Any ideas?

I have an Eden one, and I put her on my back. Tie short straps around waist, then cross the long ones over my chest diagonally (go across boobs) and then round my back, and tie under her bum. I am wearing it right, arn't I?

Or is she just a heavy lump?! :haha:
 
are you ensuring none of the straps are twisted as you tie so making sure they lie flush against body?

also, if it's your lower back hurting (where bottom strap is tied) it apparently means the long straps haven't been secured tight enough. once you have a larger baby (20lbs upwards ish) it seems recommended to do the lexi-cross and secure under baby's legs. lexi cross is where you cross the straps over baby's back twice so it is like a twisted knot then bring the straps under babys bum and back round to tie behind your back - hope this makes sense!

sorry i can't remember where i read all this info as did a load of research recently for my meitai!
