What do you do with a baby all day?
Im lost on what to do with my baby all day, she's almost six months old. I do the usual, feed her, change her diaper, read her books, play with her, sing her the abc's, help her teething and give her baths. But after all that I just sit there and I'm like, what do I do now? I feel pressured to do something with her 24/7. Read her another book. Play with her more. I feel bad when she just plays with her toys and I'm doing something else or I'm on my phone. I know your not supposed to entertain a already entertained baby. But I feel like I'm abandoning her if I don't give her 24/7 attention. Is this normal?
Edit: Thank you for all the advice so quickly. I definitely have a different outlook now than I did before. This definitely helped me.
