I suspect it is by over filling the body? Would you just use that fibrefill stuff?

I may attempt tweaking the body of the baby I have in mind, but have also decided to try her sitting on a mini buggy (draped in a blankie) that my G.daughter no longer plays with.
Think she would sit up on the buggy because of the design...otherwise she just flops if I try to pose her sitting!

Sorry for rambling!

Would it just be overfilling with fibrefill if I wanted to try that?

Thanks

Hiya, have you put anything in her head?? maybe its top heavy? You might not have filled the body enough. I use polly pellets and babyfat in its bottom, and fibre fill till its firm and can sit up on the table. I had to do this with one of mine, cos when she sat up before she toppled over,her head flopped too. But now shes fine and can sit up and play, without haveing to balance her.I also put baby fat in her tummy too, it seems to make them furmer i find. If you dont want to redo baby you can use empty toilet roll holders behind it, or kitchen roll holders.pop them under pillows or blankets.

Thank you Jean!
I'm not a reborner dollchitchat/AddEmoticons07628.gif

Who's very grateful for the tips in case I decide to have a tweak!

Have put her propped up in something (a slim box style basket) at the mo...but ideally would like her to sit in a chair.
