Which one would you buy?

Question

Baby will almost be three months on Christmas and we're thinking of either giving him a baby swing or a jumper (I know he can't use the jumper right away). We can't afford both. Which one would you get? I obviously have no idea if he will like either and I can't test them before. We live many hours from the closest baby store, and we're the first among our friends and family to have children. We do have a bouncer, but it doesn't vibrate or swing, it's very simple. We also have a walker, but I've read they're bad for their hips. But wouldn't the jumper be bad too then? We have a doorway jumper, but we don't really have a doorframe for it. Any advice? 
The swing and jumper we're thinking of:

Answer

Baby will probably outgrow the swing by then. My baby was crawling at 4 months and walking by 7 months. I would’ve wasted money on a swing.

Answer

I would opt for the skip hop activity center than the jumper, because I hear the jumper can affect the hips and legs. Plus it can be used as a table later on.

Answer

Swing until good head control, jumper after.  Find second hand and then you can do both! I wouldn’t have wanted to do without either.

Answer

My daughter was 2 months old on Christmas and we bought her a swing. Best decision ever. It helped her fall asleep during the day and was something different for her to do throughout the day, we’d move it to whichever room we were in and it would also occupy her more while I was trying to clean or shower since her swing had noises/music and lights!

Answer

Jumper!! My son LOVED his. The swing was a waste but the jumper he practically broke it he used it so much.

Answer

I would disagree with those saying your 3 month old won’t use the swing. My son is almost 3 months and loves to sit in the swing. It just depends on the baby. I also think that those activity centers aren’t comparable because they can’t stand for too long in them due to the danger it poses to walking later on. But the swing can be used quite often. I honestly would do the swing and maybe just buy one of those “sit me up” activity centers that sit on the ground. They’re like $40 and less dangerous to their hips and legs.

Answer

My 3.5 month old loves his swing! I don’t remember when my 2 year old started using a jumper when he was little, but I’d guess 5/6 months

Answer

If you want a swing I would recommend getting it earlier than 3 months. You honestly might NEED a swing LOL my son would not calm down unless he was being pushed in his stroller or in the swing as a newborn. 
You also don't need to get your 3 month old anything big for christmas 🤷 he won't remember it??? He also may not like the jumper. I have a 3 month old. He likes the walker but the jumper like you picture doesn't work for him. I work stick to maybe little toys or clothes for him. They will LOVE little toys by that age like teething toys and stuff like can grab. 
But swing.... Get that for whens they are firstborn...

Answer

We stopped using our swing around 3/4 months, so I would go with the jumper as you will use it longer.

Answer

The jumper.  My babies loved it and about half of the babies dont even like the baby swing anyway.
