4.5 month old who wants to be up and about all the time?

Hello!

I was just wondering if you could post asking about ideas for a small 4.5 month old who wants to be up and about all the time? I’ve tried in a walker/activity gym and she’s still not big enough. Thank you

Oh isn’t this an exhausting time. I see other mums have offered some great suggestions and don’t think I can really add to them

That’s a tricky one. Could you get a little car ghat you can push her along in to entertain her. Not sure what would be available for such a young bub though. My boy always wanted to be outside and was very entertained watching birds etc

We had a rainforest jumperoo and it was great you put the in there and they learn to use there legs and jump around or if the cant do that yet then there are lots of toys to play with

Place her on your knee and tap her gently or rub her gently

the bouncinettes are amazing, I recommend one of those for sure it uses up all of their energy!

I put my kids in a jolly jumper…two of them loved it and the third hated it.

4mth olds do well with the bouncinettes also

Ps
I would not put her in a walker just yet, she is a bit too young for that and it can be bad for her spinal alignment
