He'll let us swaddle his arms in the swing and he'll take an epic nap (super helpful for those days and sometimes nights when he just won't sleep). He doesn't try to roll, and without his arms, he can't sit up. I look forward to packing it up soon though, that thing takes up a lot of room! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-505607 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 14:11:42 +0000 Weagle 505607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never really used the swing. She wasn't a huge fan of the bouncer either, but she got so strong and wiggly that I didn't feel comfortable using it after 5 months or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504900 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 09:38:46 +0000 loveisstrange 504900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We packed away the swing at 6 months and she still loved it, she had just learned to get out of it.</p> <p>The bouncer was like... 2 months? She wasnt super interested in it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504886 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 09:33:10 +0000 lavender 504886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She loved her swing the first 3 mths and and would long naps, by mth 5 she was over it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504749 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 08:02:08 +0000 littlek 504749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO never got into the swing or bouncer. It was a waste of money for us. Hopefully our next LO likes them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504686 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 02:59:40 +0000 Bao 504686@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@betsyboop: yes she loves the jumperoo too! I think she may be getting over the swing and bouncy here soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504659 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 01:09:59 +0000 lovehoneybee 504659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh my LO has never gotten into the swing. He liked the bouncer for a while, but lost interest in it around 4.5 months. He'll still go in it sometimes, but usually starts throwing a fit after 5 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504636 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:03:45 +0000 lemondrop 504636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He is a year and still needs the swing from time to time to fall asleep (tonight, for one). Thank goodness it goes to 30 lbs! He grew out of the bouncer between 6-7 months though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504576 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:53:51 +0000 pinkcupcake 504576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used the swing until she was about 4 months old. She liked it alright as a newborn, but hated it as she got older. The bouncer we used until she was able to sit up on her own (around 7 months, I think?). She loved it and we only stopped using it b/c it became dangerous once she could sit up unassisted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504535 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 22:25:50 +0000 betsyboop 504535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we got rid of our swing at around 4 or 4.5 months. We have the baby bjorn bouncer and I still use it once in a while but I think that bouncer can accommodate older/bigger babies.<br /> Maybe your LO is ready for an exersaucer or jumper? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-outgrow-the-swingbouncy#post-504476 Mon, 14 Jan 2013 21:48:25 +0000 Bao 504476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is only 4.5 months so she is still enjoying her swing and bouncy, but I noticed she is now pulling her head and neck up to look around. It made me wonder how much longer she will be interested in them for. How long did your LO use their swing and/or bouncy for? </p>
