What do you do during the day?

I hope this doesn’t sound silly, I have a 5 week old and my day just feels like I’m in a blur of breast feeding, burping and him sleeping on me all day unless I have a visitor over to break it up a bit. What do people do all day with their babies at this age?

I’m the same!! It gets more fun when you can go to playgroups and stuff and get into a routine.

Same here too!

Same, I’ll go for a walk if it’s not raining. I’ll try to get her on the mat if she’s awake but mainly just feeding and cuddles really ☺️

I get out as much as possible! Today was in central London to meet friends for lunch. Tomorrow have MumFitWonder yoga then baby sensory. Wednesday baby massage then an Osteo appointment for baby, Thursday sing & sign then cafe or lunch with other mums, Friday infant feeding team group & will probably pick my toddler up a bit early from nursery and go to the park

I’m exactly the same! I try and do tummy time/sensory cards during a wake window at some point in the day if I can. But it doesn’t always happen!

This is me! My boy is 5 weeks today and I keep panicking I am not doing enough with him. By the time he's fed and changed it seems time for his nap. I try and squeeze in some tummy time etc but I wonder if he is getting enough stimulation!

I now go to two baby groups a week. He mainly sleeps through them 🤣 but I get to have a cup of coffee and talk to other mums. Sometimes I'll venture into town for a walk around the shops and maybe a drink. Other than that, it's mainly feed, change, contact nap and some tummy time.

I have 3 years old so we go to a play group on the day when he is at home, and play with our neighbour in the evening. If I have just the newborn, I'll probably just stay at home and try to go for a walk. That's it
