while baby still can't sit up without support for more than a second or two before toppling over, she has been pretty comfortable being in a sitting position with stuff propping her up - pillows, cushions, the corner of the sofa ...
as she seems to enjoy being upright, we got baby a booster seat/chair today so that she can sit up on her own for longer periods of time, and join us when we are eating at the dining table. i think she quite enjoyed the elevated view when we put her into the seat for the first time today. plus she can sit up and play with her toys now instead of just lying on her playmat or having us carry her in a sitting position.
am already foreseeing the benefits of the booster seat we got her. it's compact and portable and can probably fit on any normal sized chair, which means we can bring it along when we eat out if we want her to be somewhere else rather than in the pram or on those wobbly highchairs that restaurants sometimes have. we can also bring it along if we are having meals at friends or relatives' homes that do not have highchairs.
the tray is detachable and can easily be washed when it gets dirty. great for when we start feeding her solids.
the seat can be adjusted to fit babies of different sizes and heights. this was a consideration that led us to buy this over the very popular bumbo seat. was very afraid that baby's thunder thighs would get stuck in the bumbo ... heh.
really looking forward to playing with baby in her new chair!
