Seating Solution

Finally, we found a feeding chair that works for Vera. She doesn't quite like being in the car seat for long because the sides envelop her and it can get quite warm. Being a car seat, it's probably made for the air-con comfort of a car.

This seat however, The First Year's 4-stage feeder is more open at the sides, so ventilation and view is improved. It also comes with a tray table, which lets us "bring the world to Vera". Now, she can prop her arms up on it and start to learn to play with toys. With the adjustable reclining positions, we hope to tilt her forward to an upright position as her head and neck control improves. Currently, they are still pretty weak, so a too upright position will put too much strain on her curvy spine. Thank you for the recommendation, Laura!

Great investment! Wish they have something like this for Jonathan's size and weight. LOL!

I am so glad you have found something good for her sitting. She looks so content to be upright and playing. We have that same feeder, which is so good when you travel also. It is so nice and lightweight.
You are so blessed to have a mom that is a nurse. It must be very helpful and reassuring where Vera is concerned. One of the twins has pretty much decided on nursing and I am happy for her. Hoping that you and Vera have a great day.

Wow you must be reading my mind Vera. We are having a tough time finding good seating for Alyssa. I was going to post this week and ask for suggestions/help. So glad I checked in, i think I'll try to get something similar in hopes that it'll for our girl too! Vera is looking great~grow baby grow
