Rocker throughout the night

in Babies: 0 - 3 Months
So I got the fisher price rock n play snuga monkey and I was wondering what are your thoughts on a baby sleeping in this all night. I don't think it's safe due to some articles I've read but some people say it's fine. I'm still pregnant and want to hear from young infant mothers. Thanks

    My LO started sleeping in a rnp from week 1 to now at week 10. It's great.

    My daughter slept in a RnP for the first 4 months and it was awesome. Wish I had one for my first kid.

    My pediatrician said a RNP is fine to sleep in for up to 6 weeks. She said after that, it could cause baby's head to get flat due to baby's positioning.

    This can happen anywhere a baby is on the back of their head a lot.

    My DD is 3 weeks and is sleeping pretty well at night in the RNP.

    We had our DD in hers until about 5 1/2 weeks. She slept well and it was nice to have her in the room with us.

    I've read negative articles about it too and am a little nervous about it. However, my baby has reflux and spits up any time he is flat on his back. We've kept him in the rock n play to sleep since he was born (7 weeks now) to keep his head elevated. Friends have said their pediatricians say it's perfectly fine.

    My pedi said it was too. RnP's are especially good for reflux babies.

    My LO is 3 weeks and has been sleeping in it for a week now. It helps her sleep better I think. Haven't asked the dr about it but I know several people who have had their babies use it to sleep- esp helps with reflux.
