Has anyone started using bumbo seats or similar?
My LO is 4 months tomorrow and has quite good head control, we have one of the inflatable seat things (in pic) but he isn’t very supported in it so wondered if bumbo style might be better?

I've been shopping around for something like this, I personally hate the bumbo I find it so stiff and it doesn't support their back at all which they need until they're atleast 1 year old so I'm unsure what to try as well

ah ok so maybe not a great choice then. This one is really cute but he just slips down at the moment in it so maybe a high chair of some description might be better x

I'm thinking of ordering his high chair this week, at the moment he sits in his pram or on the sofa with me but can't really give him toys and stuff like that 🤦🏻♀️

yeah I think I might get him a highchair. He’s got a bouncer thing that we put on the kitchen table at the moment (it is very sturdy) so he’s up high so I think he’d probably like it and then with a little tray etc too!

Yeah that's exactly why I use the pram! He doesn't wanna be on the floor he wants to see what I'm doing and be included, definitely a better shout I think!

I got this, it's 3-in-1 so can be used on the floor with the feet out or attached to a chair when they're bigger as a booster seat. Will still get a proper high chair eventually but thought this is good in the meantime and can move it round the house easily x

Normally on offer on amazon for cheaper btw!

No, but was thinking about it. I thought to wait until 6 months as that's what I've seen on the box
