Best breed for family with baby

[gglndn]

Any recommendations for breeds that are friendly to/ comfortable with young babies? Just staying at my parents over Christmas and my 8monyh old loves watching their dog. We thought a dog might be a bit much to take on so thought of a cat. People have mentioned to be that cats can get jealous of babies, so was wondering what people thought?

What breed is your baby?
No seriously, a rescue cat is the best option, by far. Although you sound, if I may say, a bit clueless, so do lots of general research about cat ownership first.
To get a cat as a plaything for your baby is a very bad idea. Get it a toy one instead!
