How to split time between newborn and toddler?

I’m having a hard time giving enough time to my toddler. Feel like a bad mom for it. How do you split you time enough?

Right now it’s hard for me too bc I’m still healing but I try to get hugs and minimal play time in once I put the baby down to sleep. Or if I have his favorite shows playing on the TV, I’ll hold his hand and/or sing along to the songs playing. He loves that. Or I’ll use my other arm and put it around him on the couch while I’m holding the baby with the other arm. It is very hard during this time especially while healing and breastfeeding but try to remember it’s only temporary. You’re not a bad mom!

Baby wearing is my saving grace right now. My toddler was sick as well when we got home from hospital so was only able to see him for a few minutes a day. But definitely more difficult than I thought it would be.

Very hard guys.

@Charlie mine was sick too. Didn’t see him for a couple of days. He’s with my parents
