Hi
FTM here so apologies for silly question. My boy is 2.5 weeks old and generally doing very well eating/sleeping. He’s started to be more awake and alert after a feed, maybe 20-40 mins before he falls sleep or needs a nappy change.
During this time he is awake and content. But what should I do to keep him stimulated or entertained? Is he ok just to lie on his playmat or in sleepyhead and just chill out? Should I be holding him and talking to him? He’s obviously too young to see anything or hold anything. Just feel bad leaving him awake just staring around
My husband thinks I’m mad and it’s great the baby can just relax and chill and I shouldn’t constantly be in his face.
Thanks
