Sleeping in swing?

Hi mommies!! Question. My daughter is 7 weeks old and she falls asleep in her swing sometimes. My mom freaked out when she saw that I let her sleep in her swing... Thoughs?

My daughter will be 7 weeks and tonight was the first time she has slept in her swing for more then 10 minutes. She actually slept in it for an hour and a half. I got dinner made took a shower and started laundry. I am glad she finally liked it.

Mine was in the swing asleep for 2 hours before the roomba bumped it and he woke up. Damn Roomba.

Thats what the swing is for. I totally let my Little Man nap in the swing.

Awesome I don't feel bad now lol idk my mom is old school and thinks LO should be attached to me at all times.

I hope there's nothing wrong with letting them sleep in the swing, because that's the only place my 5 1/2 week old LO will sleep! She LOVES her swing.

MY LO sleeps in her swing during the day all the time. It's the only way I get anything done.

Yep after the 330am feeding LO usually goes in the swing. He usually won't sleep in the bassinet after that feeding.

Yea my kid pretty much lives in her swing. I'm going to try and wean her off of it soon, but that's only because I don't want to deal with the transition once I'm back working. Team whatever gets baby to sleep!

Ben sleeps in the swing a good bit too. If I put him in his crib he only sleeps 1-2 hrs, if he's in the swing he sleeps a solid four. So my compromise is that he does his first stretch in the swing then we do the crib for the rest of the night. I know it's not great but I neeeeed some sleep!

Ds1 loved the swing too. He napped in it all the time and once I transitioned him to the crib for naps we'd use the swing for him to sleep in when he was congested. He was a big baby and it was quite a sight to see him in that swing when he was clearly too big for it...hehe. anyway, he's turned out to be just a fine sleeper.

I let my kiddo sleep in the swing and the RNP. He actually really does not sleep in his pnp or his crib. He hates to be swaddled so I have come to the conculsion this little guy loves smaller sleeping spaces and that is ok with me.

All my first DD would sleep in was the swing. I seriously thought she would never sleep anywhere else then around 6 weeks we transitioned her to the crib and she was fine. Seriously, the swing was my best friend!
