Newborn routine?

Any tips for getting through the day? I’m interested to see what you find works.
I’m 37 weeks pregnant. My eldest is turning 4 the same week I’m due. I was considering sending her back to nursery but feel like with all of the social distancing measurements being implemented it will no longer be the place she remembers. At least when she starts reception come September at a new school it will just seem the ‘norm’ there. Hopefully by then lockdown rules will have eased and there will be the option of attending such things like baby groups, play parks and seeing family members at home but in the meantime how are you keeping busy??

We are just chilling. Toddler is helping around the house and with nappies etc and spending lots of time in garden, watering plants, toddler digging etc. Lots of time for newborn snuzzles too. We have a walk around fields in the local vicinity usually every day and we've just bought a big slide for the garden.

My baby is 7 weeks now and quite frankly, im only just over the shell shock of having a baby that im even considering doing anything.

I have my first 'group' tomorrow via zoom

Baby is 11 weeks old and we just kind of go with the flow and with whatever he wants.
We try and get out for a walk once a day and spend the rest of the time playing, changing, feeding and cuddling. Plenty of box sets on the TV for me!
