I've got a toddler who is 3, and a baby who is 7 weeks old.
Toddler is obviously a bit jealous and wants my attention a million times more than she used to want it. She asks me to play from the minute she gets up until she goes to bed. As soon as she notices I'm not holding the baby, she will ask me to play.
If I'm totally honest, I'm sick to death of playing "monkeys jumping on the bed" all day and I'm really struggling to pretend I've got any enthusiasm left for these games. She's a very switched on toddler and will ask me why I'm bored or don't want to play, which leaves me feeling awful.
Does everyone else play all day with their child?? And am I the only one who is bored of playing? I just feel like there isn't time to play in between the baby and all other household chores, but I try my best to play properly about 3/4 times a day.
