Baby's Equipments: Bumbo Baby Sitter

A cousin just informed me of her new pregnancy. Congrats! Days ago we met up in a family occasion and both of us talked about baby stuff. Oh ya, this reminded me of some baby equipments and newborn's clothing stored in the boxes for years. Some we bought and most we got them from our sister in-laws (save up a lot).
One of the innovative baby equipments that we purchased is a training sitter from Bumbo. See product picture.

We put our 4-months baby onto this Bumbo baby sitter when we play with him in the living hall (about 10-30 minutes, prolong the sitting time slowly with baby's capacity). Or if you have the play tray, you can attach it onto the sitter and place some toys on the tray.

Coming to 6-months, we feed him baby food from this baby sitter and later we let him to eat by himself.

All the times we seat our baby in the Bumbo baby sitter, we follow the below safety rules closely:

• Never leave baby alone in the sitter
• Never place the sitter (with baby on) at any raised surfaces (ie couch/sofa, chair, stairs, bed) other than ground level.

However, we stop putting him in the baby sitter after we see him arching back. He learns to crawl and he is freely moving to anywhere... much fun than just sitting in a baby sitter.

Despite we just used it for less than 6 months... but now, i can lend it to my cousin (more in the future).

P/S: I found a link about the hazards and the instructions regarding the usage of Bumbo baby sitter. http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml08/08046.html
