Baby rocker

Dear all experienced mothers, do you think if baby rocker is necessary? Is it useful and should I get one ? I’m planning to let my mum takes care of my son after my maternity leave (4 mths). My mum insisted on getting the traditional sarong rocker so that it is easier for her to take care of the baby. Is there any alternatives other than the traditional rocker? Should the baby practices certain sleeping habits during the first 4 months so that he can sleep more independently when my mum takes care of him ? Please share your experiences pls! Thanks! #advicepls #firstbaby #pleasehelp

I didn’t use the rocker as I didn’t want my baby to be dependent on it to sleep. I ended up being the human rocker. I can see how it’ll be easier for your mum.. she’s after all older. I suppose you can try other methods while you’re still on leave and play by ear. Every baby is different, so it’ll be hard to predict. Some parents are even able to sleep train their babies.

hi! I didn't use a rocker for my kid and I don't think it's necessary. I do believe good sleep habits are important from the start so that baby will sleep more independently throughout!

very useful but it depends. my baby didnt really sleep on it until he is 2 months old.
