BUMBO really stands for:


Big Ugly Mess By One-too-cute-to-get-mad-at! (ok so I'm not as creative as I thought!)


Why is it that almost every time I put Kate in her BUMBO seat that she poops. Let me clarify, when I say poops, what I really mean is explodes a runny, pooy mess! I have 2 outfits soaking in oxiclean as I type, with one more to go when I get a free minute (aside from my time spent complaining about the massive amounts of poo Ive cleaned lately).

I, too, have a post dedicated to this very topic! http://motherslamentations.blogspot.com/2008/09/bumbo-is-not-toilet-trainer.html

The post specifically mentions cheap diapers, but only because that was the first time it had happened. I think it is something about how squished the baby bum is in the Bumbo, and the poop has nowhere to go but up and out!!!! Still, I love the Bumbo chair!!!

SO DOES PATRICK!!!!!!!!!! Without fail he ruins his outfits in his bumbo!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one who has to deal with it!

She is TOO cute, I can't believe how big she's getting.

This post and the comments that go with it made me laugh! Oh, what we moms have to put up with! I don't have a Bumbo chair, so I can't really add anything, but personally, I think it is just sitting up in general that makes a baby blow out of their diapers. The sitting up stage for Luke was also the stage for the most blow-outs, but I did find that when I moved up a diaper size, they didn't happen as often. Maybe that will help, if not, I still love the post! :)

when i was pondering getting a bumbo, i took carly to babiesrus and sat her in it to test it out. and she blew out. all over. in the babiesrus bumbo. oops.

these days she has a tendency to poo in her exersaucer. moving on up, i suppose.
