    How many bouncy seats and swings do you have?
    I just bought my 3rd bouncy seat because the papasan chair got to be too small for my boys. I also have a bumbo seat and a swing. If the boys like the bumbo seat, I may get another one. My dh thinks I have way too much baby junk. What about you?

    Two bumbos, two exasaucers, one swing and one bouncy. They don't care for the bouncy or the swing now that they can't fit in it together. We use the bumbos and the saucers a ton, so its worth it to me.

    I have two papasans which we use all the time. I just got a swing and love it, and am thinking I might use another one. I also just got two bumbo seats as a gift, but my babies are a little small yet to use them. I know what you mean about all the stuff, but if it helps them to feel better, sleep more, it's worth it!

    We had one swing, two bouncies (well actually three, but only two at any one time), and a bumbo (briefly -- they didn't really like it).

    Later (4-9 months) we had an exersaucer, and from about 7-12 months we had a doorway jumper.

    If we'd had a bigger house, I would have liked two swings (at the beginning) and two exersaucers (later in the year). But we did fine with what we had. I think if you're using it and it's worth the space it takes up, it's not too much!

    We had two bouncers (one turned into a rocker for when they got older) and two megasaucers. We never had a swing or a bumbo, but we also have a small house so I didn't want to much stuff to clutter it.

    We have 2 bouncies, 2 swings, 2 bumbos, 1 floor gym, 1 exersaucer, and 1 jumperoo. I've been happy with our number choices.

    We have a TON! Some for upstairs and downstairs! 2 bouncers and 1 papasan. 2 cradle swings which we ALL love! They often nap in them! 2 exersaucers. 2 johnny jump ups. 2 bumbos. I know it is a ton of "stuff" but soon it will all be gone!

    We have two exersausers, one swing and 4 bouncy seats, two for before they could hold their heads up and two for before they can sit on their own. [​IMG]

    We started with one swing and had to get a second swing. We have one papasan and one infant/toddler rocker (also a bouncer). We have two bumbos and two boppys.

    Looking back I would have gotten the second bobby sooner.

    I'm debating whether to get two exersaucers or one exersaucer and one jumperoo - we are very space challenged.

    Also, my hubby wants to put some stuff away...but right now, they still use almost everything.

    We had/have 2 of everything...When they were little we had 2 bouncers, 2 swings, and 2 play mats. Now we have 2 exersaucers, 2 jumpers, 2 walkers and a superplay yard. They dont spend alot of time in their exersaucers, usually only first thing in the morning when they watch their cartoons but we usually are on the floor crawling and pulling up or in the superplay yard when mommy needs a break [​IMG]

    We are VERY space challenged too. My living room looks like a daycare! We only have 1500sq ft with 5 dogs, 1 cat and a 125 gallon fish tank (it is 6ft long!) Everything is in our living room including the couch, 2 recliners, 2 tables and the fish tank. I dont know how it all fits, thank goodness for big rooms!

    2 bouncies, 2 swings, 2 Bumbos, 1 exersaucer, 1 Jumperoo and we have used and loved it all. Small house for us too. We moved the dining room table upstairs and made the dining room "baby central" as my family lovingly calls it!

    One swing, two bouncies. Actually, I just decided yesterday to open the second bouncy. I wasn't sure if we'd use it, so was keeping it new to re-gift as needed. But I'm glad I opened it; they really like them and they're a good place to feed the babies.
    I use the Boppies as props, too. Thinking about Bumbo chairs but don't want to spend the money really. Ditto the Exersaucer.

    1 exersaucer, 1 hop-n-pop, 2 travel swings, 1 real swing, 1 kangarockaroo, 4 bouncies.

    We have a two story house and already owned 2 bouncies, 1 exersaucer, and 1 kangarockaroo. We bought two travel swings off craigslist for $10 each and I just hate them so much so we bought a real swing that plugs into the wall and LOVE IT. People gave us the rest and I couldn't refuse in case I need them. I will be SO GLAD to get rid of this CRAP because my home looks like I run a daycare.

    We have two bouncy chairs that I have loved, two bumbo chairs that they are starting to really enjoy. Two play mats but only use one, would like another one. Two swings as well, but only use one at a time. We have one exersaucer and one johnny jump up but may get one more of each if they both like it.

    Two swings and two bouncy seats. Mine never cared much for the bouncy seats so we really only used those to feed them solids at first. But we could not have survived without the two swings - they loved those and occasionally still go in them.

    We had two of the Carter's Cradle and Soothe bouncers. We can still use them and they go until 25 pounds, I think. We use them for feedings and when they watch TV.

    We had one swing - they never really like it.

    We had two bebe pods - we bought one at first and they both liked them, so we bought two.

    Excersaucers - we started with one and then got another one when they were about 6 months old.

    I went through 5 bouncey seats, because they kept breaking them when they kicked their feet. I had two Bumbo seats and only used one (I'm keeping one in case I have another baby).
