How many mommas let their babies sleep in a rock n play? I know you're not supposed to, but my…

I did for about 3 months just make sure you do tons of tummy time

Why aren't you supposed to?

@floress_j it causes flat head and can result in your baby wearing a helmet

@floress_j, I'm not really sure. I've heard increased risk of SIDS.

Oh i see.. @firefly @mommy.of.2. I'm going to have to deffinetely look that information up. Thanks!

@floress_j tons of tummy time and you'll be okay!

mine too. he's 2months old and only sleeps in the swing at night

I was warned that the transition from a rock and play to a crib was AWFUL so I stayed far far away.

Tummy time does not prevent a flat head by the way. My son has torticollis which caused a flat spot, regardless of how much tummy time he did when he was awake. He now has a helmet and it's not because of a rock and play. It's because you're told to place your baby on their backs for sleep and if a baby can't turn their head one way due to a muscle issue (even with force by parents) then a flat spot is inevitable.

@bella91, My first only slept in her swing too... but all the recommendations are constantly changing! I'm always worried I am doing something wrong!

might me a good read http://kckidsdoc.com/dear-fisher-price.html

my cousins baby slept in his for the first 4 months and his head is almost completely flat. I wouldn't suggest it

my son slept in his swing until he was four months old, h had reflux so the incline helped and the movement knocked him out.
