Karyn finally got her Bumbo seat

After much sourcing on the SingaporeMotherhood forum, I finally managed to secure a yellow Bumbo seat from a lady seller by the name of "bargainhunter".

Her son always struggled to get out of the seat when she put him in. He was about 3 months plus at that time. Hence, she gave up using the seat and had kept it inside her store room for months before putting it up for sale.

It was a good bargain; paid $50 for it. The retail price is about $80. The seat is in very good condition, without any stains or marks.

We collected the seat on the way to Ye Ye and Nai Nai's house and immediately let Karyn try it out when we got there.

Her initial response to sitting in the Bumbo wasn't as enthusiastic as I was putting her into it. Haha! It was quite a tight fit initially, maybe 'cos it was her first time.

After squeezing her chunky thighs and heavy Pampers-laden bottom into it, she looked rather awkward. In fact, she looked constipated! Haha!


It took quite a bit of adjusting to make her feel comfortable.
Finally, after several re-adjustments, she seemed happy enough on the Bumbo.

Along the way, Daddy snapped away on his camera...

Right now, she can't sit on it for long as her neck is still not strong enough. So we just put her in the seat for a few minutes each day. Hopefully in another couple of months' time, her neck will strengthen and she can watch tv in it! Heehee...
