Alternative to buying the infant insert for Ergo Carrier?

[iOliver]

Instead of spending the 35$ or so dollars that our local baby boutique sells the infant insert for, and only using it for a few months, is there an alternative to buying one? Will a folded up blanket or something of the sorts?
Thanks!

Yeah, it can be helpful. The idea is you want to mimic how you'd hold your baby or how you'd position your baby in a sling. There are lots of ideas on The Ergo Lady (a website).

Amazon has it for $25. I've tried alternatives and haven't liked any of them- including the old-style insert.

Of course, I haven't tried the heart-to-heart insert either. Lol.

No ideas but I am so tickled because I came over to this forum to search for EXACTLY the same thing and this was the first thread!
