Babies: 9 - 12 Months
Anyone still using any of these (or plan to)?
(1) Boppy
(2) Play gym
(3) Swing
(4) Exersaucer/Jumperoo
(5) Crib bumpers
Just curious if there's any reason to keep them (other than for a future baby).
This discussion has been closed.
Re: Anyone still using any of these (or plan to)?
We still have everything, but only 4 and 5 are not packed away. I'm holding on to the stuff for a little bit, but I'm pretty sure we are done.
Our car uses the boppy as her personal throne now. She always curls up and sits there. I still have the walker in a up position because DS goes over to it and plays with the toys on it but that is getting less and less so that will probably go away before his party later this week. He got too big/active for the swing several months ago.
Never had 2 or 5.
But I'd definitely hang onto whatever for a future baby.
(1, 5) Boppy we still use this ALL the time, he loves it, laying on it, tackling it. He even lays on it to watch sesame street. I have no intentions in putting it away or getting rid of it b/c H will even use it as a neck pillow. I still have his bumpers in b/c otherwise he shoves his face into the corner of the crib and gets his arms/legs stuck.
(2, 3) We sold these when he stopped using them b/c they aren't hard to come by and we bought our swing off CL anyway.
(4) Exersaucer/jumperoo-I want to sell them but at the same time I don't. MIL bought the jumperoo so I just have it in the basement for now. I bought the exersaucer off CL, but I'll probably sell it.
1) Boppy: I just used it recently when we stayed at my IL's.... I had him sitting in it when I gave him a sponge bath to keep him relatively still.
2) Play gym: He lost interest in this as soon as he was crawling (8 months).
3) Swing: We still use it nightly.
4) Jumperoo: He's still into it a couple times a week.
5) Crib bumpers: Yep, they're still on. It makes the crib cozier.
I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living my baby you'll be.

Boppy-yes I still nurse DS using it.
Play gym and swing were packed up long ago (once he started taking apart the gym and pulling himself up in the swing by grabbing on the mobile that was it).
He doesn't go in the jumperoo thing, but he likes to furniture walk over to it and play with the toys.
I still have the breathable bumpers on, they are too soft for him to climb on, so I'll probably just keep them on until they are a nuisance. I kept his bulky bumpers that came with his crib set and plan on making them throw pillows.
We still use the bobby for feedings and he loves to climb over it, tackle it, beat it up.
Bumpers are in his crib.
Still loves his exersaucer.
The rest is packed away, not getting rid of any of it yet.
I use the boppy to wedge between the couch and chair so Wyatt can't get in between because there are cords, dvd stand and a tall lamp that I don't want him to get to.
Other than that we don't use any of those anymore. He is walking now though and doesn't want to be confined. He is very pleased just walking around making a mess.
This here, too, but we just have the jumperoo. Sometimes he plays with the toys on it but doesn't like to be in it long.
Boppy, never use anymore, though, I'm considering using it for me.
Play gym, nope
Swing, haven't used in months
Exersaucer, a couple times a week, Jumperoo, same
Bumpers, never had
Life with Blog
I have the Boppy out only because he's slept upright in it, in our bed, a couple times when he was sick and congested, but I'll probably throw it in his closet. We also still have the jumperoo out but yesterday when I put him in it he seemed completely disinterested, I thought that would be out awhile longer but maybe not!
DD (5 years old) from IUI in 2012
TTC 3rd and final!: IUI #1 in progress!
(1) Boppy - No, put these away 3 or 4 months ago when they started sitting up on their own.
(2) Play gym - They love crawling under it and batting at the toys that are somehow still dangling there. Another play gym we had actually turned into a little tunnel that they really love crawling through and playing with each other in.
(3) Swing - Very rarely anymore.
(4) Exersaucer/Jumperoo - Becoming very rare as well, they'd rather be crawling around on the floor.
(5) Crib bumpers- For the moment, this might be changing in the next few days as I've discovered I have a climber and I'm pretty sure she's going to try to use the bumper to climb out at any time. I don't think it'll work very well, but she's crafty.I still use my Jolly Jumper "The Baby Sitter" sometimes. She sits in it on the floor and plays with some toys.
The play gym is on the floor in our room, for some reason. It's used once in a while but we should probably pack that up.
The swing is in storage for future babies.
DD still plays in both the exersaucer and jumperoo.
We never used crib bumpers.We took the toys off the play gym and she plays with those all the time
She'll only tolerate the jumperoo for about 5 minutes, but we still have it in the lvivingroom for some reason.
Bumpers - yes.
(1) Boppy - no
(2) Play gym - is still out and DS somtimes plays with it, but not often
(3) Swing - no
(4) Exersaucer/Jumperoo - see n. (2)
(5) Crib bumpers - yes, but only because they're pretty
I still use the boppy to nurse.
She never had a play mat.
She never liked the swing.
She loved the jumperoo from 3.5-7 mos, but now wants to be able to go where she wants.
We still have the bumpers in her crib. She likes to snuggle with them and they keep her legs in (most of the time).
The Nest/Bump sucks and won't let me change my location. I'm in Arkansas, not Florida.
We're keeping everything for a future baby, but when we're done having kids we'll either donate or cosign everything.
We have them all, and are still using the exersaucer and crib bumpers. The exersaucer is helpful at this age because it's the only way to keep C in one place if I can't be *right there* to watch him for a few minutes. We have a walker he likes, too, and he'll "walk" around the kitchen in it while I get things done.
The crib bumpers are important for us because C has bumped his head several times on the bars of the crib. He's an accident prone little guy, I tell ya.
