First time mume to DD 24wks.
I cuddle her lots. She doesn't seem to like being anywhere else for long e.g. cot or bouncy chair.
So if I'm using my laptop or watching tv, she's just snuggled up with me.
I'm sleeping in her room. I often let her fall to sleep next to me and either transfer her to the cot or let her stay there all night. (Its a double bed and she lies on top of the duvet in her sleeping bag.)
We don't have any kind of routine. She naps on me when she gets tired. She comes up to bed with me when I go or we go up at about 9pm for a bath, massage, feed then she goes to sleep.
I feed her if she cries.
We haven't bought a pram/buggy. I just put her in a baby carrier when I want to go out and about.
I guess that makes me quite lazy, but she seems happy. She's a very smiley baby.
She's recently got really clingy and I'm starting to panic that I've really cocked up.
Sat up here in bed feeling quite teary. She's fast asleep next to me.
Maybe I should go and get some baby books from the library and pull myself together...
