Here is what I like about it:
- it keeps him at a good angle for his reflux
- it is soft and well padded, and the padding can be removed and machine washed when he pukes on it
- I can move it around the house as needed
- it straps him in, so he can't fall out during the night when I am sleeping, and he can't wiggle himself flat during the night
- if we travel, it folds flat to fit easily in the car
Actually, if you know of a bigger kid infant swing, I would be interested in hearing about that as well.

I was actually thinking about this problem/scenario the other day. Is a bean bag chair an option? It would mold to his form and most have a wipe-down material. There are child size bean bag chairs, of course. What a little sweetie!
our phil & ted stroller has an attachment that you can buy to make it into a double stroller. but the attachment can also double as a bouncer and a toddler chair. it holds up to a 3 year old. i don't know if it's exactly what you are looking for but worth checking into here is the website link... http://www.philandteds.com/lazyted_index.htm
let me know what you think. loveyabunches aunt bee
FYI - These are some of the other options I am looking at. If anyone has used these, let me know how they would work for a 1 year old with frequently poor head control.

I think this is similar to what the therapist was telling me about this morning: a Soft Touch Sitter... the only problem being that it can take 5-6 months to come in... :-(
