SWING...all the way, and not the tavel swings, the real stand-up ones. That is the ONLY way I got any type of housework done!!

My son could not live without his vibrating bouncy seat, and I certainly couldn't either. It made me getting time to shower, and cook meals much easier.

And for the gripe water, I used it for my son for hiccups, and I just used a dropper, that you'd get from the pharmacy/pharmacist. But, a little bit of water/breastmilk/formula will have the same effect. It's just getting them to regulate their breathing.

Both of my kids LOVED their Jumperoo, but when they were older.. They also liked their teethers, even when they werent teething.. They both HATED the wrist and foot rattlers..

our travel swing he loves it!

jumperoo, Cooper loves it so much. He hates his swing and never really used his bouncy seat. I used gripe water cause Cooper got hiccups and colic so bad when he was younger. It was a life saver and we measured it witrh the dropper it came with.

My oldest had a fringe blanket never let go of and still sleeps with. My second had a stuffed tiger. and my youngest has a stuffed bear she calls (goggie)

Swing and bouncy seat!!!
Also, teethers are AMAZING!

her sweet peace at that age   now it's her stuffed moose made by lamaze

At that age?? Swing all the way!! H e has the Rainforest cradle swing and I would've died of exhaustion leaving behind the world's most disgusting house had Aidan not had it... now? it's the jumparoo...

Swing (travel swing.. Much easier to move around the house and take outdoors).

Bouncy Seat

I wish I would of hand a sling when she was smaller so I could of carried her around the house or taken for a walk (we have a travel system..but taking the carrier and the stroller was a bit much).

His bouncer!

My girls loved the jumperoo but we used it from about 4mths and up when they were really little it was the bouncy seat that was the lifesaver, I used gripe water but not for hiccups just be careful not to give it to baby too fast it takes their breath away , it's a very strong licorice flavor from what I remember and my daughter choked pretty badly when I accidently gave it to her too fast.

MAM pacifiers - she won't take anything else - and fuzzy blankets (she likes to be on the floor a lot better than in the swing or bouncy)

Must remember to put new batteries in when I get home from work, Though my son loves it when it sounds demented from dying batteries, almost as much as when it's normal.

Grandma christened ours "Morse" because she kept thinking it was a SeaMonkey, so Monkey-Horse got combined into Morse, when she'd try to correct herself.
