Yah, when they are not asleep, have to play with them. Sometimes, when I do housework / cook, I place him in the bouncer and in a position where he can see him.. then let him entertain himself for a while.Yes , me too. I think at this age, it's normal for them to cat nap already

He likes to bite the teats alot and I will take it out whenever he does that. I wonder if he is teething but he is still only 2 months+??
my son drinks every 1.5hr when he 2 mths plus to about 3 . Yah, when they are not asleep, have to play with them. Sometimes, when I do housework / cook, I place him in the bouncer and in a position where he can see him.. then let him entertain himself for a while.
Now, I nap with him in the afternoon (coz i also very tired) on the mattress, he can sleep for an hour at a go.
Sometimes I sling him and he will also sleep longer and I can do my housework / reading / quiet time concurrently.
When you bring him down for evening walks, do you put him in a stroller or carry him ?
These few days, he super fussy with irregular feeding amount and timing and this is driving me nuts.. (like stock market, up down up down) I really don't know how to encourage him to drink more milk. really worried will he gain weight with so little milk intake ? He will "eat his drumsticks" or want to bite my fingers when I place near his mouth and appear very hungry. But when given milk, he only drink a little
when u wash his gum, try to feel his gum... is it soft or hard? if it is hard, ur son is teething for sure!Yah, when they are not asleep, have to play with them.

Time flies, baby is already 3 months old. Ironically, it's actually more enjoyable and relaxing with 2 kids now cos #1 is more independent and #2 is very easy-going. When I'm busy with something, and baby fusses for attention, the GorGor will entertain him. Ha, my little helper!
For longer nap, I usually use the sling or swaddle. Afternoon, all 3 of us take a long nap together.
After trimming fingernails, need to file it for rounded edges. My baby nail clippers come with file.
Thankfully, his feeds are spaced to 3-4 hours at night now. Think boys have bigger appetite?
When he's awake, GorGor and I play/talk to him for a while, put him under mobile or mini-gym, play music, then he'd be in sling following me round the house (meal-time, homeschooling GorGor, etc.)
He may "attend lesson" with us or sleep while we're doing stuff. We include him for storytime. I also try to show him some black/white flashcards for visual stimulation and to train his attention span for future learning.
When GorGor attends music class with Daddy, then I finally get 1-to-1 time with baby. Do exercise and play in front of mirror for 1 hour until he's so tired. Haha!
