4moms mamaRoo Plush Infant Seat Moves Like You + Giveaway {$239.99 ARV}

I have been following the hype on the mamaRoo Infant Seat for the past year, and now that baby girl is due to arrive soon, we get to enjoy one.  Both of my other babies adored being bounced and rocked side to side. In fact, that is the only way Evan would quiet down. He didn't sit in bouncers or swings and many nights my husband and I took late night car rides to get him to fall asleep. I wish more than ever I would have had a mamaRoo at the time. 4moms sent us the Paint Dots mamaRoo Plush for our newest addition.

"We’ve never seen a parent vibrate like a bouncy seat or swing like a swing. But we’ve seen thousands of parents scoop their little ones up in their arms and bounce and sway. And that’s what the mamaRoo does. It moves like you do."

Features-

• Five unique motions based on real parental movements
• Built-in nature sounds and an MP3 hookup
• Three reversible toy balls (original mamaRoo comes with art patterns; plush mamaRoo has monsters)
• Fabric (both plush and nylon) is easy to remove and machine washable
• Seat reclines to any position
• Detects obstructions, won't run if recline is unlocked
• Suitable from birth to 25 pounds
• Discontinue use once child can sit up unassisted
• Product weighs 14 pounds. LWH: 22.3" x 8.6" x 26.5"
• To be green, it doesn't run on batteries, just wall power

They're right - have you ever seen a baby that doesn't quiet down quicker from bouncing/swaying than vibrating? I've been surrounded by babies my whole life and they all like to be held with one arm to my side and bounced while swaying. The mamaRoo doesn't just move one way, it actually has five different movements.

The mamaRoo was much easier to put together than a bouncy seat that I had to assemble. It arrived in a box like this and took less than 5 minutes to have it up and ready to go.

The seat has an infinite amount of recline positions. It goes all the way back for sleeping infants, or sits up this far as baby gets older.

The fabric is extremely soft and plush. 4moms put a lot of thought into all of the mamaRoo features. The fabric quickly unzips and unsnaps from the frame and can be thrown in the washing machine!

Another awesome feature is that the mamaRoo requires no batteries! It comes with and A/C adapter, so you simply plug it into the wall to get your little one bouncing and swaying. This is the "control center". Again, they have thought of everything. I can't think of one thing I would add!

Our new baby girl isn't due to arrive for a few more weeks, so I borrowed my cousin little boy - Baby Z. Baby Z was born last month and is super sweet, but like most babies, he also likes to be bounced. When we first put him in the mamaRoo, he wasn't too sure about it, but quickly decided that he liked it. His favorite movement at the time seemed to be the Kangaroo. I put a star over his face for privacy. His mommy gave me permission to post his face, but I only feel comfortable publishing my own children's faces.

Baby Z's brother, J, was extremely interested in the mobile. Within about 3 seconds, he figured out that you could take the soft balls out and he was ready to play ball. You can switch them around so that the colorful sides are facing baby, you can have the black and white side facing baby, or you can do a combination.
