Jillie (and anyone else) how old was Kian when he started using his?

There's a few going on ebay for local pick up quite cheaply near me. CAFC, if you're not adverse to 2nd hand it might be worth checking your area (although hopefully you won't have a repeat of the pram disaster)

my brothers got it for Kian last christmas- was 3 months. He used it pretty much everyday from about then. i kept it in the kitchen so i could cook, clean etc. Prob to start of with he was in for a few mins and gradually increased the time till he could stay in for about 45 mins if needed.

As a baby, A was in a huge hurry to do everything, but F is very different, I really don't think he'll be walking at 9 months like A did. However, he can now sit up on his own for a while at least - but I keep surrounding him with cushions just to be on the safe side!

Bexta - all I can say is persevere and they get over it I remember the head turning although Ed usually attempted to take the nipple with him *ouchie* I just kept turning him back but if he kept messing I put him down and made him wait for a lil bit before re-offering.
complete PITA phase tho! (aren't they all )

OK I need help choosing the next source of entertainment for L....

He's almost 5 months, fat and hasnt yet learnt to sit up by himself by he's getting there. He has a bumbo,although he doesnt like it for long...

Ideally I'd like something he can be sat in.... sub £50....

Put the Bumbo in front of a mirror? That used to keep Alice entertained for ages.

Hmmmm... quiet around these parts??:)

Hi MGEB!!!:D

CAFC - jumperoo!!!:j (if you can find one for under £50 - we did;)) It is sooooo brilliant!! Daisy LOVES it! We love it too;):D

I feel guilty for not going Music Makers this morning:o Someone was expecting me to go but I'm glad I didn't as my tummy is a bit dodgy and Daisy did a huge poo:eek:

its the seat he hates... he pushes his bum up and his back against it to pop himself out......and whinges....

I'm in tears as it looks like doggy will have to go live with my parents....:(

Sami, rubber nipple is indeed bad. Fortunately she mostly just unlatches to peer at everything.

Jillie, thanks for that. Will definately keep the couple on ebay on 'watch'.

Cafc - I'm so sorry, will you be able to see him much?
