Has anyone used this effectively on an infant? (9 months old)

An infant moves his/her finger in the pulse oximeter, the readings will not be accurate. it is better to use an infant pulse oximeter. or use a handheld pulse oximeter with a wrap probe

I think I used it for about a year. When it started to get too deep with hard water and dirty marks and even cleaning it, I couldn't get into all the cracks, I bought another one when my son was 1. He's 20 months now and I'm still using it. He can sit in a bath just fine but he doesn't like getting water in his face so when I wash his hair, its perfect for him to lay back on comfortably.

Yes, I have used this on my 2-year old with success, but if your child has a tiny wrist it may not work. It may not be tight enough to provide the appropriate pressure.

I tried it on my 3 month old who is 13 lbs. it's very big and bulky. It does tighten enough so you could use it but there are other, more comfortable options for an infant. It is better for a bigger child.

I actually used it (supervised at first, of course) when my son was 10 months old. He started to understand how it worked overtime. He is 14 months now and does great on his own. I think the warning should be thought of as a suggestion in this case. Just make sure to look for small parts, but in this box the smallest part was about the size of a bouncy ball , so it wasn't too bad.

I used it on my 4 month old, only cream that worked! He's now 2 and as long as I keep on it everyday, works like a charm, no more eczema!

I personally wouldn't use this for a 9-month old. It does not come with a case.

Wondering if this worked for your child, or if you found something better? I am looking for a solution to the same problem with my son. Thanks!

I started to use it with my baby when she was 7 months first time. That worked for her

Yes! We used it until my daughter started kicking it off in her sleep at about 9 months.

It did not work for me it worked for others. So my best advice is to try it. However i am not sure if this is meant for babies.

No. On infants I've only used it for diaper rash. On adults I've used it for open skin that just wouldn't heal and it may take four or five days of successive treatment but it does the healing!

I think it depends on how big they are and how much head control they have. I used it for my first daughter before she could sit up....I loved it. It is something that I plan to use again on my second who is a week old. I will probably try him in it when he is a month or so old to see how he does....it is worth the investment...it also protects the fabric seat well into when they are older.

I haven't noticed anything like that, my 8 month uses it rather gently though. I don't even see how it would be possible though, honestly.

My son was able to play in his until well into his mid 20lbs and he is a big fellow too for his age. He pretty much used it until he started walking at 9 months.

I use it for my 5 year olds, and have been using it since they were 4, but I'm not sure about infants. There might be some logistical challenges. I recommend calling the manufacturer and asking them.
