What do you place your LO in when feeding them? The high chair seems to big for him. He is 5montjd old and just starting solids. Should I buy a bumbo? I heard bad things about it, wondering what else I could use. Any ideas, pics welcome thank you
I just bought Kahlan a highchair. But we feed her on laps, in her bouncer or the bumbo too. She's 5 months Monday and been doing solids for almost 2 weeks. We haven't had any issues with the bumbo and I think the main bad things are if that's the only time they sit up it can make them avoid learning to sit. But we give her plenty of practice
I use a fisher price space saver. It reclines if your LO isn't totally able to hold their head up yet! My LO loves it, even plays in it sometimes! She's not reclined in this picture though.
This is what we use. Its a portable high chair with 5 pt harness that turns into a booster seat. It can also recline. I like it. It's called a miSwivel. I forget the brand, I think the First Years?
We used a gumbo, didn't really like it. Just bought him a highchair at ikea last week. We're not really doing solids much yet, but IMO the Bumbo was a pain in the ass.
At out house we use her high chair the graco blossom. At my parents, they use the bumbo, and at my in laws they use a rocker chair that has a "kickstand" so it doesn't rock.
Love it Sooz. I kinda wish I would have gotten the TrippTrapp but I'm going to wait until I don't have to buy all the extra stuff to have him sit in it...then by that time he can just have his sisters.
Re: Where do you feed your LO?
ETA in this pic my LO is 4 months and change
Use to use the bumbo but it got too messy. He loves sitting in the high hair.
