    We have the fisher price "my little lamb" cradle and swing. It's great for refluxy babies because it can swing side-to-side (it has 3 ways to swing). The little chair that DS sits in also has 2 positions - one more sitting, the other more lying. It has a number of speeds as well, and a little mobile that rotates (but can be turned off) as well as some musical options (or silence). The one thing it doesn't do is vibrate. I have no regrets in opting for this swing despite the price and the fact it chews batteries. I do know of someone who had someone fairly handy convert a battery operated swing to one that runs on electricity but I have no idea how they did it.

    we have a bright starts bouncer and a fisher price i-glide swing...

    to be honest we love both!!

    the swing was fabulous from day one, DD is getting a bit "over" it now, and likes to sit in her bouncer now instead.

    thanks so much, so helpful!! but also so many good options, its tricky when all babies are different and like different things, DD2 had reflux and I'm not sure if this one will be the same or not!

    if i could do it all again, i would have bought a baby hammock. no plastic, no batteries needed, no annoying tinny tunes.

    SWING!!! It is a lifesaver with my DD... most of the time she will go back to sleep in the swing but not the bouncer...
