New baby and older sibling

[welshy2240]

I have a 3 year old and 3 month old and feel like I'm neglecting the older child. I'm not yet confident/in enough of a routine to take both of them out very far on my own. We have also been plagued with colds/illness for the last couple of months which doesn't help. Don't get me wrong we aren't sat at home every day but I guess I'm just looking for reassurance. Am I overthinking things? In a couple of months, once the baby is older, it will be easier to get about?

It does get easier to get out and about once the baby is older. But don't worry, as long as you aren't point-blank ignoring your 3 year old you are doing fine. while your 3 month old sleeps, you can do craft and colouring activities (which don't require much effort on your part). eg: custom name tracing worksheets (these link are useful for pencil grip). redtedart also have some fab ideas.) all the best x
