I have the third one you posted about. I never wanted a swing and tried every other smaller option. But I broke down and accepted a second hand swing identical to the third one you posted and it was a total game changer. There is a huge difference between the true swinging motion side to side and the from-the-bottom swinging motion. Anyhow... I found the swing to be safe and I'm going to use it again for #2. Not looking forward to it taking up so much floor space in my tiny home, but it truly was worth it in my opinion.

After checking out Lucies list, we ended up getting this one:

We loved the small footprint, the movability, and the fact that it doubled as a bouncer. The seat is large and round, and DD napped in it a lot (we didn't have a rock n play, and she slept in a flat bassinet - so this was great when she was a little stuffed up and needed to sleep slightly inclined.)

Its is also battery powered or plugs in, so again we could have it anywhere. (I even put it in the bathroom so I could shower a few times!)

I guess the only drawback is that it only swings in one direction - but DD never complained!
