Babies: 0 - 3 Months

baby bouncer/shaken baby

I have a question that may be dumb.  I have a bouncer (link below).  My baby girl falls asleep well in it when I put her in and then bounce it with my foot placed on the metal.  She bobs up and down and her head wiggles a little.  She loves it and falls asleep.  The heaver i bounce it.. the faster she falls off to sleep.  

Could this lead to shaken baby syndrome?  I was just thinking about it.. she always seems fine after.  I am just wondering if you have to shake a baby really hard to cause it or if a bouncer being bounced up and down could cause it. 

Here is a link to what I am talking about.
