finally have some action shots in the Ellaroo! Excuse the dirty mirror and dodgy picture, he wouldnt stop wriggling lol

It's still a bit weird though cause its so thin, I'm not convinced *yet* I still prefer my Storch

LOVE your homemade MT!!!
here is us on our first attempt at a back carry! Ruby is getting frustrated facing me, so thought it was time to try it out.. tricky, but comfy once she was up there! she loved it!
(PLEASE excuse the terrible mess in my living room! it looks worse that it was!)

does it look ok? i noticed after that i had a twisted strap, but apart from that? she insists on having her arms out tho.. i feel more secure with them in tho...

The only problem I can see if her legs, her knees need to be higher than her bum. other than that it looks fab!

 

[lulu0504]

Yep I agree with jayleigh, she needs to be 'seated' in the MT. Could it be a bit small for her now? Is it a fbs? If so they are notoriously short in the body which wouldn't give a lot of room for her bum to sit in. She looks really happy in there though!

 

[JayleighAnn]

Arggh something is going on this week, I can't get comfy in anything! My BH keeps digging in at the waist and the shoulder straps are slipping and trying to neck me, my Storch is digging in at the waist and my Ellaroo is just horrible.
I'm having such a rubbish week, every time I put him in one its not comfy, so I put him in the pushchair and he screams cause he hates it I just want to go back to bed!

Thanks guys, i got the pattern from a thread on here and the doggy material is from hobby craft! The only downside to making yrself is i found 4 pins i forgot to take out! whoops! x

 

[NIfirsttimer]

thanks girls! by seated do you mean bouncing her a bit before i tie? i thought something like that was up from looking at the pics, its like the patterned bit should come up further from her butt, and finish higher up her shoulders...
tried it again today and think i got it a bit better, hard to get it right when you cant see your behind properly lol!
tying her on my front is just second nature now, and i get her perfect every time, so i guess its just going to take me a good few attempts to get there with the back carry...

jayleigh when you say knees higher than butt... how do you get that? has anyone got a pic?

thanks ladies! ;-)

 

[JayleighAnn]

I've not got any of me, but if you google mei tai back carry there is loads of videos and picture instructions. She just needs to look more seated rather than dangly.
The only picture I have is this one, but its not very clear

but can you see how hes sitting with his bum dipping?

 

[NIfirsttimer]

gottcha..... is it to do with the straps under her legs, or just bouncing her down a bit more?

 

[JayleighAnn]

Bouncing her down more so she's in a pouch at the bottom. If you hold the straps about level with your head and give a good tug at the same time as jumping a bit, it should get her bum seated more x
