When did you stop putting her baby in a bouncer?

Q. You know, the little seat that sits in the floor that you strap them in with a bar of toys on it?
I ask b/c she is trying to sit up in it. I fasten her in and it is tilted back, but she sits straight up. It hasn't tilted yet, but could she actually tilit it over forward? She is 5 months
I have always sat her in it after he bottle due to reflux. I wonder what else I could sit her in...

A. My son is just five months and is too trying to sit up in his bouncer. I have the rain forest bouncer which he loved. I bought a new bouncer for him because he still wanted to sit in it but he wanted the luxury of sitting up tall. The one I bought is the Fisher Price infant to toddler seat which also vibrates and only needs one battery!! {My other one needs four.} This seat also goes up to 40 pounds so your child will be able to sit in it as a toddler too. I only paid like $40 in Babies R Us. Plus Babies R Us also has coupons and sales.This bouncer has a strap in the back so you can have the child sit up or if they get a little tired, lay back. Plus it also has "more grown up toys" on it so my son loves grabbing things and I add stuff to it so he doesn't get bored. The other thing that I would suggest is that if your bouncer is like my rain forest one, lean the back of it up against the bottom of your couch, then your child won't be leaning back so much.


What should I buy my little brother for christmas?
Q. My mom want to know what I am getting him so she can save up for it and order it and all that. He is 1 years old probally like 16-18 months (not sure lol). What do you think about a sit N' Spin or a tricycle?
What ideas do you have?
She said nothing over 50 I think.

A. Learning toys are always great for infants and toddlers, I would find something that will help mold his little mind. Something along the lines of fisher price.

Little People® Pop ’n Surprise Train
Little People® Racin’ Ramps Garage™
Little People® Amazing Animals Circus

All of which are under $50 and are very nice, we bought them for our son when he was little.

Best of luck.


A question for all the mothers of infants?
Q. What things do you have for the baby that you couldn't possibly live without?
What items to do have that are completely useless and you couldn't imagine why you got them?

I'm adding items to my registry for my 'surprise' baby shower (I know its happening, but have no idea when..or where) and want to make sure I covered everything.

Feel free to tell me about toys your baby loves, etc.
I need to make sure I have it all =)
I'm due in 4 1/2 weeks!

Thanks!

crap I thought I needed and never used
- high chair
- stroller (she hates it) maybe later but def not anytime soon
- bases for car seats, they dont fit right in my car, so i wind up strapping her in and she goes with me everywhere...no need for multiples
- pack and play
- more than one moby wrap
- lots of blankets
- ultimate crib sheet
- fancy bed linens for crib
- any dresses at all for her
- any coats for a baby
- papasan cradle swing- unstable and she outgrew it too fast, the other swing was life saver first 3 months
- fisher price chair that is sort of like boppy chair
- fisher price infant to toddler rocker
- ETA: angel care monitor- nice if your baby actually sleeps in a crib- which mine barely does now at 23weeks. if i had a do over i would get the video monitor.
i will update as i think of others, but bottom line, wait to meet your baby!
