Have fun!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-our-8-month-old-camping#post-1839733 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 22:51:01 +0000 birdofafeather 1839733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Vegmama: lemme know if you need more camping info! i have a ton of tips. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-our-8-month-old-camping#post-1839730 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 22:49:21 +0000 Vegmama 1839730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@birdofafeather: I've seen those!!

We have a travel high chair that clamps onto the table. I love that thing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-our-8-month-old-camping#post-1837802 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 20:13:01 +0000 yellowbird 1837802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think the bumbo will be fine! That sounds fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-our-8-month-old-camping#post-1837727 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 19:24:41 +0000 youboots 1837727@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yay, glad you are going camping!!

My cousin used her Bumpo with the tray up to 10 months for her baby. I wanted to use ours more, but my LO has some chunky thighs that make it a tight squeeze, so we don't use it anymore :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/taking-our-8-month-old-camping#post-1837651 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 18:44:23 +0000 Vegmama 1837651@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've taken our baby camping before, but she was much younger. Thinking ahead, and now that she's eating solids, I'm wondering if we can still use our Bumbo at 8 months. She sits on her own, and I wasn't sure if that was okay. </p> <p>We have a tray that goes with it, and I was thinking we could use that for meal time. Also, I plan on trying her in it before, but it's packed away, and I didn't want to deal with it if it's likely not going to work. </p>
