Anyone tried these with 8 month old?

My 10 month old only uses straw cups but she likes the Nuby ones over these

Yes-I bought for my daughter when she was 7 and we still use them now and she is 8.5. These are great!

We just bought this and used it for the first time this week. Our daughter though is 8 months and she was quite comfortable. The child is sitting in an upright position though so I would not use it until they could hold their head up on their own.

I would say it depends on the coordination level and physical size of the child. They work well for my 2 and 1/2 year old son but my daughter is very petite and I do not think they would have worked well for her at the same age. I hope this helps.

My grandson is 8 and still likes his. I think you'd be safe to get them for him.

Maybe, depending on your baby. try these first, if they dont work now, they will work in a few more months and last for years to come. If they dont end up working, and you really need protection, try an infant set. I wonder if they are referring to 13 months and up, because they work great for kids under 13 years!?

Tie them very tight. Never had a problem with my 10.5 month old. He hasn't even tried!

We got these blocks when she was about 4 months old. Then she really was only interested in the crinkly sound some of them make. She's 8 months now and likes to throw them and topple them over. I can see her playing with these for a long time.

No my child has not gotten these undone. They've stayed securely tied. He's very curious & always figured out how to get into things & hasn't tried anything with these. He's currently 21 months old & we've had these on his crib since he began teething quite a while ago.

I bought these for my 6 year old and he loves them. Keeps him entertained for awhile. Not sure for an 8 year old.

I bought them for a 2-year old. If the 8-year old is very slender they might work.

As long as the baby can hold their head up, they should be OK. My daughter was 4 months or so. She is in 90% for her age, so I didn't need to put anything under it cause her feet touched the floor. She is almost 7 months old now and is still loving it!

I just recently bought them for my 12 month old and they work great. He is 26lbs and 33" so very big for his age. He still has a little room to grow into them. I believe they would have fit him when he was a newborn.

I am going to try them- think they'll be ok. I also use them for the stroller - on the City Mini. My 4 month old loves them, and I love knowing that she's not sucking on whatever that strap is made of.

I would be worried they could slip their arms out too easily at the size most 3-6 month babies are. I would not recommend them until they were closer to 2 or older.

I disagree with a majority of the answers. You're talking about your child's safety. There is a reason life jackets for infants are made to put a child on their back and keep their head out of the water. I would absolutely not use this for a baby. The child really has to work by kicking their feet and moving their arms to stay afloat. Even with swim lessons I don't think a 8 month old would be strong enough. Possibly a 18 month, but I would say that's the youngest.

I started using mine when they were about 8 months old and figured out how to undo the Velcro bibs. I still use them today and my girls are 16 months. I would say I could probably use them till they are 3.
