I only stopped putting her in the swing at about 10 weeks, when the swing would stimulate her rather than make her sleepy. That was also around the time i started a schedule and worked on getting her to nap in her crib.

I really think that in the beginning, you gotta do what you gotta do. Especially if they are having problems sleeping. Your LO is still young so don't worry too much!

DD was 3.5 months by the time she stopped taking naps in the swing. I think her longest nap in it was like 6 hours!

My son slept in his swing for virtually every nap from birth to 4 months. He was not (and still is not) a good napper unless in the car or swing. He took killer naps in his swing though! He's 5 months and sometimes out of desperation I go to the swing but now he rarely sleeps longer in the swing than he would otherwise sleep in his crib.

She stop liking the swing when she could turn over consistenly at 5 months!

LO took some great naps in her swing, I loved that thing. At about 3 1/2 months we started weaning her off of the swing, and into her crib and we were done with the swing a little after 4 months. main reason was because we were going to travel with her, so I figured it was a good time to start getting her used to napping in a crib.

Ummm..... I think my LO was 8 months!

my baby refuses to nap in the swing - I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. she'll nap in her crib, bassinet or on my bed (with me there)..or in her bouncer now. but that swing was expensive, man!!

I say use it if she loves it!
