Cradle Swing Update with Pictures
Thank you everyone for the suggestions and pictures of cradle swings!
I tried to find a used one on Craig's List/Ebay, but alas, all the other sleepless moms had already beat me to it LOL. Me, 3 kids and a screaming ride to Toys-R-Us later, I purchased the Fisher Price Little Lamb swing. I sat him in the display model and manually pushed it. He stopped crying. I tried to figure out a way to carry the display model to the car while it kept swinging, but no such luck. It's definitely much better than the old front-to-back swing we have in our attic.
So while we're still in the prime of colic and reflux, Everett and I have enjoyed a small break these past few days and I am soooo thankful to Fisher Price, Duracel and Erika (for the original suggestion):
After sitting quietly for a few minutes, Everett slept for 20 minutes in his new swing last night and I enjoyed eating a hot dinner!
Everett slept another 20 minutes in it today so I could shower (which EVERYONE appreciates).

I have the same one for Max. It really is a god send! I put him in it when I shower and when I get out he is always sleeping. If I can't get him to sleep I put him in it and it works its magic powers for me.
So happy for you and Everette. So great when you find something that works!!!!
