Napping location

During the day DD naps best in her bouncy seat.  Do you think that is an issue at all or would you just let her sleep where ever she sleeps best?  DH thinks she is going to get so used to that we won't be able to get her to sleep anywhere else.  But I think as long as she's sleeping, it's fine.  Am I wrong in thinking that?  He seems to think it would be bad for her health to sleep in the bouncer so often.  It's hard to get her to nap at times, so if she'll sleep in there I'm all for it I guess.  But tell me if I'm wrong.

    I either use the pack n play, bouncer or swing...  I try to switch it around.  But I dont think it will hurt using just her bouncy seat.

    I think it's fine. Maybe try to put LO in the crib or PNP every once in awhile.  Up until she was 6.5 months old, my LO would only nap in our arms.  Occassionally we'd have success in her bouncer and maybe 2-3 times in the PNP.  After some sleep training we had success moving naps to the crib and it's been awesome.  I say do what works for now!

    I have a friend who is a physical therapist for babies. She says they shouldn't be in a bouncer more than 20 minutes at a time because it can lead to the flat head/weird neck muscle stuff. That is primarily why she sees little tiny PT patients...

    But as for me? I say let them sleep wherever they'll sleep. Just make sure she's getting lots of tummy time on your chest.

    I guess that's kind of what DH was thinking.  I'll have to try to get her to sleep more in her bassinet if she will.  She is fine in at night so it may not be too hard.
