Is anyone else basically just looking after baby and watching tv?

Literally been story of my life for the last 4 weeks🤣
I'm exactly the same, either contact naps or feeding and watching TV or on my phone, only time I can do stuff is if I put her in the sling
Yes, and if we are out alot in the day then the evening is gone where he's cluster feeding
@Natasha exactly the same 😅 I tried to put him down after he fell asleep while feeding but he would start crying as soon as I did it so at 12.30 I gave up, put him in a sling and went for a walk... he slept for 2.5 hours 😅
@Sonia they sleep so long in the sling or contact napping but as soon as I put her down she's wide awake 😅
Pretty much completed Netflix by now 🤣. Baby’s 5 weeks old. We also went out to the supermarket, parks or health related appointments 🤣. We’ve visited grandma once. I rely on my partner to drive us as I still haven’t fully recovered from my c-section but as soon as I can drive we are going places 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Ewa my little one hates to be in a pram or a car seat too 😅
@Sonia my little one’s been asleep for every outing so far so he hasn’t actually seen outside haha!
This is totally ok and understandable at this stage. The only reason I've been going out is because I have a toddler, when he was a baby so I only had the one I was definitely just napping, eating, breastfeeding and watching TV in the early weeks. I'm sure this baby would love me to do this as he just wants to be cuddled 24/7 but unfortunately he has a big brother who needs to burn energy 😅 You will be able to get out more and do more as baby gets older, enjoy the newborn snuggles.
Glad to see all these responses as I was feeling so bad for all the TV I'm watching!
Maybe we should start a thread for tv recommendations 🤣
I done this with my first! Now got a 2 year old and it’s a must to be out the house atleast once every day! I tend to be out walking or at the park etc for about 2/3 hours and feel so much better than I did with my daughter. Getting out is helping my MH so so much! It breaks my day up too. Totally normal though when you can, I do wish I could have a day in the house just chilling sometimes 😂 x
Umm she’s 7 weeks today and that’s still all I do 🤣🤣🤣
Only in the last stint before I pass out 😅

Yep! I'm 5 weeks in and still spend most of the time on the sofa!
Yes !! It’s good to know I’m not alone!
Yes! Enjoy it because there will be no time for that in the future 🤣
With my first absolutely when she was a newborn, when she got older I liked to get out on walks twice a day with her! I don’t get time to watch anything this time around either a 2 year old and 6 weeks old 😂 Enjoy it 🥰
Yep! 95% of my time I'm watching tv and holding baby whilst he eats or sleeps 🥹😂
