[quote=Anonymous]I'm a bit conflicted with this one. On one hand I completely understand what you're saying. You want your baby to get enough attention. How long have the baby and 3 y/o been in her care? Honestly, at 3 months old you are managing them. At 3 months, they're still sleeping and eating every 3 hours. There really isn't much time left for "play." At that age, play consists of making faces at them, doing some tummy time, showing them different toys and talking to them. Is she doing any of that? Does she stick the baby in bouncer and ignore him? Your 3 yo can be entertained quietly for 30-45 minutes at a time? If so, that is amazing and I have never seen it. She's probably still trying to get in a groove. You've had 3 months of intense bonding time with this little person. She's most likely trying to figure out how it's all going to work. Make her aware of your expectations, offer assistance if she needs it and allow them the time to actually bond.[/quote]
