Christmas pressies for a 3 month old?

KazNic · Dec 8th, 2009, 11:18 AM

My little one will be approaching 3 months at Christmas. We can't decide what to buy her, (toys, clothes) if anything (harsh??) as she won't be aware and I know family will spoil her

What are you guys doing for yours?

Hello again baby twin!!

Thinking of a jumperoo or a bouncer. To be honest, its to help me out too!!

I have bought her a door bouncer (would have bought her anyway) and a 2009 harrods bear. Also got few bits in a stocking like dummies, teether etc. Will buy her more next year when she is more aware of it.

I have one of those and it was an absolute godsend but he's already tired of it??!! He used to sleep in it for about 2 hours. Not any more. Sigh. But with a rocker, I'll be able to move him round the house with me

Jumperoo, swing, lamaze toys, sophie the giraffe (best teether ever), bumbo... do you have any of those yet? Anticipate things she will want/use over the next several months. For example, my LO is getting a ride/on walk car. He probably won't use it for a month or two, but he'll have it when he is ready for it!

Thanks x got a bumbo, when can i put her in it?

I started using the bumbo when he was probably 11 or 12 weeks, I think? As soon as his neck strength got decent (but not excellent). At first he would only stand it for about 2-3 minutes before getting super tired and cranky in it. But it helped him with neck and back strength by using is for short periods a couple of times per day.

And get a tray for the bumbo - Ilana always drops her toys and it's a right pain!

Oh yeah -- and a high chair if you don't have one. I don't use it for feeding yet (as I am trying to get LO to hold out weaning until 6 months) but I do put him in it for practicing sit up strength and to play with toys. I use rolled blankets to help support him. We started using it a few weeks ago (at 4 months, but probably could have started earlier if we had it) and he loves it! I think he likes that it gets him up high and he can see what is going on better.

He started sitting unaided in the tri-pod position this week, so I think the high chair has helped his sitting power.
