| Subject: Too early for a bumbo Tue Oct 26, 2010 4:55 am | |
| My nephew is 12 weeks now, but when he was 9/10 weeks my SIL sat him in a bumbo, saying it was ok cos he can hold his head up. He was leaning to the side, and he didn't look very comfortable at all, and I thought it was a bit early for him to be in a bumbo, what do you think?? Sometimes its like she doesn't want him to be a baby anymore lol x |

| i think anytime is too early if the child cannot sit up in it as he/she should but 9-10 weeks is very very young lewis went into a bumbo at about 3months, but he could support his own head at birth people that try to force their babies to rush stages baffle me....i think baby i think bottles, nappies, sleepless nights it seems alot of people think as soon as a baby is born it's time to get it onto solids, potty train as soon as and overfeed the baby so it sleeps all night(not directed at anyone btw, just a general observation) |

| I agree time goes so quick you need to enjoy them being a baby. Ava was about 16 weeks when I used hers, I wouldn't have used it if her head had been slumped. I think it depends on the baby though as Kenty said if they have good head control it shouldn't be as issue what age they are |

| I can't remember exactly how old, maybe 3/4 months, but she couldn't hold her head long so I always popped her against the sofa with a small pillow so her head didnt fall backwards! |

| Awwww see now she looks comfy in it, but Matthew doesn't and is leaning to the side. Harry and Asha (my neice) also held their head from birth but I never had a bumbo for Harry to use so he never sat in one. I'm not being awful but its like SIL is forcing him to grow up so quickly!! xxx |

| Naw im not having a dig semo. I used my judgement with c, will get a bumbo for this un but if they arent as strong as c then it will just wait. Id agree with you if they look uncomfy. She was just a stunt baby from the start lol |
