumpy and bulky.  It adds warmth to your baby carry system which can be great in winter but not in the summer, since Ergo packs are already kind of warm.  Heart to Heart is easy to use and place into the carrier but I have a hard time clipping the strap in the back on my own.  If you are looking to save money, then I do really recommend you get the Ergo and the Heart to Heart and deal with the not so perfect few months and then enjoy the luxury of the Ergo.  If you are not so cash strapped, I suggest you go for another system (like the Moby wrap) to carry your newborn and then switch to the Ergo when they are six months old.  I really would not want you to miss out on the great advantages of the Ergo.
