#774, "How to feed 3 crawling 6 month olds by yourself"


          

Hi! Help!! Any ideas on feeding bottles to 3 rolling/almost crawling babies by yourself? I have been using 2 bouncy chairs and my lap in the corner of the sectional, but that will no longer work because they roll out of the chairs and squirm and it's really dangerous. I'm so stumped ... will start feeding solids at the table but no clue how to do bottles.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Never mind. I just saw that you said bouncy chairs don't work for you! Sorry.

If your wiggly kids can get out of the lap/crotch belts on the bouncy seats, you might do better with a 5 point harness.
Do you have a Peg Perego (or same style) highchair that reclines and has a 5 point harness? I see them all the time on Craigslist.

Are your carseats in the house? Maybe strapping them in for feeding time?

I agree with the highchairs idea. I have also learned that if they are too busy to eat, they aren't hungry enough. No matter how much they move around, hungry babies will stop to eat. Are they holding their own bottles yet? If not, start practicing and your life will soon improve dramatically.

I was always in the same boat. The only safe solution for us was to get three seperate five point harness high chairs. It was expensive, but it's better than dropping one of your little ones!
