I would way rather my house be a mess than lay my daughter down while she's awake and miss out on bonding time with her. If I can get some cleaning done while she's sleeping that's good, but if she's awake most of the day my house will be messy later and that's all there is to it.
@teambarnes, I've done it a few times but I think it will be easier when she's a little bit older because she still loses control of her head sometimes so I get nervous with the carrier I have it doesn't really support her head very well. @teambarnes exactly! I'll just have full on conversations with her, or if I shower I take her with me, I'll read to her or put on a Disney movie and talk to her about it and sing to her. I just don't feel right laying her somewhere to stare off into space so I can get things done. I'll wait til she's napping to clean and sometimes if I got barely any sleep the night before I'll nap with her so sometimes it just doesn't get done. I'm lucky though to have an understanding husband lol😀
