OK I'm going spare and at risk of suffering from postnatal depression trying to figure out what to do with my 2 wk old dd and 20mth old ds. Especially when they are both crying at the same time! But then it occurred to me that lots of people do it - so can you tell me your answers to the following to give me some ideas pleeese? Even if you only answer one it will help!
What do you do with your toddler when you are:
bfing your baby
putting baby down for a nap (upstairs)
giving baby a bath
What do you do with your baby when your toddler is:
having a bath
needing help to go potty
eating a meal and needing supervision
being put down for a nap/bed
having some 'mummy time'
What do you do with both when you are:
doing the housework
making dinner/lunch
clearing up after meals
doing deskwork
It just seems like i am constantly putting ds in the playpen while I deal with dd, and he starts crying, or dd in the cot while i deal with ds and she starts crying!
Thank you in advance
