    It’s bumbo chair, not a potty. Smells about the same though.

    Also, if you’re a new parent: Don’t waste your money on this chair. While it feels safe and easy, it’s not a good position for an infant to be in. At that early age the back is not ready to support the weight of the upright body and it also hinders the child from developing motor skills.

    Leaving the kid on the floor is a better option. Not joking.

      I like to go full Spartan. Just leave them outside for the first night.

      Though seriously it’s kinda funny how important it is for kids to eat dirt and flail around on the floor.

          It helps build exposure to foreign antigens which helps build immunity.

            I figured that much but just by playing outside you will be in contact with a lot of germs anyway. I don’t see the necessity to eat dirt for the same. Would be interested to see if there are any actual research on this topic.

          Yup. I’m going to ask you one question: Can you imagine how it feels to bite into a wooden tabletop?

          The answer is yes, you can. Then ask yourself: How the fuck do you know that?

          Actually yeah it is. It both helps build a strong immune system by low dose exposure and helps reduce allergies by teaching the immune system how much to react. Repeated studies have shown living in rural environments, having pets and not being too picky about how clean a pacifier is are all beneficial for children’s long term health.

      Plus the shit comes flying up their back because of the shape of the chair.
