BJCMD - soft seat back...

Any suggestions on what to put in the back seat sleeve to make the seat less slouchy for now. I'm hoping once the twins are bigger it wouldn't be such a big deal...

Can I buy a product specifically designed for that space? I'm afraid cardboard will get wet and I will have a mildew mess if I forget to check on it.

Supposedly Baby Jogger has an insert that you can order. I don't have it, but I've been thinking about it for my BJCM.

I can't wait to see what others say. I have this problem with my double and it's specifically this reason that i didn't go with a bjcms when i needed a new single. My girl just slouches so bad in my bjcmd..

I hear you! The stroller is truly fantastic but my SN daughter NEEDS more support - otherwise she just shuts down and can't enjoy anything around her (low tone/hypermobility... under going genetic testing at this time). We tried a friends BOB Duallie and she had the same issue. She did best in the Phil & Ted.

I called Baby Jogger. They do sell a piece to stiffen the back seats. It's called a Baby Jogger PE Seat Board. Currently, they are out of stock and expect to have them on 7/7 - also, some online vendors have them in stock to sell... I just need to find 2 in the US. They retail for $8 each.

I wonder if BOB has anything comparible. I can tell that dd would prefer to sit more upright sometimes.

This is my only complaint about my BJCE. They totally slouch so I put a folded blanket behind them but it doesnt completely do the trick. I think once they can sit up on their own it will be better but it is annoying.

It's my only complaint too and that I still have my 3.5 yo who tires out and wants to ride.. so I still end up wearing a baby

I might consider, in addition to the PE Seat Board, a foam wedge... our Pediatric Physical Therapist might have some ideas/material to help out for Etta.

I'll post pictures when that day comes and send them to Baby Jogger - perhaps they will be able to add to their product line for medical needs.

oh, I didn't know you could get that, that is my only real complaint with the BJCMD too. I may have to get two!

I haven't found any instock, as least in the US - but know that the BabyJogger CS rep said they expect them 7/7... so, I assume I will order them directly or wait a few days until all the online stores have them again. I have a local store that will order it for me as they now carry the BJ line of city stroller

I'm considering buying a BJCMS...can someone explain the "slouch" problem to me? Is it that the seat back isn't supportive enough and the kids slouch down in the seat? I don't quite get it!

Thanks!

I'm not 100% sure. I find that Cordelia slouches in it...but she slouches in everything (that and she like to have her head down for whatever reason, so it looks all that more horrible...LOL), so I really have nothing to compare her too.

My ds doesn't seem to mind the slouching nor do I really. But i do wish it sat a tad more upright at times. I don't have any other complaints though. I love how lightweight it is.
