To be disgusted with my screen time usage

Upgraded my phone and hadn't noticed the screen time section before. Just had a notification that my daily average is 10 HOURS. I'm absolutely disgusted! I'm at home on mat leave with a little baby but I don't know if that makes it better or worse.

We do have to play white noise for him a lot on YouTube and leave my phone unlocked so that will be a fair bit of it.. but still! I'm horrified!

What limits do you set yourself on screen time if you use that feature? I can't go on like this! Over 200 pick ups a day!

I sometimes don’t think it’s a correct amount of screen time tho. I work 7.30 - 6 with an hour break and after work I come home have tea, shower and settle down to watch tv. My phone says I’ve been on it for hours which is impossible when I only go on it on my lunch or have a quick scroll through social media when I finish Hmm

I'm trying to reduce mine too, I've bought some paperbacks so I can sit and read actual stories instead of constantly scrolling.
