Alternatives to Bumbo and bouncy chair

colsy · Feb 2nd, 2010, 09:15 AM

We have a Bumbo seat, but LO's chubby legs don't fit in the gaps very well, LOL! However, he really wants to sit more upright than his other chair (a quite traditional bouncy cloth chair) allows. What other options are there in terms of chairs? We don't want/need a high-chair yet, so whatever we get is fine to just put on the floor. I tend to sit on the floor with LO anyway, so we're at the same level. Ideally the smaller the better so we can take it with us when we travel.

Don't know about an actual "chair" but if he likes to be upright do you have an excersaucer or bouncer?

Is your LO attempting to sit at all? (Sorry I don't know how old he/she is?)
You could get like a widgey cushion, kinda like a BF pillow but you can use them to support sitting up....
Off to find a link to show you what I mean!

Harvey got one of these for Christmas and likes sitting in it. You can move the supports to create a full circle rather than a semi-circle to keep LO in one place.

Elliott has this inflatable cloth covered ring. http://www.oo.com.au/prod/TYGN1067/2b.jpg He loves it and prefers it to the bouncer and bumbo.xx

We have a M&P adjustable height swing seat which H sits in for dinner time or sometimes housework time if she wants to see instead of nap.

I think Fisher Price do one too.
