She has only used it a few times and the batteries are already dead. They were new batteries too. Ugh!

    In our papasan swing about 3-4 weeks and it is used a ton.

    Get a charger. Best $20 ever spent.

    I've had it for 3 months and replaced them twice.  We use rechargeable batteries.

    Yeah I was thinking of buying a charger. Do you need to buy special batteries that can be charged or charge any brand?

    Wow, I can't believe they died that fast! I have a Graco swing and we STILL haven't changed out the batteries, and it's been 4 months! She doesn't use it a TON, but she has definitely had a lot of swing time, and she likes it on full power too, WITH the sound! I second pp, invest in rechargeable  batteries! :)

    yes, special batteries for charger.  we haven't replaced our swing batteries even once yet, but it's kinda rare that we actually have it swinging.

    We have the FP My Little Lamb swing and have never changed the batteries (in almost 5 months.)  He uses it daily.

    This is making me think there is something wrong with the swing. The vibration part still works fine but when I turn on the swing it moves so slow and then dies. It is a graco deco one

    OMG that's terrible that they only lasted that long!  We have the Fisher Price Laugh & Learn Swing & after 2.5 months of daily use, it's still going on the same batteries.  We use Energizer batteries.  DH swears they last longer than Duracell or any others, for what it's worth.

    my swing can either run on batteries or via a plug in the wall! we chose to plug it into the wall too many other things always need batteries for her!

    We have a Graco swing and have only changed the batteries once in the last 4 months.  He uses the swing every day at least 2-3 hours for a nap.  The stupid swing now squeaks though.
