I remember my first Bumbo. I propped up my tiny baby inside so I could take cute photos of her without her falling over. Sure I put it on top of the dining room table. Until I learned later that you really weren't supposed to do that. I didn't leave the room, and I was incredibly lucky that my baby didn't suffer a skull fracture due to my own stupidity. But not everyone was so lucky.
