When my daughter was a baby I treated my phone like a landline. It was in one place - in the kitchen. Only when she was asleep I would use it. Also not when breastfeeding. I didn’t want her look up at me and see me like that.

I have one tip for parents who like to log sleeping / feeding times and amounts, etc of their baby.. a notebook and a pen works totally fine, you don't need an app for it! Kids even get curious about the writing bit.. (at some point of course, it is stimulating), imho, a win-win

Could you post a link to the study? I’m a public school teacher and am always harping on limited screen time. Would like to read the research myself.

Like many research journals it’s paywalled, but here’s the link. If you google the primary author’s name there are some newspaper and magazine stories that hit the highlights.

It’s wonderful how infants “speak” with their whole “selves”— her arms and legs, torso, head — all that energy!

So sweet and squeezy!!

When around your children— We should probably— Treat phones and tablets like a drug (or medicine) or, like food (candy, etc) or drink we don’t want to expose children too —without having to explain ourselves.

A very important point. Too often I see parents and child board a bus and the parent get out their phone while the infant lies there or searches wildly for some stimulation. Shame.

Used to pass Infants School (Elementary) on nice, middle class estate Sad to see parents walking children to school or pushing prams & buggies (strollers) back home But ignoring their children as looking at phones🤳 Not quick glance or quickly keying in message But continual Sad

I thought I heard the baby try to mimic mom’s “I love you” both times. 🤷♀️
