[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think OP is just bored. OP, wear baby in a carrier, and talk and sing to them all day. Go outside, go to the store, meet people. More stimulation than they'll get from the perfectly developmentally appropriate toy.[/quote]

Agree.

Also, there is controversy over weather you need to be constantly talking to your infant. I am of the opinion that you do not need to tell your baby everything you're doing and constantly be talking to them, however many people do this and I doubt it's harmful. I chat a bit and coo but I'm not talking 100% of the time. Singing is fun too. No need to actually sing baby songs but if that's what you like it's fine too.

Baby will learn plenty from just doing your daily thing. Obviously don't leave them in their infant seat all day long but if you're wearing them or carrying them, they'll learn plenty. I run errands, get coffee, take care of things around the house, walk the dog, etc. I doubt there's actual need to do anything infant specific at this age. That's not to say it's [/i]bad[i] to read or play with your baby. If that's what works best for you to bond with your baby then go for it! :) Just know that at the end of the day you realize you haven't read your baby a book or sat and played with their toys, don't feel bad!
