Is It safe for NewBorn to lie down in FisherPrice Rocker??

[angelwendy]

Hi All Mummy.... This morning my granny is nagging saying that my newborn should NOT sit inside the FisherPrice Rocker which i just bought last week....Reason is it will cause the back bone to be bend... which i think is not true... cause i got friends who let their baby lie & sit in there... so far no problem... & also i know the Rocker is for Infant & toddler....

Any mummy let their baby sit in this rocker before?? anything happen??

so far i seen many parents letting their NB babies lying on it. but i think no matter what products u r using, dont 'over-use' it. dont let ur NB baby lie on it for the whole day... =)

I let my baby lie in it when he is awake. When he sleeps I put him back to the cot. He likes to lie in it. It makes him really excited because of the toys dangling above him. Hehe.

So far he is ok. I don't think there's anything wrong with his spine. As long as the rocker says it's ok from 0+mth, it should be fine. But also, do notice if your baby looks uncomfortable in it. If so, then drag a little while longer before letting him sit in it again. Otherwise, I don't see what the problem is.

Thanks for the reply mummy... can tahan her nagging about this... keep saying is not good... then i told her.. i will let my boy lie for just a while.. not as if i will let him in it the whole day !!! anyway this rocker is very much the same as the older days rocker with holes in it... just that this is another type...

Hi angelwendy Mummy,

Guess all elderly are like this ba. They only believe in their old times.

I, myself, let my baby lie on those rocker too! Starting with the rocker with holes one then chg to the Fisherprice rocker chair that can be use till when he's a toddler. So far, he's doing fine and very active.

He loves the Fisherprice rocker so much and he enjoyed playing with the toys dangling above! :tlaugh:

i used to place my newborn in the fp rocker for her naps nowadays she gets cranky after lying for awhile.

I remember i also have this lucky baby rocker that she loves (after her night feeds she don't want to sleep i will place her inside) then she will slip off to lalaland. after that my friend commented that its bad for spine cos the lucky baby one is very curvy unlike fisherprice so i stop putting her inside although its really convenient

as long don't overdo it should be fine :001_302:

There are different versions of Fisher-Price rockers. I showed mine to my post-natal nurse and she said it is fine for my baby, as long as the use is limited every day.
