Hellobee Boards

Until about 6.5 months old when he could sit up in a highchair without support we took turns holding my son. We started asking the waitstaff to bring out whatever was ready first, not to wait for it all to be ready at the same time. That was the only way we could possibly have a chance at both eating a warm meal.

Mine will sleep in his stroller. He likes it in there and will also sleep just fine in his infant car seat. We're not big on bouncing him around (just never started) so he doesn't know otherwise (not at all the bouncing/walking around is a bad thing...some babies need it). The other mom may have just timed it well though. I know when I'm out I try to time it so he's either sleeping and/or just had a bottle. As he gets older I don't really care now if he needs to eat while we're out and we both deal with the feedings better.

i think some babies are just calm. i saw a woman get a manicure and her baby (maybe a year or so) just sat there in his stroller smiling. i was in awe. i can't imagine ever doing that with charlie!

eating out gets even harder as they get older. i wouldn't attempt it on my own -- i always have mr. bee with me!

We carried our daughter around in her carseat until she was old enough to sit in one of those high chairs and she was almost always very good, we would bring a bottle and toys and she would just sit in there and play or eat until she fell asleep. We were very blessed.

Ummm, we don't! Restaurants are not stroller/baby friendly where we live. We have our choice of McDonalds or a formal place with white tablecloths and enough silver for the royal family. There is an absence of mid priced and family places, but that's the culture here. When people have kids, they eat at home.
