What age are you putting LO in it to play? I think she's tired of her bouncy chair.

Re: jumperoo
My DH put our LO in this week, much to my chagrin. I'm back at work so I can't keep these things from happening.
I think it's too soon. She only lasted a couple minutes before she was done. I think 4 months she will be more ready.
We went to the exersaucer before the jumperoo with DS (we have both.) And we didn't start until he was showing interest in sitting up which was like 5-6 months for him.
Do you have a Bumbo?? That might be something different and around 12 weeks, our LO's start discovering their posture it's a great time to get it out. You'll notice they want to stand up, push off, then sit down etc. That's baby discovering their posture! I love it
So yeah, it's all about the Bumbo right now. I won't even get the exersaucer/jumperoo out of storage for a few more months.
Exersaucers and jumperoos tend to extend babies hips and it's not good for them when they are this little.
I can't leave the Bumbo out. Not because Lila doesn't like it, but because Jack is skinny and likes to call it a potty. I am afraid of what could happen...
I can't wait for all the Jumperoo Poo Posts!
Oh man, from lurking on 3-6 and 6-9 I realized there would be poo posts. All I can say is EWW.
No! The Jumperoo Poo is great! You can take a constipated for days baby, put them in the jumper and there you go, no more pain.
Really?! Good to know. The posts I've seen have been along the lines of my kid shiit all over himself and the jumperoo. I'm sure my days are coming, lol
I am thinking about getting the jumperoo out now. DS has been getting in the exersaucer for a few weeks now for short periods of time and loves it. But I would like to send that to my parents house for when they keep him there while I am at work. But I think he still might be too short for the jumperoo. We shall see.
But I wouldn't put ds in either if he didn't have (and has had for quite some time) excellent head control and is starting to sit on his own some and also stand and bear weight on his legs regularly.
Once she has really good head control. Also, when her feet can touch the ground. I've heard that it's not good to have baby practice standing on their tippy toes. That you should wait until they can have their feet flat to use the things that they stand it.
I took out the Jumperoo this week so that DS has another place to hangout. He seems to like it so far, mostly because of the music it plays, but it helps when I need time to get myself something to eat or something... DS is too short but I've put 2 books underneath so he can have his feet flat and jump.. Working good so far. DS wont stay in it for more than 15 min sometimes less...
I also stuff a receiving around him, because his torso will wobble in the seat if I dont.
No one else will ever know the strength of my LOVE for you. After all, you're the only one who knows what my heart sounds like from the inside

Thanks for the info! We have a Bumbo, it's stored in the attic, I just put it on DH's list to get out this weekend. She has great head control but I'm in no rush to move another huge baby equipment to the house, so I'm going to hold off on the Jumperoo for a couple more months at least.
