Baby swing

Hi , baby is nearly 3 months and fighting sleep still through the day (he co-sleeps at night). We do contact naps but even then he fights any long sleeps which is what he needs, he's soooo grumpy. He needs to be moving the whole time to get any length of sleep. Any suggestions of a mechanical swing which has decent movement? (not just slight but quite vigorous swings?) Thanks so much , from an exhausted first time mummy x

It's a long time since my DS was like this but god I remember it like yesterday. Hope you get some answers.

Not sure about swings, but the Baby Bjorn style bouncers you can bounce quite vigorously with your foot whilst you eat/read/whatever, but it isn't mechanised. The 'Rockit' pram attachment might also help, it can give a pretty good shake.

Definitely look for the bouncer secondhand if you can – they're quite pricey new, but last really well, so there are usually a few about on Marketplace, Gumtree, etc. We got our rockit secondhand as well, but that might need more luck.
