What do you do during wake windows? 8 week old

Following as I have the same issue. I also feel like she gets overstimulated easily so gets fussy after a while if I try to entertain her too much!

my baby is the same ( 3 months now). she doesn’t like anything, she’s getting better at being put down thankfully. i honestly just talk to her, rant, play around with her during her wake windows. ill tell her about pregnancy, life before how i feel now. it’s a little strange but it stopped me from getting bored 😂😂. idk if this will help as its not really activities but its what i did lol xx

Give her a tour of the house, narrate your day. I put her in the sling and just do housework and tell her what I’m doing. Just keep chatting, your face and voice is the best entertainment

My little one is 3 months and like Chloe I don’t do loads of activities, she has a fisher price play mat that she enjoys for about 10 mins a day, she hates tummy time on the floor so I gave up on that. I sit and talk at her a lot, but also she loves a dance round the living room to dancing fruit 😂

Also in the sling she tends to fall asleep faster lol

Yeah I just take mine from room to room as I hang washing up or do the dishes or fold clothes & just chat away with what I’m doing! Babies this age honestly doesn’t need much!

Mine is now 3 months but he has always loved going outside, down on picnic rug outside, being carried around and looking at trees etc.
At that age I’d also just go to coffee shops/meet other mums as it’s much easier if you’re chatting to keep them entertained but just watching the interactions.

Fisher Price Kick and Play Piano, both my kids have loved it.
Other than that he follows me around the house, sits in his swing chair while I have a shower, watches me hoover, sometimes I take him round the garden and let him smell different flowers. Sometimes I show him the inside of the fridge 🤷🏻‍♀️
Everything is interesting when you’re so new to the world 😂

I second the fisher play piano mat thing - we got a perfect condition one from vinted! Gives me 15 mins a few times a day not holding her- then will also sit in the bouncer and press the piano keys x

I have a soft ball with a jangly bell inside and I like to sit her in her rocker/bouncer and play "catch" with her (throwing the ball towards her at very close range and cheering when it lands on her chest/between her feet, and booing when it rolls away) 😂
She also likes being read to!

O balls are also good for then to practice grasping. Both of mine have also liked me waving random clothes overhead their heads. (You can combined with hanging up or taking down washing 😂)
