stationary walker vs moving walker

I have a stationary walker. Should I still buy a moving walker. At what ages do they use each one? Thanks

What's a stationary walker?  Walkers aren't really recommended because they aren't great for your baby's hip alignment and lower back.

That's interesting. The stationary walker looks like a walker with alot of toys all around. It doesnt have wheels so they can't move in it. Look up exersaucer. My son loves it!

Oh, exersaucer.  Yeah, we had one but he didn't like it.

Wow. I just read several articles recommending not to use walkers! They are dangerous and actually hinder the baby's growth. Thanks for the advice.

I've had several friends recommend push-toys for babies as they get to the cruising age.  Jude actually has a diaper box he uses to "walk" with - it's quite funny!
