High Chair: How to adjust Baby Highchair (so your baby eats well)

Does your baby fall to the side, scream or constantly move around when sitting in the baby highchair? If this is your baby, then your high chair is too big. A high chair which is too big can lead to fussy eaters and a baby who won't eat solids. By making some simple adjustments you can ensure the highchair provides the postural support your baby needs to help them eat well.

Unfortunately, all high chairs are too big for 6/7/8/9/10 month old babies and need adjusting. These simple tips will make a huge difference to your baby's willingness to eat and remain seated in a high chair. Let me know how you go adjusting your baby's high chair?

My baby is turning 6 mos this Feb, and as a first time mom, this is probably the best YouTube channel ever. It just is.

[yanabanana]

It's so useful! I never heard of someone else talking about it, yet the comparison with a chair where you can't put your feet on the ground was spot on!

Emma, I just want to let you know you are a blessing. Your videos have helped me so much. My LO has been very fussy when I put him in his high chair and wants to be out of it in just a few minutes and I just didnt know why. This video has shown me why. Your videos are just always a breath of fresh air. Thank you!!!!

[FamilyFitnesswiththeMartins]

You are my best teacher!!!!The way you package your videos is on another level.Thanks for coming through

[elizanavales]

this is really helpful.. I'm glad we just started feeding our six months old twins a week ago and could correct the mistakes we made. thank you

[yasmeenm]

Im so glad to find this! My 6 month old is a little petite girlie (10th percentile) and I’ve had fights about the bloody high chair! Thank you

[larasteinbacher]

Woah, totally makes sense and didn't think much about how they sit would affect how they eat. So grateful for this video. Thank you I have a high chair to adjust.

[teresaalonso]

I was JUST talking to my husband while feeding our daughter that she looked so small in her high chair! I love your page, soooo many useful tips!!

[rachelle]

Omg yes! We spent so long researching high chairs and found one we like with a lot of features. But now I realize that it is way too big! It can be adjusted somewhat, but the adjustments still aren’t enough for my six month old. I’ve used a lot of little towels now to fix her high chair.

We’ve been doing solids for almost a week, and she seems to like the food, and wants to interact with them on the tray, but just couldn’t reach out really (so I’ve been often handing food/a spoon to her). I am sure the high chair being too big is a big part of the problem! You almost need a baby sized high chair, just like there are newborn sized cribs (bassinets).

Woow ! I’m shocked why haven’t any of these companies make their high chairs with all these tips and things in mind . I’m appalled . These are excellent tips and makes such a difference . I just got my high chair today and I used all these tips and it made a major difference 😳

[rosie]

Thank you Emma for the tips!! Your videos are all soo good. You have helped teach me so many things I never knew or what I should be doing correctly. I am really enjoying watching all your videos on tips and tricks for mums. Great job love your channel! :)

[gabrielavieira]

Such good information for free!
Thanks Emma! I'm from Brazil and my baby is now 7 months of age. I've learn a LOT from your channel!

[biancahislop]

I was looking at purchasing a high chair for my lo and honestly didn't even think about how much is going on with a baby while they're in there and eating but it all makes logical sense. I was watching baby led weaning videos and this one came on while I was prepping baby's bottle. I love your videos ♥️

[alexandracooper]

Perfect! Just what I needed to know as starting weaning in the next few weeks. Thanks Emma

[lindsayquay]

I wish I saw this video for my first, who is now 4 years old. I was frightened of feeding him because he kept gagging looking like he was choking. I didn't realize until amother parent came to our house that the high chair was very reclined and it made such a huge difference! We didn't make sure he was supported in all the other ways mentioned in your video. I will definitely be trying this with my second!

[priya]

I love all your baby tip advices. An ardent follower of all your tips ! Thanks much !

[BrightElk]

As someone with an already very small baby for her age group thank you. This video was a life saver.

[jenessary]

Your channel is so honest straightforward to the point and sensible. The best one I can find answers from is you. My baby is 18 months and she is just starting to appreciate her comfortability in the high chair we have, why are the seats enormous from the start with inserts??!

[Sam-uiir]

Great video! I'm going to use these tips but I've read not to apply the harness for babies that can't climb/stand since you don't want to be fiddling with buckles and such if the baby is choking and you need to get them out quickly..something worth considering.
