Sleeping slumped over in swing....

DD really sleeps well in her swing for her afternoon naps, but she ends up totally slumped over with her head touching the tray. I've tried putting pillows/burp cloths in there to prop her head up but nothing works.

My parents visited over the weekend and are really concerned that over time it could do major nerve damage to have her slumped over for 2 hours a day. I agree although it's hard to give it up since the 2 hours really give me some time of my own to catch up on things! What can I do?

I bought an Eddie Bauer head support from BRU. It is very big and firm enough to support DS's head plus it has some piece inside that allows me to bend different areas so I can really get his head straight. I love it!

As much as you want to get things done, I think her health is a bit more important. Maybe try one of the head supporters like the carseat has or try to get her to nap in a bouncy or something else. Good luck Chat Icon

Does the seat lay back any farther? Sometimes you can adjust the seat of the swing to lay them back or sit them up?

we use a cloth diaper rolled up and placed to the side. but i agree, you should see if the swing goes back any further.
