Baby walkers...good thing or great big con?

[nedmum]

It's raining. DS is restless. Considering going to indoor shopping centre to buy one. Thoughts please!

I used one .

As long as not upstairs I think they're fine.

Prepare for a lambasting though...think they are as bad as greggs sausage rolls on MN

Oh. Oops.

Never had one for DS1 or 2, although DS2 used to enjoy going in one at a friends house.

We currenly have one "on loan" from a friend of mine for DS3 - and he LOVES it - been an absolute godsend, he's now 8 months old and spending a little less time in it - as he's suddenly discovered the delights of rolling around on the floor and trying to wriggle forwards - but I honestly don't know what I'd have done without it.

I would not be without one! My dd loves hers and follows me around the house.....she likes the freedom and I personally cant see anything wrong with them - as long as they are not in them for too long and are supervised.

sorry to crash your thread.

what is wrong with greggs sausage rolls?
(scuttles off to hide in case she gets lambasted for asking).

w.r.t. baby walker, it's wet, he's bored. i would.
(am already hidden, you can't get me. )

Wanted one of those static twizzly non-moving baby walkers for DS but never got round to buying one. With DD I couldn't remember why I wanted one - just gave her toys and saucepans etc. to play with. I think that for the amount of money, the space the take up and the short time they can actually be used, they are a bit useless.

I got one at a car boot sale

Ah. Good, you've all basically given me permission to shop. And I also love a Greggs sausage roll - my downfall in teenage vegetarianism

they are great worth every penny
