What do you think about the chair? I mean should she be in it if she doesn’t know how to crawl and sit on her own yet?! I just want her to do the sitting and crawling on her own, without the support devices
I bought one and never used it. By the time they reached 4 months and holding their head up fine, they qwre too fat to fit into it lol
I used one of those with both my boys (not exactly the same thing) but close enough and they enjoyed being in them and sitting up feeling like they were part of everything
I avoided them because I read it wasn't recommended but after a few months of experience I think moderation is key. I was also terrified of rock n plays because of flat heads. I would only put him there while I had breakfast. As long as they get plenty of time on the floor, I don't see the risk of using the chair.
Yup, I wish she could spend more time on the floor, she doesn’t like tummy time that much and plays on her back for just a bit longer but not long enough
I avoided anything that forces their little body to do something they can’t do. I was terrified of causing my daughter to have hip dysplasia
Right, that is what I am afraid off. Need to ask our pediatrician then
All babies are different ! She’ll get their when she’s ready! I was told though that those chairs aren’t recommended anymore , and that the sit me up chairs are a lot better (:
@maria_lizzie, and they come with little toys to keep them entertained ! My son loved and still loves it
@briannalynn547, thanks! So they are safer because of more back and neck support?
@maria_lizzie, I was told the bumbo seats aren’t good for the hips . Not necessarily the back
My daughter had one of those I loved it she did as well I don’t see anything wrong with it

Still no crawling but she gets into sitting position on her own. Any advice how to encourage crawling?

is it wrong to be frustrated that my daughter acts like she can't do certain things with out my help. she plays dumb a lot and I wish I could be like no girl show what you know. she acts like she can't trace or match shapes so shes ask for "mommy finger" to help her so I barely hold her hand and she magically can do it but if I dont hold her hand she just scribbles and acts like she doesnt know
the pic is how she traces when I'm "helping her" otherwise it'll just be scribbles all over the page
Baby won't bear weight on leg
I have a walking 10 month old and she has been extra fussy yesterday and today. Today I noticed she didn't really want to crawl, she would just cry until I came and picked her up. After I fed her, I tried setting her down to play with her big sister and she just started crying and wouldn't put any weight on her left leg. She will put weight down on her right leg but then just cries until you pick her back up. I thought maybe she just didn't want to be put down (as ...
What would you do? - baby shower
SO my mom has been very negative about the baby my entire pregnancy. Especially in the beginning, she said the most HORRIBLE things about me, my DH and my unborn baby. Like that I was making a big mistake, that I was making her 2015 the worst year ever... etc etc. Even when she would do nice things she made me feel like I was a HUGE inconvenience and a burden to her. She told me to definitely NOT expect a shower or anything like that from her. Fine, whatever...
I've heard for short periods of time and supervised they are okay
