15 week old wants to sit up

antonia

I’m looking for recommendations for some type of seat for my 15 week old. He doesn’t want to be laying down but he wants to be sitting up, not inclined like in a bouncy chair. I’ve looked at the fisher price sit me up and maybe Bumbo. He has good head control but wobbles.

Sit me up seats are for 4 months and up baby needs to be stronger with head control first. Do tummy time were baby can practice raising the neck and strengthening that away.

I've been using the sit me up since my girl was 9 weeks. She loves it! She's 12 weeks now.I just rolled up a swaddle blanket and stuffed the front to keep her more secure. But she doesn't really need it.I've heard bumbos are pretty bad for posture and they don't seem like a product that would be used for long especially if LO gets some chunk to their legs... but the sit me up has a tiny slant so they sit more naturally and its open so I feel like I'll be able to use it as she grows.

Definitely recommend the Fisher Price Sit Me Up over the Bumbo. The Bumbo is actually not good for their physical development. My daughter’s Physiotherapist (she sees one as she was born very premature) recommended the Sit Me Up and my daughter absolutely loved it.

I got my baby an Upseat, it’s like a bumbo but designed for better posture and hip movement. It’s Canadian made so not sure where to get it out of 🇨🇦. Straps to a chair and she loves joining us for meals.
