She's obsessed with the lion that spins &amp; the chewy flower. </p> <p>They pop out, in case no one else knew this. I took the toy part apart to clean &amp; let her play with. The flower thing is a really awesome teether! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069357 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:52:10 +0000 lawbee11 2069357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: @MrsF: We have M's stored in her closet and she still runs for that damn activity tray every time she sees it and she's 18 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069351 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:47:11 +0000 MrsF 2069351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: I'm so happy to see this! I'm buying one from someone on Craigslist tomorrow. J is a chunky monkey and I don't think he'll fit in a Bumbo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069349 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 20:44:54 +0000 Tanjowen 2069349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: @Mrs.Pinecone316: I also had the chunky thigh issue with the Bumpo. I was so excited about getting to use it and then he never fit! I'd definitely would go with something with more "give" to it next time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069276 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:35:59 +0000 littlebug 2069276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had the prince lionheart seat. Pretty sure we only used it 3 or 4 times. We sold it, and I don't think I'll buy a seat for a future baby. Just seemed unnecessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069274 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:34:46 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 2069274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: I was just going to suggest that. We have it for DD2 and she loves it. It's pretty rad!<br /> It has so much more support than the Bumbo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069271 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:33:58 +0000 ladybee 2069271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Pinecone316: we have the one posted above. Our sons chunky thighs fit great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069268 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:31:53 +0000 Mrs. J 2069268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had the Prince lionheart seat!

It seems like the snug seat or boppy one would be better if we do end up with the chunky baby:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069252 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:14:20 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2069252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a bumbo and never used it. DD1 had really chunky thighs and by the time she had the neck support to sit in it she was too big. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069247 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:12:14 +0000 lawbee11 2069247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Pinecone316: I registered for it at Babies R Us but I'm sure they have it at Target and on Amazon or other major retailers as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moms-bumbo-or-boppy-baby-chair#post-2069245 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 19:09:14 +0000 Mrs.Pinecone316 2069245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: That looks awesome, I haven't seen that one yet.

Everyone I know has used the bumbo, but the boppy seat looks like it maybe hasn't been around as long since every website I look up there aren't as many reviews as the bumbo has. </p> <p>Here is the comparison page so you can see both..</p> <p><a href="http://www.buybuybaby.com/store/compare/product_comparison.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.buybuybaby.com/store/compare/product_comparison.jsp</a></p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-body-pillowboppy#post-1920326 Tue, 28 Oct 2014 22:41:16 +0000 shopaholic 1920326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catomd00: in your normal machine?

I was hoping not to have to go to a laundromat, but it might be the wiser choice. I'll just have to go looking for one - maybe in some apartment building? lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-body-pillowboppy#post-1919083 Tue, 28 Oct 2014 10:59:56 +0000 Mommy Finger 1919083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it's too big for your washing machine/dryer, you may need to go to a commercial laundromat and wash it there. As with pillows, I would throw a few tennis balls in the dryer to keep it fluffed up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-body-pillowboppy#post-1918728 Tue, 28 Oct 2014 07:57:07 +0000 cmomma17 1918728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bumping for you! and I think @sorrycharlie asked something similar recently! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washing-body-pillowboppy#post-1918623 Tue, 28 Oct 2014 03:01:49 +0000 shopaholic 1918623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone ever washed their Snoogle/body pillow/Boppy? I'm trying to put things away in storage and want to wash some things before packing them away. I'm not too worried about the Boppy - I think I washed it once (I used a waterproof cover in between as well). But I'm worried about the Snoogle. If it will be hard on the machines and if the stuffing will get funky? But it's been in a bin in the garage and I'm not liking that method. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633849 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 12:15:33 +0000 wheres_c 633849@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didnt like thd my brest friend....it was too high and firm, i just sold it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633718 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:46:17 +0000 MamaMoose 633718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: Oh I loooove the PBK cover. Maybe I sleep with mine. Don't judge me! : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633699 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:40:09 +0000 .twist. 633699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: oh nice! We're getting a target here in the spring so hopefully they'll have the same brand and I'll be able to actually check them out and compare! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633691 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:38:57 +0000 mrsjyw 633691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@.twist.: i do like it, it fits me/ds really well, but i also dont think it's far better than any competitors. i bought it when target had a huge discount at $20? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633684 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:36:51 +0000 .twist. 633684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kml636: Thanks, I might have to look at the breast friend a little closer. From what I've read it doesn't sound like something that would work for me. But maybe I need to see it in person!</p> <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: The Gia looks super cool! This might end up being something I don't register for and just use a gift card or something for the feeding pillow. </p> <p>@mrsjyw: Do you like the cushion though? Do you think it differs much from another similar styled pillow?</p> <p>@Mrsbells: I think I plan to use it for both feeding and sitting/belly time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633611 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:13:27 +0000 Mrsbells 633611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I heard good things about other brands, but it all depends on what you will use it for the most. I like the boppy brand for propping LO up when she couldnt sit up by herself. she was always really content reclining in the boppy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633608 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:11:39 +0000 mrsjyw 633608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard great things about My breast friend~</p> <p>I have a boppy and more than the cushion itself, I like the cover for it from pbk -- so soft and plush~ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/boppy-vs-knock-offs#post-633567 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 11:03:37 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 633567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I vastly preferred the Gia. It comes up higher and doesn't squish down as much, so I didn't have to hunch like I did with the boppy. </p>
