Hi mummies,
When is the right age to put bb in the bumbo seat?

upto when can baby use bumbo? my baby is 7 months and im thinking if i should buy or maybe she is too big already and wont use bumbo as much?when your baby can support his neck well.. it depends, some baby an supports their neck well at 4mth olds. dear son can only support his neck well when he was nearly 6mths old. so we placed him at bumbo at that age =)
A Bumbo is one of those nice to have but not necessary kind of things.upto when can baby use bumbo? my baby is 7 months and im thinking if i should buy or maybe she is too big already and wont use bumbo as much?
dear hubby will cut my throat if baby wont use bumbo because our house is already full of baby stuff everywhere.. hehe..

Can your child sit on her own already? If she can, a bumbo won't be very useful. Once babies learn to sit, they learn to climb out of the bumbo too!
yup ting have to agree with u..i put reyna in at 6 weeks old n mostly used it to take pics..hahhaha..once she hit 3 months she was too fat for it..then had to sell it away.no offence to any mummies out there, but i find bumbo chair is quite redundant.
but i have to admit, when i just heard of it, i was very tempted to get it too, cos babies look so cute in it. usually babies wont stay long inside.
Verona, my girl did the similar thing (except she is scratching it, instead of licking) when i first put her in bumbo when she is about 4 mths old. And she tends to spit out milk when we put her inside, even for a little while.Hey mummies , my baby is 4 month plus now she can support her head but she tends to bend down & lick the bumbo seat , does that mean that she is not suitable to use the bumbo seat ?
i totally agreed with sugarcookie. Got my son a bumbo, try putting him in on 3mths+, well his neck & head is still not strong & stable.. try again ard 4mths+, he is stable but only willing to sit in for short while & wanted to get out, 5mths+ he can hardly fit in the bumbo and immediately i put him in, he will struggle & wanted to get out. Maybe it is more suitable for "petite" babies but i find it is not necessary to have it.A Bumbo is one of those nice to have but not necessary kind of things.
