Re: Questions for Bumbo Baby Seat Users

[Guest guest]

Hi Annie,

One member, Lou, has one and she checks this site occasionally so

hopefully she can give you an idea. Check on EBAY though, they have

them much cheaper. Last time I checked they had 4 or 5. Usually in

the UK but they will ship internationally most of the time. I am

considering getting one myself. Hmmmm, don't want you outbidding me

though...just kidding!!

Annie,

Have you already made your last trip to CT? I was just thinking

that they may have one you could try out to see if he likes and fits

in it. I'm not sure if all the clinics have one or not, but ours

does. I thought I remembered the bumbo website saying that MUCH

older kids w/special needs used the seats as well.

Hey ... I haven't seen one in the Miami clinic. Our last

appointment is on the 11th... pictures, measurements and exit cast

and I guess we are done:-) Guess I will miss the darn thing and, of

course, the " beautiful perfume " that comes out from it ;-). Now...

to teaching him how to head bunt...

Natasha also replied to my post and she recommended that I look at

Ebay... maybe they will have one available. Also another member

replied (can't remember her name but the baby's name is Brad). Brad

is a little bigger than Ignacio and weights a lot more and she tells

me he fits perfectly. Also they are close in age so I guess we are

buying the seat. For now, I will only get one and if it is what we

expect we will get another for . Its just that is

easier to control during his tummy time but with Ignacio I have to

be close to him all the time...

Hi there Annie,

I have not read all the replies yet but, I want you to know I have a

Bumbo for my 7 month old and it works great. She loves and so does

her 2 year old sister. 32lbs and 30+ inches. They both believe it or

not, fit in it.

Cori, the 7 month old does great in it. Although now she is

beginning to crawl and does not like to sit still for too long

anymore. It has been a GREAT buy for us. It is great to travel

around town to friends and such.

Just thought I would let you know we love having it.

Ebay sells them for a little cheaper that is where I bought ours.

Lots of luck!

Lou
