Bumbo

thelilbump · Mar 6th, 2009, 12:12 PM

to anyone that has 1, would you recommend it? my daughter tried a friends and seemed to really like it but i'm not sure if it's a bit late to buy one now as she's nearly sitting up unaided. We've already got a highchair but i thought she'd be able to play in the bumbo aswell. So if you have 1 does your LO like it and what age are they?

We LOVE our bumbo! A great invention and i couldn't be without it. Lexie is nearly 3 months and shes been in it since she was 9 weeks! (obvioulsly i do take her out and she hasn't been in it constantly since 9 weeks LOL!!) Not sure if i would bother getting one though if you think she maybe sitting by herself soon. They are to expensive not to get your monies worth out of it xx

Since you LO is so old I wouldnt bother. Jasmine has one, but we;ve used it since 2.5 months so it was worth it.

Once Charlotte hit about 4 months old we had no more use for it, we loved it before hand though!

Here they sell Bebepods which I think are a bit more accomodating to bigger babies than Bumbos are, the same price too I believe, maybe you could use one of those? Or try to find someone selling it for half price on Kijiji or something (if you have that there) and then resell it as soon as you're done with it

Bumbo was great but is practically useless when your LO can almost sit unaided. Lola still sits in it but so rarely.
