  • Exactly!  My arms would fall off if I didn't have my swing.

  • I don't really use the swing (we just have a small travel sized one).  I wear kiddo while doing stuff around the house.  If DH isn't home when I shower, I put him in his bouncer.
  • Unfortunately, my daughter hates her swing and will only tolerate her bouncer for about 10 minutes. I don't get anything done around the house!

  • I have been swingless up until 2 days ago when my Mom came over and had bought Sam the FP Precious Planet swing! I love all the music and the speeds and how it goes side to side and front to back! I don't know how we lived with out one or the last 2 1/2 months :)

  • We don't have a swing for DS... i didn't use one with DD either.

    I wear DS in a sling while I get things done at home. He also loves being in his jumperoo or if I really need to I put him in the pack in play with a few toys. 

    I tend to shower at night once the kids go to bed so I can truly have a moment to myself without worry.

  • I hear ya.  We use the bouncy chair, but same thing.  Now he also likes his exersaucer.  Same deal--it allows me to shower when DS is awake.  (I also wear him a lot but I think it's fine if he has "his own time" without me holding or wearing him!)

    Never fear, my DS was the same way until about 6-7 weeks, then he started liking both the swing and bouncer.

  • You have given me hope :) We did break out the playmat yesterday and she seems to enjoy that though. I still don't get anything done though because I want to play with her!
