my son has done the same thing. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Both my kids have slept in their swing. Especially if they are stuffy. Don't be hard on yourself mana

 It does hurt anything to let her sleep in her swing for one night.

It's ok, at least she was sleeping and somewhere close and safe.

My daughter sleeps in the swing every night. I hate it but the pediatritian said that where ever she sleeps is fine for now. Don't be so hard on yourself.

My 9 month old sleeps in her swing every night, she refuses to sleep anywhere else. If I move her she wakes up screaming, so for now untill she outgrows this phase she seems to be going through that is where she will sleep. It's not a big deal.

As long as she is safe thats all that matters. You need your sleep to be the best mom you can be. My boys slept in a baby swing alot. And when they had colds their dr told me to have them sleep in their car seat strapped in. Dont worry.

My babies napped in the swing all the time.  They slept in the swing at night too if they were stuffy because being slightly elevated helped with congestion.  You are a good mom.  Baby was someplace safe, and you both got the sleep that you needed.  :-)
