If the carrier is still not comfortable over the chest area after adjusting the straps, then release the chest strap. The two side straps MUST remain connected and tight

ADJUSTMENT FOR ALL
Use some time to adjust all straps so the carrier fully suits your body. If the MiniMeis is tilting a bit backwards, loosen the chest strap and tighten the side straps.
