How are we getting through the days?

Baby is four months old and honestly I am so bored and so sick of being at home.

On non 30+ days we go for walks or baby class or coffee etc so we’re out the house for a few hours but next 3 are killer again so we’re stuck in the house (no shady place to put baby down in the garden, we also have vaccines and I am super pale and can’t cope with the walking about in heat either and have no car)

I am so bored. I am sick of tv I can’t be bothered to read my book. The blinds and curtains are shut to keep the heat out so it’s dark and miserable. I am not someone who copes well being stuck inside and I didn’t expect to be like this in the summer.

Baby does the rotation of play mat, songs, tummy time, feeding, nappy, contact nap etc and I seem
To be staring into space or doom scrolling whilst she sleeps.

How are others managing on stay in the house days?
