I need ideas to keep 8 week old entertained during the day. He'll only nap for short periods of time and as soon as I put him down he starts crying. He has a rocker and I set it up in front of the tv and put colourful cartoons on which keeps him occupied for a while but as soon as I leave the room he starts crying again until I come back. I can get nothing done!

@tg123456789, I have to bounce Harrison on my knee and talk to him or wriggle his toys in front of him haha it's very cute but the house is always a mess because I can't get anything done! There's 3 baskets of clean laundry that have been waiting to be put away for the past 2 weeks! 😂

I do as @tg123456789 mentioned. If Max won't settle I'll take him into the room I'm doing something in. I don't try & do loads if he's awake I'll wait till he's asleep. The more he's used to being put down he'll slowly start to be able to entertain himself. But it won't be for long. Max does like 10mins on the mat 20mins in bouncer then cuddles and play time with me then hopefully a nap! I try & mix it up a bit for him lol.
