dont worry about cleaning the home. Do that if you get a few minutes while baby sleeps. Thats what I do. I think before we have a baby we imagine ourselves to be this amazing housewife - domestic godess - mother figure. It isnt like that while they are very little. MAybe when they are 2 or 3 yes, but until then my godliness is put on hold. WHen baby is awake he needs all my attention, unless he is happy to give me 5 minutes while I do something nearby (eg ironing while he's playing on his mat, but more often than not he wants me to play with him. I've no doubt this'll relax a bit as he ages), but usually I'm playing or taking him out somewhere - on a walk or shopping etc, anywhere where there are new sights and sounds for him.

as for studying I dont know - do it in the evening when baby is asleep? Or get a babysitter for a few hours? I really dont see how someone can be a full time mum and study full time.wowser..that's like 2 full time jobs!

Buy a nursery rhyme cd or dvd and use that to help you sing adn make actions with your baby.

I have an 45 minutes play time at 5'oclock everyday. I put her changing mat on the floor, and put her on her tummy with toys in front of her. Then i'll sit her up inbetween my legs and read books to her. Then lie her on her changing mat and show her teddys and let her listen them play music. Other than that playtime, She just goes in her swing or bouncy chair and i'll talk to her in them. There's not much I can do with her yet as she still sleeps quite abit. So when she's awake I make the most of it.
