Does your baby always spit up when you place him in a bumbo?

Question

Every time I place my 4 month girl in her bumbo, she spits up. I literally mean, everytime. If you own a bumbo, does your baby always spit up when they are in there? If so, do you know why?

Answer 1

No, My Daughter never spit up when placed in her Bumbo-However, maybe the Piece in the front is pushing on her belly, or if she is to slumped forward it may be causing pressure on her belly. She may not be quiet ready for it just yet.Try putting her back in the seat in about a month. Lots of Luck!  

Answer 2

The babies I watch in the foster home don't always spit up when sitting in the bumbo seat. Some may if they have a full tummy and sitting in that position puts a lot of pressure on their tummies causing them to spit up.  

Almost all the babies I watch have Reflux issues from being born addicted to illegal drugs.

I love the bumbo seat that's for sure.

Answer 3

Have you tried burping her before putting her in there

(change in position could cause spitting up)

Answer 4

Yes, my baby always spits up on her bumbo. I think its because it crunches her belly a little and if she has gas, it will cause her to spit up. I looked online and saw the a lot have noticed this too.  

Answer 5

Oh yes! Mine spits up whenever she's in a bumbo! Also when she's in my arms, when she's in her crib, her cradle, her car seat. The kid spits up all the live long day.

Oh, the joys of parenthood.  

Answer 6

My daughter does not spit up when I put her in the bumbo necessarily, but she does spit up if she's been fed within the last 1/2 hour anytime I sit her upright in anything, including a bumbo, but also in her swing, on my lap, or place her on her tummy. Sitting upright and being placed on the tummy shorten the space the tummy has to take up in the abdomen and if her tummy is full, it forces some of it up. I try to recline her at a 45 degree angle or place her on her back after she eats for about a 1/2 hour.  

Answer 7

what is a Bumbo? Is it like an infant carrier or something?

Answer 8

I don't know what a bumbo is.    Is it a crib?

Answer 9

Try giving more time to digest, about an hour before going into the bumbo.  The sitting straight up position may be too much for little one so soon after eatting.  Good luck.
