Do I need a swing/glider/rocker?

Question

So this is what I have (one of each):

Do I really need any of these? We live in a small space so my LO doesn't have to much space for all 3! Any of these you couldn't live without?? Also, my MIL bought me a bumper for the crib. Thinking about returning that as well. Thoughts?

Answer

Rock n play is a lifesaver.

Answer

The rock and play is the only thing my baby will sleep in for naps. And it folds for easy storage! Although I just keep mine open 24/7 bc it isn't too easy to open/close with baby in your arms lol

Answer

My husband and I have been living in an RV for about 9 months now ( thank goodness our house will be done soon)  and we have a 3 month old. We had a rock n play he slept in for the first 12 weeks and he preferred a glider to his swing. Talk about small spaces.

Answer

Anything that rocks and bounces. You only need one. Not only does baby like it but whenever you need to go grab something you can lay the baby in there strapped up while the device is moving and can help them fall asleep

Answer

U can always get a swing 2 in one with a bouncer and then mayb do the rock and play but the glider i find them boring for babys

Answer

Definitely return the bumpers. All I can say is there's not really any way to predict what your baby might like. I have that rock and play and my baby will not sit in it for more than 10 mins. If I put him in it when he's out cold, even with rocking and vibration on, he wakes up in 2 minutes. I've never had a swing, but I leaned my baby just wants something to look at and that's why he hates laying down. He LOVES his play mat (the center of it has blinking lights and plays music), and we got two fisher price seats that allow him to sit upright and look around (FP sit me up and the FP comfort curve bouncer). If you can borrow any of the items for a short period of time after your LO is born to help you figure out what they'll like, I highly recommend going that route.

Answer

It's been nice because my baby has bad reflux so it sits her up a bit. She can sleep in there while I nap on the couch. She doesn't like being in her pack and play during the day for some reason ha. Just make sure their head is turned and now tilted down like they tell you about car seat safety so they can breath easy!
