Swing for an older baby?

Question

We currently have a Graco swing that is supposed to go to 9 months but my LO is quickly outgrowing it. As a SAHM I rely on it to keep him occupied while I shower/etc. so I can't live without it! Lol. What swings work well for bigger babies?

Answer

As my son got older we started using the skiphop jumper and activity center. Kept him contained while I shower, and much more entertaining for him.

Answer

They don’t make swings for bigger babies because once they can sit up, it becomes too dangerous. They can lean over and fall out. A jumperoo or a pack n play can contain a bigger baby. 
I wait until my baby naps, my husband comes home, or I put her in the pack n play.

Answer

You rely on a swing to keep him entertained at 9 months old? lol I refused to buy a swing or rocker. We've never had one in our house so we've never used them. It's not something I recommend going out and purchasing. Especially at that age. And at that point, why not shower during nap time? lol I've never showered with my daughter awake. It makes zero sense to me to do that. I shower during her morning nap. And throughout the day, she plays independently with her toys in her play yard if I have to get something done.

Answer

i just wait until he takes a nap to take a shower
