Reccomend your swing please

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months
We have the Boppy travel swing and at first he would sit in it for about 30 mins until he would start fussing. Now, he won't even let me put him in it at all. I always hear about baby's loving their swings... maybe he's not a swing man? Or maybe its just this swing? He does love sitting in his carseat so maybe its the position? Any thoughts or recommendations are appreciated!!

    It took 6 weeks before DD took to her swing.  She has a Graco one.  Can't remember style.  It's brown with a leaf pattern and owls hanging from it.  Now she can sleep in there sometimes as long as 3 hours!

    Oh my God, our favorite baby item is the Fisher Price My Little Lamb swing. I actually chose it because it's neutral and cute - no crazy colors that clash with my decor - but it has turned out to be fabulous. LO is 9 days old and LOVES it.

    we have the Graco Sweetpeace Soothing Center (https://www.diapers.com/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?productid=21020 ). It's the best swing I've found and is specially designed for colic. It swings in an arc motion to mimic a mother's rocking motion. It can do side to side, front to back, has adjustments for reclining the seat. It has play music, quiet time music, womb sounds, 6 speeds, and you can plug your Ipod into it too. The seat has toys, a swaddle blanket attached, and a canopy, and vibrates. The best part is that you can pop the seat out and put your carseat into it so they can rock in the carseat if they've fallen asleep without disturbing them. The seat can also be used on the floor as a bouncer type seat...

    So with alllll of those features we were sold! We LOVE it! It will only take a Graco carseat, don't know which seat you have? HIH!

    This exactly. It is the Cadillac of swings, and the only thing that works when Maddy is having her "Midnight Maddness" and cannot be soothed and I am exhausted. Its worth the $, 100%.

    But do keep in mind, some babies do not like swings! I would test it out at BRU before you buy. And the carseat thing is so great for when we've had a rough day and she falls asleep in the carseat...you just pop it right in w/o disturbing baby.

    i'm going to go to babies r us and try out the graco swing and the fisher price lamb swing. i like the idea of being able to put the car seat in the graco swing but the price tag is pretty hefty. thanks for the advice ladies!
