I find putting my 11-month-old boy, Adam, in a walker to be more scary than just letting him crawl about and keeping an eye on him. In a walker, he is at a level where he is able to pull down chairs and my baby sumo is very strong. After a couple of times of near mishaps with chairs, I’ve decided to keep away the walker for good!

definitely no walker for my little one. Ihave read enough articles to know that its better to be safe than sorry.

But Inote a point brought up by lilian from her course on CPR for infant that high chair is also not recommended. i am currently using the hi chair to feed yee rei during his meals, but i made sure that the hi chair i bought is stable. amongst other features, i ensured that it had 2 long ‘bars’ as the base support instead of those 4 pointed ‘poles’ coz knowing how active yee rei is, he will likely topple over with the latter.

how about others? do you mommies use hi chair?

I am against walker due to reasons most of you have mentioned. Without it, you can also experience baby’s growth more intimately, like his first crawl forward, his first stand by pulling himself up, his first cruising step, etc.
