Jumpers - How old to start?

When did you first put your LO in one of the activity jumpers? I am going to try DD in her exersaucer for the first time tomorrow. She just turned 4 months. I'm not sure when I should try the jumper though

TIA

As long as she can hold her head up, give it a try! She'll let you know if she doesn't like it yet! We started my son in his jumperoo at 4 months and he LOVED it!

I've been putting DD in it for a few weeks now. She will be 4 months on Friday... so since at least 3.5 months.
Granted, she wasn't that good at it the first few times... she's getting much better though. I say go for it.. so long as she can hold herself up it's fine. I put a blanket in with DD though to prop her up. Also, her feet don't quite hit the floor yet. sometimes we put a pillow under her feet.

ds was about 3.5 months old

Re: Jumpers - How old to start?

DS turned 3 months last week and we put him in the jumperoo this week. He cant touch the floor but loves looking at the toys and when we gently bounce him. I think we put DD in around the same time.

Re: Jumpers - How old to start?

We started just before 4 months probably. Just roll a towel and put around them since they'll otherwise flop around in the seat a bit. DS is 5 months and I still put towels around him.
