Let me start this by saying.... Babies in Jolly Jumpers are cool! They love them.
As you can see here they really do love it. That was my little guy doing the jumping.
But we have been warned to use it by the Occupation Therapists at Sick Kids. Apparently it can cause the muscles in the legs to overdevelop and bowed legs I believe. We have to be a little bit more vigilant about things because our wee guy was a preemie and they are watching him more closely.
That being said....I think almost all of us used a Jolly Jumper at some point and we seem to be ok. I would think that a moderate use of a Jolly Jumper wouldn't do any lasting harm.
