xpost from Preg-What to keep/Return

My shower was this past weekend and we got 90% of the items on our registry plus things we did not register for.
I am going to BBB to return a few things and I am not sure which of these to keep/return.

-Fisher Price Lil Lamb Infant Seat
-Newborn Rock N Play
-MamaRoo Swing
-Snagubunny Swing

Our house is DEF not big enough for all this stuff & they are all so similar.
I would like to keep ONE of these at my parents since they will be watching DD when I go back to work.

which should I leave at their house?
which should I keep at mine?
which do I return?

TIA! so overwhelmeved!

IMO I would keep the snug a bunny swing AND Rock and Play at your house. My DS used them both for the first 8 month on a regular. you will want them for weekends and nights.
My DS HATED the mamaroo, he never used it. Total waste, it didn't move fast enough for him LOL. Are your parents going to have a crib or pack and play? I would also give them a swing to have if they are watching the baby FT.

Word for word, agree with everything above.

Rock and Play and snug a bunny definitely. My DS didn't care too much for his beautiful swing so that can be hit of miss.

My parents don't have a crib or PnP and will be watch DD FT. Should I buy a PnP for them? Or leave the rock & play with them?

As the previous post above said keep Rock n Play and Snug a Bunny...

I'd get a PnP for your parents house it will last longer for sleeping than the RnP and worse case the Rock N Play is easy to travel with so you can always bring it to their house

I would keep all of it.

Fisher Price Lil Lamb Infant Seat
-Newborn Rock N Play
-MamaRoo Swing
-Snagubunny Swing

but if you had to get rid of something I would get rid of the mamaroo. My daughter likes hte mamaroo but doesn't love it and its big so if you dont have a lot of space you might not want to keep it.

The Rock n Play you really should keep its the only thing my daughter sleeps in and it awesome that it easy to transport.

You will need a swing at your parents and something for her to sleep in PNP will last for a longer time than the RNP.

I thought the same thing. My house s tiny but I have definitely used the rock n play, the bouncer seat I have and the swing is a life saver. I would keep all of them and leave one of the swings at your parents.

I would buy a pak n play to keep at their house also...

thanks ladies! you guys are super helpful!
Ive decided to return the Mamaroo. Figured we could use the money and buy at least 1 convertible car seat.

I will leave the Fisher Price Lamb Seat at my parents & also buy a PnP for their house too!

Definitely keep the rock and play. No question there.

I returned the snugabunny swing and kept the mommaroo. Big mistake. DS did not care for the mommaroo and loved the swing when I put him in it at my friend's house.

My DS didn't really like the bouncy seat either but I know many kids who do.

My vote is for the RNP and the swing. The RNP is easy to travel with too. Life saving magical device.
