What do you get up to with your little one? How often do you stay in/go out?

I have a 9 week old and would love to know what you get up to on a normal day? We do things like songs, the play mat & bouncer, books etc

I have a 12w old boy, and first thing in the morning we’ll do some playtime on the mat with toys. After his nap we do some song time whilst getting him dressed for the day. We then head out for a long walk, and some days will have a baby club booked (swimming, sensory, or the cinema). Home early afternoon for a nap, then we’ll do tummy time and more mat play. From then it’s just survival and trying to keep him entertained until bed 😂 so that might be me doing chores and him in his trip trap watching me with music on. He’s only just started showing interest in toys as he can gran them. He doesn’t really like the bouncer so I keep that in the bathroom for when I’m getting ready (he’ll be in it for short periods) and he has no interest in books yet, he just tries to escape lol. We just chop and change from him being on my lap, to his trip trap, etc x

I find I have to go out at least once a day otherwise I go mad. When I say go out it might be a trip to the supermarket, a coffee etc. I find staying on all day really tough. Everyone is different though. I do 2 classes a week as well which gets us out baby massage & swimming. Baby sensory we will start a bit later.

We go for an afternoon walk every day & he usually falls asleep so I get some time to relax when we get home. Otherwise we have black & white cards & bracelet/sock rattles I put on him in his bassinet that keep him occupied for a while, while there’s music on, or I’ll put him in his crib with his mobile on. We have a baby gym he enjoys also. I do need to do more tummy time with him though. We also go to a parent & baby group once a week.
