Mine gets a ton...but she's in a daycare class with many other babies.
-
Tons at daycare. Plus some of our best friends have a baby who is 4 months older than M and they hang out a fair amount and between our two next door neighbors there are 4 kids ranging from 10months to 4 years.
-
My LO is in a nanny share, so she plays with one other baby all day from M-F. Plus our nanny has a nanny friend in the area so that toddler plays with them a few times a week.
We occasionally go to a neighborhood singalong or cafe that has a playroom on the weekends.
-
Hardly any, I was a stay at home mom for the first two years and it was mostly just the two of us.
-
Not much until recently- baby swim once a week from 2 months old, but we started taking him to the gym daycare at 16 months, now he goes most days for an hour or so. He hadn't figured out playing too much yet, but he likes to follow and watch the older kids (not many his age).
-
Tons at day care during the day.
-
Lots! Xander's in daycare full-time and I think there are 6 other infants in his room.
-
Not a lot, unfortunately. He has baby hour at the library once a week and a play group date at the park every week or two.
-
Tons at daycare but all of our baby friends are newborns so they're still too little for playdates.
It was so cute, they wrote on L's sheet the other day that he sat with the bigger babies at the table when they had snack (bc he was being a needy little thing, but they didn't write that part.)
-
She's in daycare 3x a week, so she gets a lot of interaction with other babes. It's one reason why I really don't mind that she's in daycare.
-
I'm a SAHM, and she doesn't get daily baby interaction. She plays with other babies at least 3-4x a week though.
-
A fair amount...we do 3 classes a week with babies his age/older, and we meet up with other SAHMs and their kids a few times a week as well.
-
He stays in the nursery at church every week with other babies his age, we do a baby hour at the library every week and he has a cousin 3 months younger than him that he gets playtime with pretty often too
-
A lot! She started daycare at 12 weeks. My younger one doesn't get a lot of interaction with other babies right now.
-
Practically none. At some point that will change.
-
Quite a bit.
A lot at daycare. We have a friend with a baby close to her age. She has 2 cousins that we see on the weekends, one is a year older, but that gap will seem smaller as they get older.
-
Between 1-3 times a week we play with other babies. I'm a stay-at-home mom but we have a play date once a week + most of my 4 year-old's friends have siblings that are between 1-2 so she plays with them when he has play dates too.
-
We go to library 2-3 times a week, we're going to start going to music class, and she sees her baby cousin often. We used to do gymboree but they moved it to be too far away.
-
So far only once a week at library story time

not a lot
i work part time and it seems like all the activities in some mom's groups or baby classes seem to fall on the days that i am working, of course!
-
@scg00387: eek that's not cool!! is she being mean or something???
-
She has a daycare boyfriend who is very close in age, they love each other. We also have several friends/families with kids her age that she sees usually every week or every other week.
-
@NovBaby1112: Not really, just flaky. I've tried two months in a row to go to a "trial" event and she either didn't follow up to give me the address or the second time, gave me the wrong day (no one was there). I feel like a desperate loner to keep emailing her but.. I want my little guy to get out and play!
-
@scg00387: ugh, that's aggravating!! i would keep emailing her tho too
-
Not much since I stay home with LO. We are working on social interaction with him, but it's hard to adjust. Luckily he has cousins close in age.
-
Umm none at all! He's not in daycare and we don't have playdates or anything. I really need to find him some little buddies because he is so fascinated when he sees other kids his age!
-
Once a week, we have a baby class we attend, but that's it! I'm a SAHM, and an anti-social one at that!
-
Honestly, not a ton. We do a playdate with his cousin who is 6 months older about once a month. And he'll see other kids at the park, church nursery, and YMCA pool/day care. But it's not consistent.
At this point he's young so I am not too worried about it, but I know I should be more proactive about it now that he's a toddler! It's just so hard to meet other people with kids.
-
I'm a sahm and dd got a ton! We started with a local moms coffee hour once a week at about 6wks, then kept adding things until we had something to do everyday. It really helped maintain my sanity!
-
When she was a baby, not a ton. Much more now as a toddler since I've made friends here and there are so many fun things to do.
-
I'm trying to do better in this department. M is with a babysitter while I go to work 2 days / week but the babysitter's kids are 3 and older. We've had a few recent playdates with kids closer to M's age (9 months) and just signed up for a group with a few of them. She loves it!
